@Matt Warddo you have a number for him? I see Mountain Aviation but no Mountain Air

Hi, I know of Arapahoe Aero in KAPA but they are booked 3 weeks out. The seller is time constrained as they are the midst of purchasing another airplane and would not want to wait 3 weeks. Can you recommend another shop? Thank you, Yariv

Thank you Carusoam:-). At this point I do not have the logbooks for inspection yet, and no access to the POH.

So time while the master switch is on is also recorded by the tach? Even if the airplane is connected to external power? Maybe someone was practicing on the G1000 while on the ground. thank you both for the responses.

Hi, i am looking at an Acclaim that has a large gap in time between the tach time displayed on the G1000 and Hobbs meter at the back. The Hobbs shows around 930 hours while the tach time is at 1400. How can this happen? Is this a serious concern? Also, the airbag seatbelt expired. Would this affect the airworthiness? thank you, yariv

Yes, I am in touch with Jimmy. He has a 2000 Ovation with AST TKS Fiki. I understand it is one of the older TKS brands. How does it compare to today’s CAV system?

Just sold my 1998 Ovation today. The main reason was to upgrade it to a newer model of Ovation with Fiki. I will consider Acclaim as well depending on price and G1000 WAAS upgrade status among other factors. Thanks.

My 1998 Ovation was sold today. Starting airplane shopping.

Hi Matt, I am selling my 1998 Ovation (I put the ad for it on MooneySpace.com yesterday). It has AC but no Fiki. My plan is to upgrade and get a Fiki Ovation or Acclaim. Yariv 425-922-0855
