  1. Right, they are TSO'd, so they meet a minimum requirement, they however are not PMA'd or STC'd.
  2. Monroy long range tanks
  3. @Sabremech how many interested parties do you have? Are we nearing the 15 you needed for reduced pricing? I am working on talking the financial advisor into them.
  4. It does say Cessna on the face...I'm not sure what you expected.
  5. @Raptor05121 I think these guys ( @Marauder @M20F-1968 ) need your Millennial social media prowess.
  6. This sounds like when we used to have the new guys test the airspeed indicator on the F-16 by blowing on the pitot tube...made for some great photos.
  7. Having flown extensively around the panhandle of Florida for the past 5+ years, I am convinced that the Tallahassee approach controllers hate pilots. I initially thought it was just military pilots, but they were inconsiderate A-Holes while flying my Mooney in there as well. I have used MilllionAir at TLH for Pilots-N-Paws a couple of times and also for Operation Airdrop, post hurricane relief flights. Those times they offered fuel discounts, but they are still not a CB option.
  8. I think there may be a pretty young redhead that may disagree with this assessment.
  9. So running your 12V, 29 ampere you have about 1 hour assuming your Emergency + 50% draw. That should be enough time to safely land under most conditions. Just make one radio call explaining your situation and plan to ATC, since transmitting takes more power than receiving. Looks like you are pretty set in case of an alternator failure.
  10. Steven, welcome to MS. You should consider adding so information to your Avatar, like make, model, location. A quick topic search
  11. I removed the clip and use a 3M Command Strip to attach it to the right side of my panel. Easy to remove if needed.
  12. Yep, one piece rear windows. Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk
  13. Well, how about that. All this time I thought I owned a 1975 M20F, according to the serial number (22-1322) I actually have a 1976. According to the logs is was manufactured and completed its test flights in December 1975. Today is the first time I noticed the "1976" written at the top of page one.
  14. Try this route KHZE KRWL KCNY KPGA KGCN KSMO, It keeps you from crossing the ranges in Utah and since you were in the area, overfly the Grand Canyon. I grew up flying in Montana. I was in and out of West Yellowstone in a C172 as a teenager, beautiful area as other have mentioned.
  15. It was flying a "parallel" holding in-lieu of entry not the 45/180 PT barb. I have never flown behind a GPS that will fly parallel on the non-maneuvering side, they all drive on the outbound course and then make the turn on the maneuvering side. On the Garmin units as you approach the fix it will state what it is doing, ie. teardrop, parallel.
  16. LOL, that is very close to my experience.
  17. While I have never flown a Comanche, I have flown a Seneca II. I not recommend strongly enough how miserable that airplane is to fly. It handles like some one took a 2 ton farm truck and added wings. They just never seemed happy in the air. It is the only plane I have ever flown that I truly hope to never fly again. If you get your multi in 10 hours, I would bet you would have less than 2 hours with both engines pulling equally. You will get a really good leg workout since you will always be simulated single engine.
  18. Well, let's see I am Caucasian, active duty military, and have TSA Pre-Check. This past weekend flying from San Antonio to Atlanta, I was "randomly" selected for additional screening.
  19. Bob, when are you going to start calling your plane a Super-er 21? I think you have moved beyond just super at this point. Looking forward to seeing the upgrades.
  20. @mike_elliott could probably explain it better than I, however one of the driving factors to holding the Summit in PCB stems from one of the Summit founders generosity each year. Ron @rocketmanhappens to own multiple properties in the area and has worked out deals allowing the Summit access to conference rooms and lodging. The FBO is also very supportive as well.
  21. I leave mine in place. You can get these from LASAR and have tie downs and jack points always installed https://lasar.com/product/tie-jack-point-combo/
  22. I believe he was talking about the J-Bar. There is no emergency extension. It either works or it's really broke.

  24. 5 years does not seem that long. How about half a Century?
