Cessna's dealer and service network would probably make Columbia owners
happy.

Since buying an in-warranty Cessna, I've found the factory phone support
helpful and easy to access; they even return phone calls.

The Cessna Service Center system is less agreeable. My nearest CSC is a shop
50 miles away in Pensacola, and they are not Cessna experts by their own
admission. Up until last year, they were a Piper dealer. Fortunately, I
don't have to depend on them for avionics warranty work, since there is a
Garmin & Bendix/King dealer at BFM.
