  1. Over St. Ignace, MI with the Mackinac Bridge and Mackinac Island in the frame on a beautiful flying day.
  2. Are there separate power runs to each recog light _from the switch_ on the switched side (makes the install easier) or is it a single run to some other location from which both are fed (harder). Inquisitive minds would appreciate knowing.... Thanks
  3. I'll add another nit for fun... since the JPI is an 800 it is not primary, and the Moritz cluster is primary - so it technically cannot be "ignored." However... ... on my JPI 900 there is no such redline on the EGT (like there is for CHT) - and those folks are absolutely manic about duplicating all appropriate gauge markings on their primary instrument replacements. But then, maybe the digits turn red when the limit is reached (if it even could be) like they turn blue for temps in the blue arc.
  4. Interesting fact: foundry workers get very good at visually estimating the temp of the melt from its color temperature. Old timers can pretty regularly do this to +/-50 degrees.
  5. Sure! I call it the ultimate six-pack. BTW - The ADI fails over to the Other ADI in the picture, not the HSI. It's a bit retro, but yet modern. It can do pretty-much anything that the rectangular glass can do, and is a lot more configurable in some respects (the 2 275's that aren't in the stack function as MFD's)...
  6. I have 4 275's in the panel, but installed a 900 rather than a 275 eis. I love the arrangement, especially b/c I can see everything on one screen without scrolling (why I went this route, in fact).
  7. Put mine in today - they look and work great - and no melted spot!
  8. A great and very complete answer - thank you. Makes sense.
  9. Don’t forget low altitude - you really do need 75% - not just WOT - so typ at or below 5k’
  10. Forgive me for getting sidetracked a bit, but this conversation begs a stupid question I’ve always had — why don’t all high performance single engine aircraft have a full feathering prop - multis do to reduce drag on an engine out, so why not singles?
  11. Pictures updated to reflect current available list
  12. Yes it is, but I no longer have all of the probes - if it's listed above, it's still available.
  13. I keep updating the list on the first posting on top -
  14. Just saw your post - they are available if you still want them. Thx -
  15. Make an Offer - I’m happy to see them get a good home -
  16. Still stuff left make offer! --> Direct message me if interested. Thanks! - Bob
  17. I agree - it has been a great addition to the plane. Landings become much more consistent and night landings especially so. Helps at new fields and particularly those with a significant slant or confusing sight picture (think Sedona).
  18. The PPP is an incredible program. Period. I try to do it every year. There is always something to learn, no matter how seasoned and current you are. The instructors have been fantastic, and what's not to love about talking flying and Mooney for a weekend! > flying with an instructor who has significant Mooney experience is priceless Amen to that.
  19. Nope, you're not. 6'0", 61, 167. The difference in UL I make up in fuel. I read yesterday that the average waist size for men in the US is 40"
  20. Sunrise over Lake Erie
  21. If you find where this can be ordered, would you please post it - I would love to add this - thanks and Happy New Year!
  22. This is very interesting thread - but I don’t quite understand - is the extra capacity contingent on having some type of vent installed in the normal O filler neck, or is it simply an AFM change? Thanks. – Bob.
  23. Disney World did this in the 80's. Hey, I enjoyed the shooting gallery!
  24. It is that! For Oil and general gunk on airframes - I've never seen anything beat Powerfoam. I use it for oil, belly soot, TKS runs, etc. Never fails. Then follow it with Wash n' Wax Blue. Bingo. \
