Hi folks, Flying a 2007 M20TN G1000. Was out flying yesterday and all of a sudden my AHRS reset/rebooted in flight. During the time it was offline, I lost traffic data during this time, too. Would be offline for maybe 1-2 minutes then it came back and everything was fine. Would fly for 3-4 more minutes and then happen all over again. Noticed in the LRU system page that it was the GDL 90 that had a red x on during the time it was failing, though for a brief few seconds I saw the GMU1 and GRS1 have red X's as well. Pulled the SDCARDs out and they confirm the loss of data during the period when the AHRS reset and lost traffic data. Attached photos of it when I had it plugged in the hangar (GPS probably wouldn't work), so that should be expected. Easily reproducible. Curious if anyone has seen similar before? I've browsed on the Internet and have heard of posts about maybe the magnetometer needs to be re-calibrated.

Hi folks, I purchased a Mooney M20TN and (finally) got it ferried up to Seattle (Auburn/S50). Was curious if anyone knew any mechanics in the area who are skilled with Mooney aircraft that folks can recommend? Thanks

Wow - thanks for all the helpful replies. I updated my profile to reflect I'm based out of the Seattle area. Will look into Delta & All American - thanks for the tips there.

Hi folks, I've only got a few hours in a Mooney in the past ~8 or so years but I've always been a fan of them. I finally have saved up enough money to consider purchasing an aircraft and was looking towards a modern-ish Mooney - specifically aiming for a used aircraft with TKS and G1000 or G600 avionics. Based upon some research on here and other locations, a pre-purchase inspection is a big part of the buying process. I've seen lots of posts talking up the value of having the Mooney Service Centers doing some of that work but I had a question: Is it possible to have them travel out to the seller and and perform that inspection? Also, are there any companies one can use where you can provide some of your requirements and then help in the search of an aircraft and do the follow up pre-inspection? Thanks and apologies if this has been answered elsewhere or if this is a bad question.
