Autopilots Central

Autopilots Central specialises in autopilot and instrument service. It is a dealer and warranty service facility for the major avionics brands and keeps overhauled exchange gyros and autopilot components in stock, so an aircraft with a failed unit can often be returned to service without waiting for a repair. The shop also does general avionics installations and troubleshooting.

Sparks Aviation

Sparks Aviation handles aircraft maintenance, airframe and engine work, and runs the FBO with hangar space and fuel. The two businesses sit at the same address, which lets an owner combine an annual inspection with avionics work in one visit.

What the Cirrus listing means

Cirrus Aircraft publishes its own locator of authorized service centers and lists the qualifications each center holds. An Authorized Service Center is approved by Cirrus for warranty and maintenance work on the SR series; a Platinum Service Center is the higher tier Cirrus awards to selected centers. Autopilots Central / Sparks Aviation holds the Platinum designation and is listed with a full avionics facility, which Cirrus reserves for centers that can do complete avionics work rather than line service only. The parachute system (CAPS) has a 10-year overhaul and a 6-year line cutter replacement, and only centers listed for CAPS overhaul do that work in house. Qualifications change, so confirm the current list with the center or the Cirrus locator before booking. Other authorized centers nearby are on the Cirrus service center directory.
