Cessna Pilots Association Expands Tech Staff with Addition of Mike Wilson   

            Cessna Pilots Association Executive Director John Frank has expanded CPA’s tech staff by naming Mike Wilson as a CPA Technical Rep.

            Wilson comes to CPA with an extensive background of maintenance of Cessna aircraft. Most recently Mike has been Director of Maintenance and Chief Inspector for a
Part 135 operation and flight school operating a fleet of Cessna aircraft.

            “Mike is an ideal addition to our tech staff and brings years of hands-on, real-world experience in service to our members and their aircraft,” says John Frank.

            Wilson has Inspection Authorization and is a Commercial, Multi-engine pilot as well as a Commercial helicopter pilot. He is a volunteer United States Coast Guard Auxiliary Aircraft Facility Inspector at Airstation San Francisco.

            With the addition of Wilson to its technical staff, CPA will now offer pre-purchase inspection on all models of Cessna aircraft; CPA’s specialized flight control and aircraft rigging on all models of Cessna aircraft; dynamic engine and propeller balancing; and ultrasonic leak detection which is great for finding leaking door seals and exhaust entry points. All these services are now offered to members at the Association’s Educational and Technical Center at Santa Maria, Calif. (SMX).  To schedule any of these services contact Wilson at 805/934-0493 or Mike.wilson@cessna.org.

               In addition Wilson will be an instructor at CPA’s world-renowned Systems and Procedures Seminars on Cessna aircraft. Courses are open to members and non-members. For more information on the courses go to www.cessna.org or telephone 805/934-0493.
