Still have it, let me know!

People that have an Aspen and GFC500 will have either a G5 or a GI275 to control the AP. So you can either install a G5/275 that will control the AP and keep the aspen. Or get rid of the Aspen and go for 2x G5 or 275s.

A question related to the OP: How long can you 'store' a new tube? Have had one on the shelf for over 3 years...

Reduced price ($900) OBO. Shop said yellow tag is still valid and in use for overhaul.

Any news on the gears?

I like the iPod on the panel!

Thanks for all the resources and descriptions! (also thanks for the google doc someone posted in another post -- couldn't find it now but have it downloaded) To coordinate a time with my A&P to do this, have an estimate for how long does the whole process of removing and replacing the wire take (already have new steel wire)?

37 hours labor for nose pucks is crazy. Even completely removing and rebuilding NLG won’t even get you close to that.

Al Mooney numbered all his planes, from the M1 up to (don't recall what the last one was). The mooney mite was the M18 for example. I recommend reading his biography, interesting history: The Al Mooney Story: They All Fly Through the Same Air

the taxi down to south 40 was awful. great experience otherwise!

Also, I carry a small runner rug to roll down over the wing-walk. Some doggies don't like stepping on it so the rug helps. Make sure it's red

That's awesome! Flying with PnP is super rewarding, you'll have a blast! Large crates don't fit in my F (I haven't played with removing the back for the rear seat, maybe then I can fit in something larger). So larger dogs have gone uncrated in the back seat. Smaller dogs always crated. Also, if transporting uncrated dogs I strongly encourage to bring someone along to help. If pups are crated then you're ok solo. Happy to chat more if you have any questions! Feel free to DM me!

I'm curious, picture?

Found it: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:7093747 Very helpful! Though the eyeball vent part is for a beech-style old vent. wonder if anyone might update the file for the standard round ones one can get on spurce?

Debating whether to go to OSH this year, would love to go and camp -- get the full experience. Forecasts looking kinda crappy though, so will decide closer to the date. I was thinking of requesting camping at GAC-N (GA Camping, north 40). Wondering if anyone had any suggestions? PS: would love to do caravan but can't make it that day plus need to do their training, so not an option this year.
