In November 2013, some of Islip Avionics' staff posed with

at the service center's home base on Long Island MacArthur Airport.

work to do to get the airplane ready for the trip. We had
to move up the schedule by about four weeks. We were
concerned the airplane would not be able to fly back
to its base in Geneseo, New York, before the weather
deteriorated. This was one of the best decisions we made.
The weather in the Northeast was terrible this winter."
Kattermann's staff, along with additional volunteers,
donated nearly 40 days and some 140 to 150 man hours in all.
"There were days and evenings where these great people
worked in the cold and rain just to get it done," Kattermann
said. "I cannot thank my staff enough."
Specializing in restoration
Whiskey 7 is among the many restoration projects
Kattermann's crew has tackled over the years. In
addition to providing avionics sales, service and support
for single-engine piston through multi-engine corporate
jets, Islip Avionics specializes in design, approval and
installation of custom panel upgrades for older aircraft.

About 70 percent of the company's avionics and
maintenance work is on aircraft older than 20 years. Of
those, half are more than 50 years old.
"I have owned several Beechcraft Model 18
airplanes," Kattermann said. "We have restored and
maintained several more of these great airplanes. We just
completed a restoration of the last Beech 18 ever built,
S/N BA- 764. We have a small specialty market on the
Morane-Saulnier MS.760 Paris jets. We do restorations,
maintenance and custom avionics for these fun airplanes.
And, yes, I am type-rated in them, and have made
several trips to Oshkosh and Sun-n-Fun."
In 1997, Islip Avionics completed an electrical system
upgrade, as well as an avionics and instrument package
installation on a Folland Gnat T2, a former British
military trainer operated by the Red Arrows Royal Air
Force Aerobatic Team.
