Just inflate when you get there.

@carusoam You just need a marketing department... if I may...: I need to start practicing.... uh honey... I’m going to build our next plane... it’s going to be turbine powered... ... Hi honey, I just thought I'd bring you these lovely flowers...your favorite!....yeah they sure are, but not nearly as beautiful as YOU!............ So, I've been thinking..... for our next plane, I think that it is time that we fly smarter. I think we should go with a platform that will let us use less expensive, more modern avionics and other technologies. At the same time it looks like there are options that will also give me more freedom to work on it myself with out always having to pay shop rate! In fact one of the options is to use an engine that we don't have to overhaul nearly as often and it is much more safe and reliable!

@FloridaManI'm voting COM cable to antenna.

Had an unintended *single* speed brake deploy once... more of a big yaw, but that would be visually obvious.

One of the other labels says "CIA" so....

I vote a left index finger. ... by the lack of callouses on the sides, I'd say the owner does some IT related work. Appears to be touching some kind of shielded wire. Seriously, maybe 20com-1a= M20 Communication Cable type 1A?

Looks like I caught an earthquake on approach

I know what you mean Have a friend who lives at 8500' ... try to go up the stairs and it you definately feel the rarified air.

I think that definately qualifies as showing some love to your Mooney!

Heading to the airport now...

Hi MS. Happy Saturday morning for those of you in the US and afternoon/etc for those abroad. I just took a look at the sat precipitation map and it looks like this: I'm thinking we get out there and show our Mooneys some love... Pictures or it never happened.

I don't know about that... I think you keep it pithy within any single row of text!

Ditto, PIC in 2007 having my test done and some IFR dual training prior. . Instructor was 30K hr retired airline captain. That had a lot of advantages (and some gotchas) but definitely treat it as a license to learn. Also your experience will be highly a function of who you end up with as an instructor. Definitely do it (if you can) in YOUR aircraft.

PT6 Hot Section Inspection and TBO intervals: https://www.pt6a.aero/maintenance/pt6a-tbo-hsi-service-intervals/ Flat rate overhaul seem to run about $300-400K ish +/- Hot Section seems to be $15-150K ish...depending Of course you have higher fuel cost but fewer flight hours incurred given the same trips...

It would take a coordinated dev effort on Craigs side to put it up but it is do-able! The *simplest implementation*: Craig (or his developer) would simply need to make a web widget or field on the borders of the MS page that you could paste an airport code into and click "GO" and have it open up a new tab with https://www.airnav.com/airport/<PastedAirportID> to take you to:https://www.airnav.com/airport/KCPT <--- a lot of NICE information there! To open in a new browser tab you use the Target = blank tag per this: https://www.thesitewizard.com/html-tutorial/open-links-in-new-window-or-tab.shtml

Praying for a positive outcome!!

Same same, it is a 1:40 to STL from my house, so sub 500, the Mooney wins...except mid fall through early spring when the stinking ice machine fires up.

Hi Mooneyspace, Just wanted to wish those of you in the US who are celebrating Thanksgiving a happy week, hopefully with family, and safe travels - watch the icing out there if you are i the air!

The data files are spreadsheet type stuff so your iPad might need a .CSV reader app or something that knows where the download lands. It is just column/row "square" dataset that is essentially 55,593 rows of this: It should be the complete dataset an integrated lookup function would need. Integration could be via widget on the page, or a link to a decoder page, or (more effort) a text processor for postings that turns strings that match an item in column "A" above into hyperlinks like: "Hey there is going to be a Moony mooseburger fly-in on December 24th at 00AK ...come if you can. Be there or be square." But instead of taking you where that link does, maybe you just get a small tool tip on on-mouseover or on-click that gives a little popup that shows this: Again, just thinking that would go on the list of cool things that MS has that other forums don't. The forum software can either be an enabler or gotcha depending on support and what happens during upgrades.

Thanks Chris, yes, I think everyone knows you can open up a search page and look it up via another tab or whatever; just thought it may be an interesting hassle-free feature to add to the UI for MS. I think that there is some hassle factor on doing lookups (even in the URL field) was the rational for the ask @RLCarter is referencing above. That said, just an idea.

Great job; congrats!!!!

@EricJ Understood, but if they voluntarily put the ICAO in their personal detail or in thread as in we went to Kxxx to get together then flew to Kyyy it may help to be able to do a mouse over, or use a widget to decode those identifiers for those not familiar with the airport.

I vote "Type A" if you are "The one who dies with the most toys wins!" oriented and "Type B" if your are a quality of life person....
