Frequently asked questions
- Which aircraft do you work on?
- Piston singles and twins (Cessna, Piper, Beechcraft, Cirrus, Diamond and more), turboprops including the Beechcraft King Air series and the Epic E1000, and light jets such as the Cessna Citation. Call with your make and model and we will tell you straight away whether it is a fit.
- Are you an Epic Authorized Service Center?
- Yes. Islander Aviation is an Epic Aircraft Authorized Service Center for maintenance and service of the E1000 series. We do not sell Epic aircraft.
- Do you handle diesel-engine aircraft?
- Yes. We are an OEM-authorized service center for Continental Diesel (CD-100 series) engines, and both Continental CD and Austro Engine AE300/AE330 engines are on our FAA Part 145 capability list under the engine rating, alongside every Diamond airframe.
- Is turbine work done under the Part 145 certificate?
- Partly. The Epic E1000 and Cessna 208 Caravan are on our FAA-accepted Capability List (Rev. 8), so their inspections, repairs and alterations are repair-station work, and the PT6A-67A engine is on our engine rating. King Air, Citation and Pilatus airframes are not on the list, and that work is still performed by Islander — as Part 91 maintenance signed off by our FAA-certificated A&P and IA mechanics. We say which applies before work starts.
Part 145 and Part 91 — who signs the work
Islander Aviation (BMV Air Center LLC) is an FAA Part 145 repair station, certificate 6KFR481C, with limited airframe, engine, instrument and radio ratings. Our FAA-accepted Capability List (Rev. 8, 29 September 2026) covers airframe inspections, repairs and alterations on Beechcraft, Piper, Cessna, Cirrus, Diamond Aircraft, Epic Aircraft aircraft; inspections and minor repair of Lycoming, Continental, Austro Engine, Pratt & Whitney Canada engines; and pitot-static, transponder, ADS-B and ELT certifications on the listed makes. Overhauls are not performed under the certificate.
Anything not covered under our Part 145 capability list — King Air, Citation and Pilatus airframes, for example — is still performed by Islander Aviation, as Part 91 maintenance signed off by our FAA-certificated A&P and IA mechanics. Engine overhauls are coordinated with a specialist engine shop.
