Avionics FAQ

It is Southeast Aerospace's intention to transact business in the most upfront, honest, and transparent manner possible with its customers. Some companies offer lower exchange prices to entice customers to purchase from them and then consistently bill the customer in the future when the repair cost exceeds their original price collected.

Southeast Aerospace constantly reviews its exchange prices to prevent post-transaction billings to the customer as much as possible. In some cases, certain units include special conditions or circumstances that could result in higher than normal repair costs or render the unit uneconomical to repair. Southeast Aerospace informs customers of these special conditions up front before the transaction is processed, instead of letting the customer find out through excessive additional billing after the transaction.

Some examples of these special conditions on units may include the following:
  • Damaged or modified units uneconomical to restore or reconfigure
  • Defective, major component assemblies such as magnetrons, PA tubes, etc.
  • Obsolete or unavailable service parts from the OEM
  • Unsupportable or obsolete sub-assemblies
In many cases, these conditions are reflected through a specific serial number range and/or Service Bulletin (Mod) status on a unit.

As part of our commitment to integrity, quality, and customer service your SEA associate will always inform you of any special core conditions before any exchange transaction is processed.
