SouthSeas Ventures

South Seas Ventures, Inc. was founded in 2001 by Peter Burgher. Pete was frustrated with factory parts for his Beechcraft Baron. What he found were parts that had not been engineered into better solutions when better solutions were obvious. In order to ensure that he did not use 'unapproved' parts on his aircraft, Pete set out to engineer those better solutions and get the necessary FAA approvals. Hence, SSV was created, and the inaugural parts are the Door Striker Plate, the Battery Drain Vent Fairing, and the Replacement Step, all for Bonanzas and Barons.

Since that time, Michael Kobylik has taken over the leadership of SSV and, working together with Pete, began developing more parts for the FAA approval process and, ultimately, making them available to the aviation community. Currently, there are over ten parts working their way through the design and approval process. Many more parts are in the 'back-of-the-napkin' stage.

SSV, Inc. is committed to engineering better solutions to problems that can be found on many aircraft. Their philosophy and direction are to engineer, manufacture, and sell innovative products and services to the aerospace and aviation community.
