Master the gear rigging procedure you can't learn from a manual
The electromechanical landing gear on Twin Cessnas demands a rigging procedure that's precise, specialized, and best learned hands-on. This two-day workshop, held at TAS Aviation's facility in Defiance, Ohio, is a deep dive into the complete process for properly rigging these systems — taught by the people who do it every day.
Born out of member requests for more hands-on, technical learning, the Gear Rigging Workshop has become a staple educational course offered periodically throughout the year. Each session is deliberately small: just four participants per class, so everyone gets time on the aircraft and direct access to the instructors.
Who this class is for
This workshop is designed for A&P-certified technicians and those who actively maintain their own aircraft. Owners and operators are welcome to register, but be prepared: the course is conducted at a technician knowledge level, and a working understanding of basic aircraft maintenance is expected.
If you work on twin Cessna landing gear — or want to be able to — this is the most focused instruction available on the subject.
What you'll get
- Two full days of intensive, hands-on instruction at TAS Aviation's training facility
- The complete rigging procedure for electromechanical landing gear systems, step by step
- A four-person class size that guarantees individual attention and real time on the equipment
- Practical depth you can't get from a manual — the techniques, checks, and judgment calls that come from decades of twin Cessna gear work
