Avionics Place!!!
Pilots
and aircraft owners from the East Coast and West Coast and everywhere
in between come to Avionics Place for their avionics needs. We are an
FAA Repair station that has been located at the Chicago/Rockford Airport
in Rockford Illinois since 1981 and have been in business since 1974.
We have a dedicated 6550 square foot hangar facility with a complete
electronics shop. We sell and service new and used avionics and
autopilots from the major manufacturers.
For a complete list of manufacturers we work with please see the "Dealerships" page.
We work on all general aviation, experimental and warbird aircraft.
The T-28 Trojan Warbird enjoys
an ever-growing reputation for speed, durability and ease of operation
like no other warbird available. T-28 owners are fanatical about their
aircraft and would never dream of trusting their airframe and power
plant to anyone else but the most caring and experienced hands they can
find. The cockpit should not be different. We understand the exacting
standards of aircraft owners and demand the same from ourselves and our
staff. Sharing the tarmac with Heritage Aero, Aircraft Systems,
Courtesy Aircraft and Superior Plane Aircraft Coatings has afforded us a
unique opportunity to become an authority on Trojan systems and all
variations of those systems.
Our experience is unparalleled and ranges from minor radio squawks to
total restorations and refurbishments. Our shop is one of the only
facilities in the country capable of servicing original slaved compass
systems, repairing original intercoms, and interfacing new solid-state
equipment within the parameters of a true warbird. In our 20 years
experience in working on all models of the T-28, we have also made it
possible to add voice activation to the original mil-spec ICS - a task
previously thought impossible.
We possess the knowledge, experience, and facilities to make your
aircraft project quick, economic, and carefree. After talking with Dave
and Tony you'll understand why we have been as successful as we have.
