  1. Hey everyone. Finally found someone to make the round center emblem. My yokes are still ugly but the center caps are now perfect!!!!! I took a micrometer and sent off the measurements to the creators website. He sent me back two perfect center emblems. https://www.3dstickandrudder.com/shop/q1dvgocd66hwldg7ncz2q8dp173o7f I bought them from 3dstickandrudder. Finding these round emblems has been a multi-year task. I hope this helps someone else out there.
  2. When mine shuddered it was from a sticky valve. Opened up the cover and found a broken spring. Jason ’75F
  3. Wow!! That looks great! My ugly yokes could use some love. Do you still have these laying around? I could use two! Thank you, Jason '75F
  4. My 17 year old son painted me a picture for Father’s Day. Nice job kiddo!!! I guess he’s not always playing on his phone.
  5. I agree. Edison does a great job. Had my tanks done last year. Sooooo nice to not smell fuel. I also recommend the restaurant next to Banyon. Yum! Jason
  6. My town was hit pretty hard last week by a tornado. After volunteering all weekend my body needed a break. Took a flight around town to survey the mess. Fortunately, for my family, we didn’t have any damage. It’s amazing to see the results of such powerful weather systems. The outpouring of support has been incredible. People arrived from all over to cut down trees, feed us, donate supplies and just help any way they could. Restores my faith in humanity. Living in a small town I got a few “hey, was that you in the Mooney? Cool!!”
  7. Just watch out for stop signs!!! Almost hit one in a Cub. Who puts a stop sign on an old dirt road in the middle of nowhere. Lol. Landed on a dry lakebed instead. Lake was not dry after that. Ahhhhhh much better...
  8. Wife has the link and a big hint hint, buy one for me Mrs. Claus. She just got a new kitchen. I at least deserve a fancy power outlet. lol. (-:
  9. Used Bad Elf GPS Pro Plus for sale. Glonass/Bluetooth. Additional suction mount included. Scratches on the face. Unit works perfect. Bought it 2 years ago, new, to add location to the iPad I use in the Airbus. Works great in a Mooney and the Airbus 319/320. Not so well in an Airbus 321. $300 when new. This can all be yours for the low low price of $100. I’ll even throw in a fancy Crown Royal bag to carry it all in.
  10. Call me paranoid but I covered the whole plane. Dropped the flaps and put a towel in the groove to prevent any drips rolling off.
  11. It’s a much smaller size grit. I really just wanted to freshen up the color. Chose this product on a whim. It was sitting next to the flat black on the shelf. Lol.
  12. Reviving an old thread... I was bored so I grabbed some supplies and drove to the hangar Couple hours later I have a nice wing walk.
  13. Two months ago I finally had my fuel tanks sealed. It’s such a pleasure to open the hangar door and see a clean wing, clean floor and no more stains. Edison, at Wet Wingologists, had an opening I was able to slip into. He was extremely helpful and patient while we tried to align our schedules and deal with this Covid craziness. Two thumbs up from me. The food joint next to Banyan Aviation was still open for takeout. The breakfast alone was worth dropping all that cash! No more leaks! No more smell! No more stains!! Woohoo!!
  14. Just wanted to share my insurance numbers. Insured with Global thru Falcon 2018 Liability $175+60k hull $624=$799 2019 Liability $175+60k hull $734=$909 2020 Liability $184+60k hull $1094=$1278 17000 hrs, ATP, CFII, Seaplane and lots of tail dragger time, 15000+ in retracts, 300 in type, 70 in the last year, multiple heavy jet type ratings, no accidents or claims and I’m still considered young at 47. Hangar as well.
