I came across an interesting dilemma. I need work done to my fiberglass lower cowling. For the life of me, I cannot find a repair shop in southerner Arizona that would do the work. I also notice that their are no small job composite shops advertised in Piper or Cessna Flyer, nor in EAA. Are there any places a person can ship items like pants, fairings, and wing tips to be repaired correctly with matching paint? If not, do you think starting up a small parts composite shop would be worth while? I have an individual that graduated from composite fabrication and repair aviation college that is interested in filling this niche. All repairs would come with an 8130-03 repair tag.
