  1. that's the answer of a man married a long time.
  2. smooth as glass to DRO and back today other than a couple pesky clouds.
  3. my xwind ability really went to pot after leaving ND.
  4. yellow one's been for sale with a spare engine for at least a couple years. Looks nice too.
  5. CDOT sends out free maps with preferred routes, just get one of those, it'll go a long way to helping you pick a route. https://www.codot.gov/programs/aeronautics/request-form though not of much use now that tablets have taken over, the airport directories are neat to have too and cost three dollars https://www.codot.gov/programs/aeronautics they have great photos of the airports usually. Alamosa is absolutely terrible for mtn wave basically all the time it seems Oh, and a side note: don't try and fly i70 thinking it's the low ground. There's a big tunnel that about every year or so someone manages to crash near.
  6. It's ifr conditions too. Thunderstorms, icing. It mostly sucks.
  7. that storm started in CO and moved east. it's an ugly one.
  8. I love the "I did it one time so it's fine" argument from the na guys.
  9. This was my experience selling our old k. The k market is pretty flat.
  10. Need, no. Want? Yes. Sure you can climb and 300fpm and squeeze through valleys or you can climb at 1k or better and sail over the top. Choice is yours. Depends on what you want. Have you flown a turbo?
  11. I have a lot of hours in the p28 series. They're built just like every other airplane. Aluminum and rivets.
  12. He's asking a Mooney forum if he should buy an arrow or a j/k I think we know what the resounding suggestion is going to be.
  13. No? I thought it was the rare all wood arrow
  14. This wing is 100 percent wood. There are many airplanes and they all fit a mission. Nothing special about mooneys.
  15. Than buy what fits your budget. The n/a arrow will be cheaper to maintain I'm sure. The people saying the Mooney is a better built aircraft... I don't see how you can quantify that. I don't know what you expect a Mooney forum to point out that could be off your radar. You have already mentioned 2 models and suggesting a bravo probably accomplishes nothing.
  16. Airplane is an airplane. Buy what fits your mission and performance wants.
  17. Larks.larks8 for apa Powdr.powdr8 for bjc Those are the correct ones to use despite the way they're published. The arrival gates are powdr and larks on the sw, ramms tomsn nw, landr sayge ne and dandd quail on the se. You'll be under the faster traffic so they shouldn't mind a slowdown.
  18. I think on second thought the art ruins it. Better just give it to me so you don't have to worry about it anymore.
  19. Haha make it permanent and larger when you paint it
  20. I carry a similar product and they work very well
  21. Good point. If you're like me you don't want to worry about bathroom breaks and you dehydrate yourself. Exacerbated by the altitude.
  22. We had one of those out in our last plane. Labor was only 6k
  23. In which way are they different?
