From the owner
“Airteam has helped us to bring this airplane into the modern world. The full process was done really well, from planning, during the work, to after pick up. The process started with a really professional and experienced planning process. We discussed all items, the functionalities and the compatibility (which is not straight forward) During the works, there was a digital communication channel. We were provided regular updates. All questions and comments were answered within minutes. And the result is awesome! It is a different plane. Everything works as expected and was perfectly configured. I would pick the same the choice of avionics again, and I can recommend Airteam to anyone for the conversion!”
