proud Authorized Dealer For:
Avionics. Engines. Alterations. Annuals.
About the shop
We began in 2014 as Arispe Aviation, providing mobile avionics installation and troubleshooting services along with maintenance and inspections. The services provided by Arispe Aviation in the DFW area were so well received that we established a permanent location at Aerocountry Airport with over 10,000 square feet of shop space and began doing business as Airspeed & Attitude. Along the way, we became trusted dealers for Avidyne, Aspen, Bendix King, and Dynon just to name a few.
We are a family owned & run business and understand that your family members’ lives are in our hands when you entrust us to care for your aircraft.
About the team
Anthony Arispe: President / A&P / IA
Anthony Arispe began his training in General Aviation under the tutor of 4 mechanics with over 100 years of combined experience. After receiving his A&P, he went on to continue his training under a Certified Repair Station providing avionics installations. Because of Anthony's training & expertise, he was soon invited to join a team with the Department of Defense to maintain & service aircraft for the Army, Marines & Airforce both overseas & across the US. After acquiring his IA, Anthony made the decision to return to the Dallas metroplex, start a family, & pursue his lifelong dream of creating a General Aviation Installation & Repair Service Center.
In 2018, Anthony was an AMT Next Gen 40 Under 40 Award Winner. He is also a private pilot and owner of two Cessna 172’s.
When he's not in the shop, Anthony enjoys spending his time riding his motorcycle, working out, or paddle boarding with his wife & 2 young daughters.
Jamie Arispe: CFO / CFI
Jamie Arispe began her career in aviation by supporting Anthony's decision to travel with the Department of Defense, though it wasn't long before aviation became as much a part of her life as it was Anthony's. Jamie is a CFI & proud to raise her 2 beautiful daughters in an aviation environment. With a decade's worth of experience in banking, finance & lending, she has been the key member to Airspeed & Attitude's success through marketing, management, & accounting. Jamie has continued her training in aviation to provide clients with the knowledge and information on the latest technology for your legacy aircraft.
When she's not managing the business or teaching flight lessons, Jamie enjoys working out, riding her motorcycle, and escaping to the lake with her family for some paddle boarding.
Connor Griggs: A&P Intern
Connor's interest in aviation stems all the way back to his childhood, when he found himself jumping anything & everything possible to get into the air. After spending some time at the University of North Texas studying IT, Connor soon realized he was not made for sitting at computers all day and decided to pursue his A&P at Airspeed & Attitude.
When he's not working, Connor spends his time playing guitar, camping, and riding his Harley with his girlfriend Lia.
Mikey Pawlik: A&P Intern
Mikey's interest in aviation dates back to his dad taking him to the Addison field, parking near the runway and watching the planes come and go as a kid. After graduating high school, Mikey joined Airspeed & Attitude in order to pursue both his A&P and pilot's license, and later plans on moving toward an Aeronautical Engineering degree.
When he's not at the shop, Mikey likes to spend his time restoring his ‘87 Chevy Blazer, exploring back roads on his motorcycle, or gilling out with his girlfriend, Jessica, and friends.
