  1. Thanks! yep we are here to support the fleet, anything you need just call. if you have service questions ask for Mike or Kenny. If / when you get to the point, give us a call we would love to quote a paint job for you. we have painted several mooneys. Chris
  2. Hi Alan! thanks for the kind words....... also, for the question on the AD. No it still applies.

  4. Not sure whats up with Garmin Pilot, the airport is currently licenced as 2000 x 50. however there is a 1100 foot extension that is not marked yet or licenced. there are wires on the approach end of this extension about 8 ft above and 50 ft before the end of the extension. there are balls on them however this is the reason the threshold is not moved yet. there are 2 houses down by the river that these power lines go to. when we built our hanger over here we ran the power under the runway from Walmart. the next step is to tie those two houses into our power and then the wires will come down and the threshold will be moved all the way to the end giving a full 3100 useable. taxiway to our hanger and our ramp is compacted gravel and plans are to pave it soon. the rest of the airport is grass taxiways. if customers are not comfortable with the gravel taxiway we currently have (dont blame you) you can park on the grass by the runway and we will fetch you with the tug. the extension is usable for landing on 19 as an overrun, take off on 1 full length is approved, and landing on 1 "should be made on the threshold", just watch the wires if you touch down short. I got my license here in 98 and its a great airport to fly into. very scenic with the hills all around. we have several restaurants within walking distance. as for the fuel caps, yes we are aware of the company that took over the shaw caps and they definitely made it known they are not interested in manufacturing them and or selling them. i should have been more clear, yes you can get the cap apart to replace the oring, but its not a normally serviced procedure. you cant leave the cap in the same state it was before you took it apart.
  5. The Silver Eagle is a great airplane. at O&N I built over 50 of them. we maintain a few dozen of them now and have the STC to build them if someone was interested in a new one. As to some of your questions, we do not have a line on new orings for your original shaw aero caps. At one point we ordered the orings from shaw (which cant be done anymore) and learned that the caps are not serviceable. you can not disassemble them to get the new oring in. the cap needed to be sent back to them to replace it. we have recently switched to a newton style cap and this is an upgrade you can make. it is a lockable cap with key. the shaw aero caps went up to a crazy price of $2000.00 a piece!!! They must want to be out of the fuel cap business. So yes, we offer an upgrade kit to replace your existing cap with these locking caps. The cost for this conversion is $190.00 a side. Ill see what I can do when the install comes in a few days as far as taking pictures of the install process and getting some of them up on here. thanks! Chris
  6. haha, now that's funny........ you know prices never go down in aviation! we have an install coming in a week and another after that. yes, we offer the the entire bladder system as well as 10 gallon ad on as something you can have installed anywhere you choose. For current pricing give Ruthie a call. I'm pretty sure not much has changed since the last O&N prices......... Chris
  7. After what seemed like forever, we at Griggs Aircraft, as of today are a PAH with FAA-PMA on your Mooney Bladders under the STC's that we all purchased from O&N. I'm not sure how familiar you are with our company but I assure you we are not just some start up company that bought these STC's when they became available. Myself and Matt Griggs are the owners of the company, I worked at O&N for 14 years and Matt 20. when O&N closed we took on 6 of their employees, 2 of which are the machinists and fabricators that not only made and installed your bladder kits, they also designed them. Kenny, one of our fabricators was O&N's first employee in 1987. So, your future bladder kits will be built by and / or installed by the same people who built them for all those years at O&N. We really look forward to your business and are very sorry for the gap in service between O&N closing and us getting our FAA approval. It was a long road, and took a lot more work than we realized but we are proud to have arrived! If anyone chooses to have the bladders installed here, please come and check out our brand new 10,000 sq ft facility at Skyhaven Airport 76N located in Northeast PA. We are in the process of getting the offices, phone system, and internet moved into our new hanger so if you call for questions or orders, leave a message on the machine if Ruthie doesn't get to it and we will get right back to you. Thanks a bunch and look forward to hearing from you! Chris Murley Griggs Aircraft 570-836-5757
