  1. I switched from firelight to Garmin many moons ago. The new pilot web application is in my opinion very good. I would say there is just 1 feature that pilot has and foreflight doesn't, if you split the screen you can have an approach on the map and a different approach on the other screen. I thought that was awesome while doing my training and also keep current or IPC. Tho foreflight may have it, again I haven't use it in forever
  2. it's potentially less than that. Braly never answered the question "are those STCs or tailed numbers that purchased the fuel?"
  3. https://sccgov.iqm2.com/Citizens/FileOp ... nline=True https://sccgov-org.zoom.us/j/88064280493 don't miss out on it
  4. https://www.pilotsofamerica.com/community/threads/another-reason-not-to-run-g100ul….151426/
  5. CEH lost completely. The final order is available online.
  6. new disclaimer added when you buy the STC. even if nothing is wrong with your aircraft and 100LL you still need to replace components.....still drop in LOL
  7. I had an engine stopped working on me (while flying) in my M20K, I spent thousands of dollars and eliminate the problem after the damage the water caused. In my case the Monroe tanks sump valve was not at the lowest point of the tank thus I couldn't not sump the fuel/water and eventually found its way through the fuel system, which I ultimately had to rebuild including gascolator, fuel selector, electrical pump, flow divider, mech pump and all the bits in between. Since then no water in the tanks. Basically, make sure the sump valve is posited at the lower point, mine wasn't .
  8. Sales are dismal last time I pulled data from the county. So yeah low single digit using the fuel
  9. reach out to savvy. great service and very easy to work with
  10. I bought a j35 few years back, didn't fly much with previous owner (lost medical .. the usual deal), always hangared. compression were low flew it as much as I could, next annual compressions were much better.
  11. mmm that is an interesting idea, I am going to try to 3D some attach the magnet and maybe put some teflon tape on the edge to create a seal. the blue tape is a pain in the butt
  12. I have been dealing with this for a long time, posted in some other thread. I always put 8 inch blue tape on my fuel caps and the vent ports.
  13. I have never in 10 years of flying and 2 aircrafts one was a 1958 J35 had worried about 100LL staining or chewing through parts. When I got my J35 it had a huge blue stain cos the bladder was leaking, we replaced the bladder and wiped off the stain. 1-2 weeks with G100 and both thanks are leaking and the paint is stripped to the metal....and I am not the only one.
  14. is the mechanic going to break in the engine or are you?
  15. I always join the 45, we had a very big and deadly accident in KWVI a 150 vs a twin Cessna, the twin came in straight in on final and hit the 150.
  16. I have gone to 26 OAT and I just need about 1/2 open of the heather and I am toasty
  17. I run 31 MP, 2500, 125 ROP TIT and my temps are usually 350 or slightly below. 900 on the bottom 100 on the top
  18. savvy offers help with pre-buy. more money short term but perhaps less money long term.
  19. is it true? like the gauge will go below 18 and stay there?
  20. what's the delta in fuel you see? meaning how many gallons are you putting vs how many gallons can the tank take? I never had a problem with air, I did have problems with the fuel caps. If fuel is coming out, also water could get in Do you have aux tanks? Do you see the delta in fuel in the Aux?
  21. I had a 1958 Vtail j35 85K haul IFR 200 hrs in those days - $3600
  22. hey I actually did not. I cleaned the yoke columns and the problem went away. In regard to Executive, unfortunately I had to cancel twice because of IFR weather, while IFR rated and proficient I wasn't going to get myself in it with a questionable autopilot behavior. On my 3rd reschedule they stopped responding. I don't fault them but that was my experience. I am sure they are fine.
