1. Finish IFR ( end JAN ) 2. Add GPS to Birdy, maybe G5's 3. fly at-least 125 hours this year. 4. probably not osh but one of the aopa fly-ins 5. stretch goal -- cpl and multi 6. OH YEAH -- been meaning to take her up to her service ceiling, thinking this should be fun.

Best places for a long weekend or extended stay?
McMooney replied to NJMac's topic in General Mooney Talk
KDUA -- Durant Oklahoma -- Choctaw casino Great place, has just about everything you could possibly want in a weekend. casino, movie theater, dining, bowling, bars, shows, great hotel, spa oh yeah, cheap gas. man we should have a fly-in -
Accidently broke my baby, where do I find the clear plastic pieces which go under the nav/strobes and show if they are working from the cockpit? what are they called?

Woot Just finished my first MAJOR upgrade, well Major to me. First time I've taken a screwdriver to my bird.

I understand the benefits of ADSB, I love being able to see traffic BEFORE being informed by ATC. Def get it. Really not comfortable with people at work telling me where and when I've flown. Now that's just people I know.
-
Is there any way I can stop ADSB from tracking me everywhere I go? I currently have an appareo Stratus ESGi If you look on flightAware, you can see everywhere I've flown; it really makes me nervous. Anyone else not comfortable being tracked everywhere you go ?

Oil Change, what are you using
McMooney replied to McMooney's topic in Vintage Mooneys (pre-J models)
Welp, after the oil pressure/temp sender decided to come loose while in flight, I ended up changing my oil for the first time. Can you say oil EVERYWHERE. I wrote my first log entry , 7 quarts of aeroshell 15w50, champion filter, open and replaced cowling, checked for leaks. 8) Can I say nothing about the job was enjoyable? I'm just saying, the guy who designed aircraft engines is NOT my best friend. oh well, guess you have to pay for the fun somehow. -

Welp, since i'm not flying this weekend, figure it's time to learn how to change the Oil. currently the plane uses phillips xc 20w50 but thinking of switching to elite 20w50 with the Lycoming additive. what type of oil are you guys using? also, what is the part number of the oil filter? Oh yeah, my plane 1974 M20E -- N7106v.

AntiCollison lighting ( can i dump the beacon )
McMooney posted a topic in Avionics/Panel Discussion
The power supply for my beacon up and quit and instead of replacing it i'm wondering if it would be legal to just delete. my plane along with nav lights has strobes at all 3 points. from what I've read, isn't that sufficient? -
wow just wow

the pictures don't give the proper sense of scale. To get around all the water, I had to drive ten miles west of the airport.
