Does anyone know of a shop or person near Florida to install the Mooney 201 windshield mod on my 1975 M20E???

Can anyone suggest a shop to install the Laser 201 windshield mod on my Mooney 20E June 2021

Jesse, when did you do the 201 conversion?

Any recommendations as where to go for the 201 mod? Someone who has done several of these and not a 1st timer.

Not using much oil and engine is running good with 75/80 on all cylinders BUT I know its coming. Question is where is best place to get the cylinders overhauled? What is the most cost effective to zero time the engine? For sure I am replacing the Cam, any suggestions on the best cam? This is my first engine overhaul and look for guidance.

I am looking forward to following your job to completion.

Great Job, thanks for all of the photos. I will be doing my 75E model next year after panel upgrade. Your documentation makes others work much easier.

Does anyone know of where I can get a panel template or a company that has a template for my Mooney. Notice in the picture on the right side the circuit breakers and tach our curved out. Maybe that is just cosmetic and I can put a flat panel in there. I would like to hear from anyone who has knowledge of the 75 E model panel I am doing an upgrade of all instruments, switches, circuit breakers and avionics. Thanks, Jim

I own a 1975 M20E and am looking for a GOOD shop to put a new panel and glare shield in my bird.

This is a re-post from an email I received. I would sign up but am in Florida and he needs Mooney people from the west coast. This is going to be great for us Mooney owners that want a low cost ($7,000 plus installation) autopilot. Mooney owners, The STC Group LLC has received FAA STC approval for the "Trio Pro Pilot" autopilot for Cessna 172, Cessna 175, and Cessna 182 aircraft. We are beginning a serious effort to add additional types to the STC. The STC Group, LLC is looking for a few Mooney owners who would like to collaborate with us out here in sunny Ventura County at Oxnard and Camarillo airports. Please contact us if you are interested. Hope to see you at Oshkosh next week. For more information please visit: www.thestcgroup.net Be Quick, Be Quiet, And Be On Time Paul C. Odum Paul C.

I bought my 1975 E model 3 years ago. I normally fly GPS (Foreflight) point A to B. The plane has all the Laser Mods including the wing tips. The VOR works ok, but I really only use it to fly the ILS. Finally after 3 years I was at the Avionics shop talking some upgrades and the guy point out that I don't have an VOR antenna on the tail. The original plate has been replaced and there are no antenna holes. I scratched my head and said that seems strange because everything works. After some research I discovered that Chief Aircraft sells a "Wing Tip" antenna for the Mooney. Before I start taking my plane apart does anyone the Laser wing tip mod and does it include a new VOR antenna? Thanks, Jim

What brand alternator to buy? 2 years and 4 months ago, I replaced the alternator and regulator in my 1975 E model with a solid state regulator and a "Plane Power" alternator. Notice I said 2 years and 4 months. That is 4 months out of warranty and the noise (ac ripple) coming out of that thing is something terrible. Called Plane Power and they suggested a capacitor on the output. That didn't work. The whining noise in my headset made me shut down the electric bus after touchdown yesterday. Now the fact that I have to buy another alternator is just accepted. However, my question is what brand. I am not sure that I want to put another "Plane Power" alternator back on the bird. Any suggestions? Thanks, Jim

Who is Joey Cole? Does he specialize in fuel tank leaks on Mooneys?

Maybe someone can help me with my stall warning problem. On takeoff (using V-R of 75 MPH) it buzzes until I am over 90 mile an hour. Not constant but on and off. It is clearly out of adjustment. I have looked it over and it does not seem bent incorrectly or anything. It also moves nicely. On landing, it goes off but I don't pay too much attention as by then I am over the runway and waiting for speed to bled off for touchdown.
