THanks for responding. Those don't fit my plane.

I Saw that. The part number is the same but the picture is different.

I need to two doublers part number 680031-029 if anyone has spares.

I have a complete Brittain system in my '65 E model, with altitude hold and pitch control. For 4 years I have tried to keep it working, buying parts Others were selling, rebuilding servos, sending parts to Kevin in Tulsa, and doing extensive testing myself. You probably know there are very few people who will work on them, and even fewer who are FAA certified. The company is essentially out of business. Jimmy Garrison says that it would add $2000 to the value of your airplane, assuming it worked. It probably won't. It would definitely cost more than that to install, troubleshoot, and attempt to repair. I am getting ready to take mine out and install an aerocruze 100 aka trutrak. Cost is about $7,000 for a good autopilot, admittedly not as good as Garmin. If you are so inclined, you can install it yourself under supervision. If it were me, I would not waste money on a Brittain system.

try to imagine your life without the plane. If you like what that looks like, sell. If you still want to fly, get another plane. Let this one be someone else's project.

I have an extra left side yoke with PTT similar to Hank's (except it's for the pilot's side with the clock hole) if you need one.

I have removed and repaired the one on my 65E. I agree with lubricatiing it if possible at both ends, but it is difficult to replace the wire. It is one of those things that, if it ain't broke, don't fix it.

Part number? I have one recently removed in working condition from a 65 M20E I could find if you are interested.

My E model had 64 gal bladders when I bought it, which I thought was a plus. I didn't pay extra for them, but have enjoyed not having to worry about leaking tanks. The J model I now partner in has a leaky right tank so we are dealing with that issue again. Not much fun..... I think Jimmy is right, they are worth more than a plane without them.

Another option (which we just used to keep our plane flying while we get ready to install dual GI 275s) is to buy one of the many serviceable DGs available on the used market which other owners have removed to upgrade. This would keep your plane IFR capable, reduce downtime, reduce expense, and give you and your partners time to make future decisions.

I have three of them. One fully functional and two with amperes gauge inop. P.m. If interested

I prefer an on/off toggle switch so I used this one https://www.aircraftspruce.com/catalog/elpages/togglevalve11-12168.php

Not sure about his availability, but Steve Parkins at Corona is my mechanic and very good. He knows Mooneys as he owns one and works on others. PM me if you would like his number.

Steve Parkins at AJO has worked on numerous Mooneys, including mine, recently. He is a perfectionist. PM me if you want his number.

I installed Plane Power alternator and regulator in my 65E (under supervision of A&P/IA of course) and it works very well. Their customer service was fantastic as well. Joe
