In the Los Angeles area, pilots of Cessna and Cirrus single-engine aircraft have access to a number of 24-hour AOG (Aircraft on Ground) repair services. These services are crucial for getting you back in the air quickly and are often provided by mobile repair teams. The Aero Center is a specialist in this type of rapid response and offers 24/7 service for single-engine and twin-piston aircraft across California, Arizona, and Nevada.

Common Repair Issues
Our FAA-certified A&P (Airframe and Powerplant) mechanics have extensive experience with a wide range of Cessna and Cirrus aircraft. We can handle a variety of emergency repairs, including:
- Engine and Propeller Issues: Problems like a rough-running engine, low oil pressure, or a propeller that’s out of balance are critical AOG events. We can diagnose and repair these issues on-site, from faulty magnetos and fuel systems to dynamic propeller balancing.
- Electrical and Avionics Problems: A malfunctioning transponder or a failed alternator can make an aircraft unairworthy. Our technicians are skilled at diagnosing and repairing these complex electrical faults to ensure your aircraft is compliant and safe to fly.
- Composite Airframe Repair: For Cirrus aircraft, the composite airframe requires specialized repair techniques for any structural damage. Our technicians are skilled in composite repair, using manufacturer-approved methods to ensure the fix is durable and compliant with airworthiness standards.
