    Sounds like it might be easier to chrome or strip and polish the existing spinner.

    Mine has the stubby nose. Would like to make it look a little more modern and streamlined. Thought that there might be a 201 mod for the spinner.

    Looks like a great airplane! Let us know how it goes! Assume that the price was VERY ATTRACTIVE!

    Thanks. Will check with Laser. Mine is a short stubby spinner. I am looking for one like in the pic above.

    Does anyone know where I can get a polished or chrome prop spinner for my 1968 M20C?

    Gorgeous paint job! Nothing like new paint to cause you to fall in love with your airplane again! Did you do the interior as well?

    Congrats on the gorgeous Mooney rebuild John! We met you during the airshow on Friday and had a chance to see that beauty! I have my M20C at Westover Air Reserve Base in Chicopee, MA and the guy who I was with is based in Mansfield, MA. We are almost neighbors.....look forward to seeing you at other Mooney events in the Northeast! Love your beautiful F!

    How about removing the rear bench seat in a 1968 M20C? I am told that it is very difficult. Anyone have experience doing it?

    Nice equipment Marauder!

    Just focus on the inner ring and you will get comfortable with it over time. I think of all of my relevant speeds in terms of knots in order to be consistent with the rest of the aviation community; if ATC gives you a speed they will do so in knots. Just be consistent and not jump back and fourth. BTW, the thing that I really miss on my M20C airspeed indicator is the TAS window (even if in MPH) since it is a quick way to monitor TAS. Unfortunately, mine doesn't have one so I have to use an app on my phone.

    I did it in my 172 years ago and it was pretty disappointing. You can't hear the "booms", which are a big part ot the thrill of watching fireworks, and they look pretty small from the air so you just end up circling for an hour watching small, silent bursts. The one time when it was really cool, however, was flying crosscountry on the 4th and seeing the fireworks as we passed over cities and towns enroute.

    Thanks everyone for the advice. Did not exceed red line but CHT was up to red line for a few minutes. I think that a trip to my mechanic may be in order. Also looking at installation of a JPI EDM 800. Mark

    Departed NYC metro area at gross weight last week. OAT was about 90 and hit red-line cylinder head temp in climb to 8,500 for about 10 min. Wondering what type of engine issues may arise.
