    Will these new monitors improve fuel quantity accuracy ?? I have a 68 G. Fuel flow is nice but my gages are pretty sloppy .

    Good morning fellow Mooney drivers. I’ve been shopping for tires and the cb is coming out in me. Are there any discount dealers out there ?? Spruce and other places I see online are all about the same. thanks

    Any updates to putting in an engine monitor as these post are 15 years old. I’m looking to put one in a 68 M20 G.

    A sad one. Thoughts and prayers to the family. About the worst situation we as pilots can have thrown at us .

    Had the bubble gum belly beacon and strobes on my m20f. Replaced with belly strobe recently. 1968 model

    Lost a M20F last Thursday at Beverly MA. Power loss shortly after takeoff. Pilot died at crash passenger survived a few days later I have a personal connection with this one. Not much info yet. Looks like a metal power pole got them as they tried to crash land.

    I have Garmin 696 in my M20 G. It came with the plane in 2013. I love it. Unfortunately the joystick is broken and Garmin no longer supports it like most of our modern @$&… companies. I have found Palmdr on the web. They seem very knowledgeable and nice. Anyone used them or know of other shops ??? I’m a CB so I’ve got to see if I can fix it. It’s a great unit. Too bad no factory support . Fly safely and stay hydrated in this hot wx. TR

    What do you mean by normalized?? Also I see some installs with altimeter over on the right I think it is more important than the engine monitor. All have a great day.

    We are all speculating but something brought this bird out of the sky. It was falling not flying. Got my physics book out.-11000ft/min I read. . I suspect fire or explosion from medical equipment. We will probably never know for sure. I have some time in a Lear 45xr. Great airplane.

    Thanks Hank. Mine are hydraulic on my 68 with the 125mph POH speed.

    Here is my big question. I just help resurrect a 67 M20 F. It gives 105 mph as flap speed in one document and 125 mph in another. I have a 68 G and poh says 125 mph. Did something change structurally between 67 and 68??? Look to hear fro the experts

    Remember it is loading dependent. The cg will determine the exact trim required. We don’t have a chart like large aircraft so we have use the TLAR method. I’d rather be a little nose down than a lot nose up. Only takes a seconds to adjust on rotation.
  19. hoot777
    Just flew an F. One place it says 105mph in another 125 like my G. What’s the story? I heard it changed between 67 and 68. Was it a mod or just a pub correction ??
  20. hoot777
    Pilot mall sells the POH. Not the best manual compared to newer aircraft. I bought one to have at home.

    Anyone ever used Wilkerson Tires ????

    I have little red buttons on my ptt which is attached to a plate screwed to the yoke. The buttons pop off and then you are left with a pin you push. It works but not the most comfortable. Anyone know a source for the buttons. I ordered several recently but they don’t fit. Thanks

    Cole has great reputation. I have used Preciscion in Manning and Freddie is excellent. I currently use Koening at KCDN. Small shop but one of the best mechanics I have ever known. I’m and old guy with quite a few rodeos under my belt. Saluda has a nice small shop as well as KCUB.

    Just ordered a few little caps to pop back on my PTT - which is almost a needle w/o the little button from RS services

    A totalizer will not indicate a fuel leak. Unlikely but it can happen
