Garmin avionics installation,
without the ferry-flight runaround.

A Garmin shop for aircraft owners between the big-city markets.
Roger Wilco Aviation Services gives Northern Plains aircraft owners a certified Garmin dealer and FAA-certificated repair station at Chan Gurney Municipal Airport in Yankton, South Dakota. Instead of ferrying a piston single or light twin across multiple states for a panel upgrade, owners can work with a shop built around Garmin avionics, aircraft maintenance, panel fabrication, and return-to-service documentation under one roof.
RWAS supports Garmin installation projects for South Dakota, Nebraska, Iowa, Minnesota, and North Dakota operators, with practical quoting, aircraft review, product sourcing, fabrication, wiring, testing, and logbook documentation handled by the same team.
Cessna 182RG Garmin panel work - installation, fabrication, and finishing coordinated through RWAS.
Modern Garmin panels, scoped around the airplane.
A good avionics quote is not just a cart of boxes. RWAS starts with the aircraft, mission, existing equipment, certification path, panel space, wiring condition, antenna locations, electrical load, and owner priorities. From there, the shop can recommend a Garmin path that fits the airplane instead of forcing every aircraft into the same panel.
G3X Touch
Glass-cockpit upgrades with ADAHRS, engine information, synthetic vision, and display planning.
GTN 650Xi / GTN 750Xi
WAAS GPS/NAV/COMM navigator installs, panel integration, and database-ready flight-deck workflow.
GFC 500 Autopilot
Retrofit autopilot planning for eligible aircraft, including servo, control, and integration review.
GI 275, G5, GTX, GMA, and ADS-B
Instrument, transponder, audio-panel, and ADS-B Out compliance work.
Panel fabrication
In-house CAD, fiber laser cutting, powder coating, and UV printing support for clean installations.
Start with the mission, then build the equipment list.
For a useful Garmin quote, RWAS needs the aircraft make and model, N-number, current panel photos, equipment list, desired capabilities, and any known maintenance or electrical issues. A simple GPS replacement, an autopilot install, and a full glass-panel conversion are very different projects even when the product names overlap.
Owners can sketch a starting point in the panel planner, browse Garmin collections for product context, or send the shop a direct quote request. RWAS will still review eligibility, certification path, lead time, aircraft downtime, and fabrication needs before work begins.
Garmin equipment selection is only one part of the project; installation planning controls the outcome.
Avionics work tied back to airworthiness.
RWAS is not only a reseller. The shop operates as an FAA Part 145 repair station with airframe, instrument, radio, NDT, and fabrication capability. That matters when a Garmin installation exposes aging wiring, a panel structure problem, a required placard, a weight-and-balance update, or a maintenance finding that has to be resolved before the aircraft leaves.
The goal is a finished aircraft that works as a system: legal, documented, readable, serviceable, and matched to how the owner actually flies.
Send the airplane, the mission, and the must-haves.
If you are comparing Garmin options, include your home airport, typical trips, IFR/VFR use, current panel photos, must-have equipment, and ideal downtime window. RWAS will respond with the next practical step instead of a generic brochure answer.
