Cirrus Aircraft Maintenance & Inspections
Cirrus Aircraft Maintenance & Inspections
Canada West Avionics (CWA) proudly serves as an Authorized Cirrus Service Center, a distinction granted only to facilities that meet Cirrus’s stringent training, tooling, and quality standards. Our technicians have undergone factory-approved maintenance training, allowing us to provide specialized care for both new and pre-owned Cirrus piston models. Whether you need a routine check or a warranty repair, we bring official Cirrus guidelines and deep expertise to every aircraft we service.
Inspection Intervals
To keep your Cirrus in optimal condition, certain inspections and maintenance actions are required based on both flight hours and calendar time.
- Every 50 Hours: Oil change and inspection
- Every 100 & 200 Hours: Deeper engine and airframe checks
- Annual Inspections: Required once per year, covering the airframe, engine, and avionics
- CAPS Parachute System: Specialized inspections and component replacements at 5- and 10-year intervals
In addition, each aircraft must undergo an annual inspection that addresses the airframe, engine, and avionics. By following these scheduled checkpoints, owners can maintain their aircraft’s reliability, preserve its value, and promote safe flight operations.
Note: Actual service requirements can vary based on commercial vs. private use, warranty conditions, and progressive inspection programs.
Specialized Cirrus Parachute (CAPS) Maintenance
Cirrus aircraft are known for their innovative Cirrus Airframe Parachute System (CAPS). Because it is a life-saving device designed to deploy if the pilot encounters an otherwise unavoidable emergency, CAPS receives its own dedicated maintenance and inspection schedule.
- We handle required inspections and component replacements.
- Our technicians are trained and equipped to maintain the parachute system to factory standards.

I approached Gordon Bott at Canada West Avionics at CZBB (Boundary Bay) before Christmas about an Aerospace Logic fuel gage, an AOA, and some small lighting issues. He promised me a quote as soon as possible.
He very kindly, and very quickly had the pitch servo removed and we confirmed that one of the switches was broken. He kept the servo ad will order the parts today.
Really good service to this point.

“Hello Canada West team!!!!
I just wanted to reach out and say Thank You!! Everything looks great and seems to be functioning well!
I appreciate the efforts you all put in! I know that little plane can be a pain since it’s so small and compact with no room to do anything… but I appreciate that you guys did it, and everything turned out great.”
