Might also treat your chts better if you climb WOT full rpm

what type of cht probes do you have? and what instrument do you have to monitor the engine telemetry?

I don’t believe it’s a requirement. I thought I’d was an SB.

+1 for aero accessories as well. Shipped in, repaired, and I picked it up the following day.

I had good luck with chandler avionics in PHX.

Your best glide speed is 90 KIAS. not KTS. 90 KIAS at 0 ft is 90KTAS. 90KIAS at 18000 is a lot faster than 90KTAS. 118KIAS at 18000ft should land you around 160 KTAS.

Any Mooney should be able to handle a 2700ft strip at sea level. The only one I would have some thought taking it into a strip that size would be the stock eagle and ovation 2 with the 2 blade toothpick props. As long as your final speed is good, you shouldn't use more than 1500ft of runway, especially with the lighter older models. Getting out shouldn't be an issue either if you don't have obstacles. Edit: if the airport is buckeye, I'd do it no questions asked. No obstacles on either side, with fields at the end of the runway makes this a no brainer in my opinion.

You can fly it right back to SAT and have hector at aerocomfort repair and fix up the interior. From what I've heard he does a very good job fixing everything up.

how much was switching out the windshield if you don't mind me asking?

I don't have a one wheel but have used them. That's probably the direction I'd go in. The most expensive one has a pretty good range as well.

Going through the entire hassle of hiring a DER and all, might just be easier to get an MT prop, or the acclaim type S prop might knock off 5 to 10 pounds aswell.

I guess a baron also handles 4 people pretty well.

I'm with @larryb on this one. If you regularly fly 4 people, you want a 6 seat plane. A TAT TN'd A36 will give you the same performance if not better as the bravo with more useful load and range. However you can't get FIKI with the tip tanks on the 36.

what did your CG and empty weight end up at?

flip flops or barefoot.

Don't know about the 252 but the newer mooneys have a static and a pitot drain. One on the left front wing and one in the right under the batteries in the back.

will these fit in the wings of an ovation with the connector sticking out on the side instead of being on the back?

I'd go the debonair route.

I'm looking at either adding a name to my Mooneys registration or just changing the name completely. If I did either of these, would I still be able to use my planes current registration until I got the new permanent one, or would my current registration expire when I apply for the name change on the registration. The main reason I'm asking is because I travel to Canada every now and then and its not possible to enter with a temp registration. My Insurance requires one of the named owners to be insured however they don't fly anymore, hence the reason I'm trying to add my name to it. In the end the goal is to avoid insuring someone that doesn't fly the airplane anymore. Any help is appreciated.

It’s cheap and cheerful.

What about a J3?

its hard to have high time when you have a fast airplane. The old Bo's with the 550s really move.

How long til your pirep is out. I’m debating installing a dual Eis mags on my eagle.

The pireps I saw on electro airs website said the improvements where pretty large for the bendix mag update.

I’d guess water in the fuel. Maybe add a bit of isopropyl alcohol in each tank and see if it goes away.
