‘70 F My son just had total comm failure on IFR flight plan. When he keyed mic, it occasionally triggered ELT. Transmission and reception became intermittent. Eventually lost com on both radios. Ideas? Thanks !

My son just started flying patients to chemo to build hours. Anyone have any suggestions on step stools or other assistive devices to help people get on and off wing? Thanks marty

Planning to take the Caffeinated Sloth ‘70 M20F to Airventure on Tuesday. Anyone have thoughts on general aircraft parking vs vintage aircraft parking? 1970 just squeaks in. Thanks

Actually son stuck on cross-country at M44 in Houston, MS. Sheriff will give him ride back to airport in AM and can get part number. Thanks for help! marty

Cross country from Louisiana to NC. Didn't secure gas cap on 1970 M20F. Safe landing minus left cap. Any ideas where to start looking for replacement? marty

Anyone know the moment arm of the main gear on f model. Would like to verify the calculations on aircraft weighing. Thanks for your help! marty

Proud new owner of M20F. Running weight and balance problems while waiting for post-prebuy annual, can't get my CG to work Empty CG is shown as 49.94 on most recent (2004) W&B. Previous W&B (no interim mod) showed 46.17. No major mods to airplane. Could 49.94 be right, or should I just have A/C reweighed? Thanks! marty
