  1. Thank you all for sharing. We will be over the puget sound. Western Washington. Waiting for the weather to be nice. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  2. Are there any tips using the m20 aircraft to perform this service safely?
  3. Anyone out there use a flight simulator to help get proficient with instrument flight. I have passed my written and getting time in my E model. I am wanting to get more practice in so I can take may test in January. I am about 10 hrs. into training in my plane. I have about 420 hrs total time. I would like to use my laptop. it has 3gigs usable ram and 1.8 gig processor. I have a garmin 530 gps installed
  4. My plan is to just live with it until I replace or rebuild the engine. 50 psi is still 50psi. we are doing oil analysis and we check the filter for metal.
  5. As an automotive engine rebuilder. I would suggest if you have a higher time engine, not to overlook the possibility of excessive wear of the connecting rod bearings. They take a beating on every power stroke. A few extra thousands of an inch let’s a lot oil squeeze out. The oil pump cannot overcome the extra flow and therefore will not develop the pressure. I own a M20E with a 360A1A. It has 1900 hours and my oil pressure is 50psi at hot idle and low 60s at 2600rpm. We installed an ESI MVP50. When the pressure is under 60psi the yellow warning light flashes. Annoying! I added washers to the pressure relief valve. It didn’t make any difference.
  6. In my airplane flight manual, what does the "C.G. % MAC." do for my computation?
  7. This will be my first time to kosh. I am riding with a friend in his Dakota. I am looking forward to a gathering of money's. Hope to meet some of you there.
  8. How do any other short body money's look with this configuration?
  9. Wow. Thank you all for excellent input. To try and answer some questions. The numbers we have on our current W/B are from a physical W/B that was performed last September after all the work was performed. It was with full fuel and 8 quarts of oil. When calculating for center of gravity I agree that the nose wheel should have a small negative factor. .1 is not a negative factor. I think there is an error there and I wonder if he leveled the plane now. The range of 36.5-44.0 is for pilot seat adjustment I think. the limitations for cg are 42"-49" aft of datum line. Ref from airplane flight manual.
  10. I need to go back to the shop and ask some questions. I wasn't there for the actual w/b. I should have gotten on this sooner.
  11. These are the numbers from my original AFM.. The numbers 67.0 and 67.1 are a mystery to me. Do they make sense? It seems to me that they should be switched
