    My heart failure was genetics - with 20% EF when it happened. I'm nowhere near the level those folks are (health wise) but I was doing 5 to 10 mile speed walks a day before the failure started to creep up on me. I can sympathize.. No blockage, pressure great, took them 3 days before the cardiac mri showed the EF ratio. Those folks look like the perfect picture of health too... -Don

    Hicks Texas (T67) has an F for rent (Zulu Aviation), just West of KAFW (Alliance) and North West of KFTW (Ft. Worth Meacham). I’ve been renting it. Nicely equipped (GNS 430W) -Don

    That is a hold in leu of procedure turn - it is a mandatory if you have nothing saying NoPT. ATC will expect you to fly the hold in leu with either a tear drop, parallel, or direct entry depending on heading... Edit: looking at the plate, their is a sector that says NoPT - basically a direct entry -Don

    Muffer done! Dawley did the OH for me since the flame tubes were getting to a point where I would need to do that -- so I asked David to just get it done... -Don

    I’ll be in the South Hanger also! Denton has been hard to get into. A 9000 ft runway though at KGYI will be nice on theses hot days ;o) I know a M20B is hangered there and one is tied down too... -Don

    David is back an has started getting her back together! Mag is there, waiting on the custom harness. While waiting, David has the oil cooler relocation bracket/setup ready: http://accelerationtech.com/photos/mooney/2652w/updates/IMG_4793.jpg http://accelerationtech.com/photos/mooney/2652w/updates/IMG_4794.jpg Will post as more gets accomplished... -Don

    This is nice! Just a few questions: did you install the shoulder harness first then install the trim? if so, do you have pics of how you ‘notched’ the trim (left and right side) to get it over the shoulder harness? -Don

    That’s funny, I asked their support those exact questions ;o) Waiting to hear back... -Don

    I’m considering this: https://www.aircraftspruce.com/catalog/avpages/voicegearalert.php approved for Mooneys... -Don

    My guess is they would need to be OPP where you requested them made to the OEM spec and the proper paperwork returned to you as documentation (which I believe the paperwork is there). Those are a great price and there has been lots of discussion about them on the forum. -Don

    SureFly and harness are on the way to David! Hope to hear in the next couple of weeks she’s purring again... Still doing some IFR training in 3535X for a bit... getting more excited ;o) -Don

    That is one of my thoughts — oil cooler a partially blocked cooler can raise temps and lower pressure. You could also check temp drop across the inlet and outlet to see if the cooler is doing its job, using the ir tool. I’d check when it was last flow checked/cleaned/OH. next could be wide tolerances for the pressure drop, oil pump weak. The higher temp should really not drop the psi too much if it’s a good oil and quantity is right. -Don

    Thanks! I take it you’re Kevin? She is still in great shape. With what David is doing, I’m sure she will continue that. With all the speed mods (most that you can’t get anymore), I’m happy. it does need paint and an updated IFR GPS/COM but I can live with that for a bit. IFR GPS/COM will come sooner than later. i can’t wait to fly her. -Don
