  1. Thanks for the welcome! I believe the testimonials on this thread from Mooney owners speak for themselves. Greater fuel economy, more power, smoother operation, and easier starts. Climb rates are significantly improved. Add to that, 2000 hours of operation between replacement and the cost justification is there. How much is a traditional magneto overhaul costing every 500 hours? If you don't fly much, I can see the reluctance to spend money on newer technology, but much of this stuff has been around for years now. I guess it depends on your definition of "new technology".
  2. Nobody's got an answer for that nightmare yet. Since they have standard mags covered, I gotta believe that dual mag system must be a bit tougher nut to crack.
  3. Only for normally aspirated engines. If there's an "I" or a "T" that begins your engine call out, not yet. Most Mooney's I'm familiar with have injected engines. The FAA is also requiring CHT monitoring equipment. Read the FAA document on their website. It's all there.
  4. Those are all for experimental aircraft and do not have an FAA STC. As far as I know Electroair is the only one approved for factory built aircraft. So, yes, really. I thought maybe somebody else got FAA approval that I didn't know about.
  5. Gsengle, who else has an STC for an electronic ignition system?
