Yep. Have had dealings with them several times over the years. Andy is helpful and the shop is quick and properly priced. I gladly use them when we are up there and broken.

I second what Mark says.

When we had a YXS sub base, Hill was our AMO. Andy is a great guy and engineer. Good work/pricing and turnaround. Good enough that sometimes we would go to him for the inspection rather than bring it home. That says it all right there...

Don't hesitate to deal with Hill is the bottom line.

Same here - when I was involved in aerial photography we had our plane serviced there. Good work and easy to deal with those folks.
Did he ever sell that amphib Otter?

Andy came in on a Sunday to help me out with a flat tire, caused by the shell. I'll be parking at Andy's esso any time I'm there from now on.

I stopped in about 7 years ago in a 172 and just needed fuel and parking. Top notch service, friendly staff.

Couldn't remember who I talked to, but I told him I was an AME and he gave me the grand tour of the place. They were rebuilding a SeeBee (at the same time I was rebuilding a Lake Buccaneer) so we traded a few war stories and then had a gander at a Bonanza they fished off a sand bar with a hole in the case the size of my fist.

One of the nicest places I've stopped at during my travels...
