Hey all, buying my first aircraft and it's located Yellowknife. Looking on information on how I can find a ame for an Inspection and any prebuy advise from someone who's purchased a aircraft before.
Thanks all!

Re: Cessna prebuy inspection In Yellowknife
Ideally you fly your own mechanic up there to inspect it
Realistically you'll likely need to find a local mechanic who hasn't worked on the plane before. Search a bit online and start calling around . You'll likely find someone.
Be prepared to give them a list of things you want them to check out.
As an AvCanada discussion grows longer:
-the probability of 'entitlement' being mentioned, approaches 1
-one will be accused of using bad airmanship

What digits_ said but also have your local AME do a serious comb through the maintenance records before you even make the trip. There may be red flags that would make the purchase not worth doing. That is unless you're willing to sink a ton of extra money into it because you just have to own this particular bird.
