As far as an instructor, I used a gentleman who is an instructor and an FAA examiner. His name is Paul Senyak. He tought me how to fly my twin. I do not know his experience with the single, you might want to give him a call. His number is 1-610-360-0883. As far as a mechanic is concerned, i use Steve Richard, who was based out of Central Jersey Regional Airport. I believe he now works at Solberg Airport. I know someone else that works on Comanches who is based out of Alexandria - his name is Brent Kowalenko. By my standards, both have reasonable rates.
I belong to the NE Tribe. If there is anything else you need, feel free to drop me an email at scott.ducey@harborpoint.com.
Good luck and happy New Year.
