201Mooniac

I’m based at RHV and would be happy to show you my M20J. Only caveat is I’m currently in NJ and my plane is currently in annual at Top Gun. If you can wait until about 12/14, let me know and I’ll arrange something. Feel free to send me a DM.

True if it is a packaged module but if they are integrating it, there should still be a test report

Also couldn't find anything in the FCC database under the company or product name

Dan, yes, I upgraded to the GDL 69A SXM because I wanted it to work with my GI 275. I was hoping for a trade-in but after the last round with nothing and Garmin finally confirming they won't support it on the GI 275 I gave in.

I've always been a Mac user (well at least since 1992) and I've used Jepp data in all of my units (GNS and GTN) and never had an issue with Jepp support for Mac. In recent years I used the Jepp app on my iPhone with a Wombat to program the datacards (before getting my FS510) and that worked incredibly well. I wouldn't have any fear of Jepp data sewrvice from a Mac.

Unit is sold

I have about 500 hours now on my 4 servo GFC 500 install and while I'm glad I added the yaw damper it isn't really needed, nice but not needed. As to install cost, $5K for the servo and install seems very high, that is about double what I paid (though that was 4 years ago).

I can do that, best to send me a direct message and I can provide any additional information you might want, extra pictures or anything.

Sorry, I wasn't clear about how I said that, I meant the debris is on the opposite side of the media from where the oil flows into the engine. You are correct about the crud being on the outside of the filter.

The debris the filter catches is on the other side of the media.

If anyone is interested in a Garmin GDL 69A (working perfectly when removed) please feel free to make an offer. This is the unit that does XM weather as well as audio and is compatible with Garmin flight displays (G500/600, G500/600/700TXi, G1000/G900X/G950) displays, the GTN and GNS series (both non-WAAS and WAAS), and the MX20/GMX200. This is not the newer SXM unit though so it is not compatible with the GI 275. Unit only, no rack or antenna.

Yep, I'm not giving up my Fluke anytime soon

Actually if it is reversed, you will get a dutch roll behavior, very easy to notice and quite alarming. You won't notice it until flying and then just remember you can push the YD button to disable the yaw damper if that happens.

Paul, Thanks, when I finally get some time from travel I'll try to contact them again.

I'm sorry I haven't, too much work travel recently. I tried Tradewinds but wasn't at all happy with the work. Savvy recommended Absoute Aero at HWD but I sent them an email while traveling and they never got back to me so it isn't encouraging. If you find someplace you oare happy with, please let me know. Also let me know if you'd like to meet up at RHV.
