  1. The link is in the article under AMOC but here you go: https://download.aopa.org/advocacy/2025/250716_Global_AMOC_AD_2023-09-09_Continental.pdf
  2. Yes, but at least they got feedback and are adjusting to help keep the fleet flying.
  3. As the heading says, depending on engine, the clamp time limit is being extended to 1400 or 2000 hours. The new deadline is April 15, 2026. https://www.aopa.org/news-and-media/all-news/2025/july/17/faa-grants-limited-turbocharger-clamp-ad-extension?utm_source=ebrief&utm_medium=email
  4. This has been sold. Thanks folks.
  5. That is unfortunate. Looks like the 653337 is superseded by 670105, the 653332 isn't.
  6. I also went with SoundEx, bought it directly from them. I feel like I hear a difference between these new ones compared to the factory installed fiberglass version. I replaced everything inside the cabin. And agree with @LANCECASPER, there is clearly a difference in temperature compared to the previous one. SoundEx ships with all the necessary certificates.
  7. I bought extras not knowing which one will show up when, but I now have an extra at the shop if anyone wants to buy one. This is the 670105 Rev A (riveted). This one pictured is from Textron, the other one is from AirPowerInc where the 8130 doesn't have my tail number in it. $950 ($854 + taxes and free shipping).
  8. I recommend it if you already have your IFR rating. Or wait to get it and then go get it. The basics are easily picked up by practice and reading the manual. The training class is mostly around using the GTNs for IFR with a compatible PFD and GFC. They go through various IFR scenarios. GTN is a powerful system. There’s online version as well for those who don’t want to do the in-person class. The in-person training asks you to complete the online course prior to class.
  9. Looks great! Enjoy it
  10. You can remove the address on the airmen information page through this site: https://www.faa.gov/pilots/lic_cert/change/releasability See the "If you address appears in the database and you would like to remove it, or does not and you would like to add it, you can change the releasability status online" portion of the page.
  11. During a recent avionics upgrade, I received two Garmin GI 275 units that were factory overhauled by Garmin as part of an exchange. To speed up my installation timeline, I purchased brand-new units instead, so these are now available for sale. What does “newly overhauled” mean? These units were sent to Garmin, fully inspected, tested, and brought to like-new condition per FAA-approved procedures. They come with the same functional performance as new units and are typically issued with a fresh warranty when installed by a Garmin dealer (check with your shop for details). Units for Sale: GI 275 ADAHRS (no autopilot) – $3,900 (Retail: $4,595) GI 275 ADAHRS + Autopilot Support – $4,900 (Retail: $5,595) See attached pictures, ask questions. If the title of the post doesn't say sold, it's still available. Local pick up option available to save shipping costs. We can meet at my Garmin avionics shop if interested to test prior to purchase. Thanks, Shawn
  12. That's an amazing effort from Eagle to be transparent. Also has data that most of public don't have easy access to.
  13. My adapter had failed, one of the springs inside broke. While it was being serviced, figured it was a good time to get the starter taken care of too. It hadn’t been serviced since install.
  14. Though I think they may have the wrong part number listed in the 8130. They inspected, repaired and sent mine back.
