How to confirm scope
Sunshine Air Repairs holds FAA Part 145 ratings for Accessories, Instruments, Airframe and Radio. Those approvals are written against part numbers, so a unit installed on an ATR 42 / 72 may well be supported even when the aircraft is not listed anywhere on this site.
Platform relevance identifies where current component capability aligns. It does not imply customer endorsement or contract history.
