  1. Congrats!
  2. Yup! It now lives in the town with the famous Dixie chicken bar!
  3. Look for one in the silent auction, opening soon! Thanks again Dan for your generosity and support of the Money community
  4. Oh so sorry to hear that Dan. Give Fran and your MIL my best. Just came from KLNS with a new owner in his acclaim to KCLL and thought of you guys. Alex will be posting soon and sending out info to attendees I'm sure. I believe the Marriott properties downtown walking distance to American social where the Sat night banquet will be is where most will be staying, but Alex or Dan can confirm. Let's catch up soon, if I can help let me know
  5. I'll be there and looking forward to meeting you. Thanks for your kind donation to the silent auction. The proceeds will 100% go to helping a downed Mooney pilots family at the time of their greatest need
  6. It's white, I don't know the exact brightness rating however
  7. "All pie is good pie"
  8. Ray, as often as you get a different one, that may be the appropriate response
  9. norm, suggest speaking with @Danb, He is one square shooting CPA that drives a TN close to you

  11. It's the sweet spot of singles. The bad: UL could be better The Good: Everything else.
  12. Dear Mooney Enthusiast, We had good VFR weather for our last event, lunch at Williston. Six Mooneys brought 8 people, and we all enjoyed visiting and eating. Our next event will be this Saturday, August 10, at the Tiki at Fort Pierce (FPR). All events start at 11:30. Future events: August 10 Fort Pierce, (FPR). September 14 Winter Haven, (GIF). October 12, Flagler (FIN). Please let me know by Thursday if you are going to try to come so I can give the restaurant an approximate headcount. If you tell me you are coming, and can’t come do not worry about telling me, just do not come. I do not want anyone flying for any reason if they shouldn’t. This year the Mooney Summit will be on September 27 and 28. If you would like to register go to www.mooneysummit.com Hope to see you soon, Dave and Ruth N46DT 352-408-3343
  13. Alex Gertsen went to their booth yesterday and had a "come to the river" discussion with them. One of the Seattle Avionics guys called me at Alex's request to explain their NEW position after a week of blowback. 1) All lifetime subs will be honored and continue to receive chart updates with the existing legacy product. No product updates however will be forthcoming. What it is is what it is henceforth. 2) their new product will not have a lifetime sub nor will the legacy product lifetime sub be transferable. THis is a far more acceptable way of handling things than arbitrary EOL of lifetime subs. EOL of product developement and rolling out a new product with different pricing is ok as far as I am concerned, YMMV. Seattle Avionics in the past had sponsored the Mooney Summit with some lifetime subs and Alex and I felt it important to have them address their integrity posture having been associated with the Mooney Summit. We shall see what the forthcoming email says and what their actions are, but it sounds like they learned a FAFO lesson in short order. On another note, CFI's can obtain the new product for $25/year
  14. Sure wish I had both still! I'm fortunate enough to fly others quite often, DYL. Life ain't so bad...
  15. not taking it to Fairhope like we talked about?
  16. I wish I could, I gave it to a friend after I sold the Bravo and gave up my hangar
  17. I bought some non slip Phillips head #2 bits that don't bugger up the screws by slipping, and a nifty safety wire insertion thingie that looks like a long screwdriver to get that four letter word enhancement oil suction screen on an io360 re safety tied
  18. Alex, thanks for doing this. Any chance you can also set up a new group on X? I realize the old group there is now I accessable, and I'll take the heat for not keeping the keys close to the chest. The popularity of X and tic Tok are on par or exceed FB and instagram (imo) which should provide additional reach.
  19. Dear Mooney Enthusiast, We had great weather for our last event, lunch at Sebring. Six Mooneys brought 10 people, and we all enjoyed visiting and eating. Our next event will be this Saturday, July 13, at the Pyper Kub Cafe at Williston (X60). All events start at 11:30. Future events: July 13 Williston, (X60). August 10 Fort Pierce, (FPR). September 14 Winter Haven, (GIF). Please let me know by Thursday if you are going to try to come so I can give the restaurant an approximate headcount. If you tell me you are coming, and can’t come do not worry about telling me, just do not come. I do not want anyone flying for any reason if they shouldn’t. This year the Mooney Summit will be on September 27 and 28. If you would like to register go to www.mooneysummit.com Ruth and I have sold our house on Lake Harris and moved to an over 55 community. Our new address is 1023 Nantucket Sound, Mt. Dora, 32757. Our phone numbers and email are unchanged. The new owners of our house did not want the trains, so they went to a friend who is building a garden RR in North Carolina. Hope to see you soon, Dave and Ruth N46DT 352-408-3343
  20. looks like allegiant "comfort class"
  21. Someone I know once did that, but was strongly cautioned that during discovery if things go pear shaped, this might just seal the deal for the plantifs, as it will be found out as most misrepresentations are.
  22. Congrats! I owned an F for around 15 years..great plane! you will love it!
  23. A word that should be known by all aviators, especially cfi's. don't fly off without it. This isn't your father's car insurance company
  24. McMaster Carr has UHMW tape in various widths and lengths. Great for those chafing areas on flaps, gear doors, cowl, etc
  25. Well done Byron. Starter adapter or armature bearing, Brandt?
