E-AB avionics installations

Are you an E-AB owner or builder needing a solution for your instrument panel? While specializing in the Garmin G3X and AXIS, we will work with you to understand your flying habits and missions to design a panel to help you utilize and enjoy your new aircraft.

What we do

We have experience everywhere from initial conception of the project, to customizing the panel, selecting avionics, laser cutting and etching new instrument panels, installing it all, flight testing, and everything in between. We can help guide your selection of equipment, and help install it to get the most out of your aircraft. We work almost exclusively with Garmin avionics, though we may make exceptions from time to time. With first hand knowledge and hands-on installation experience on the G3X, AXIS, G500TXi, G600TXi, GI275, G5, GTN series, GNS series, and GFC series, we can ensure your airplane gets the panel you deserve.
