  1. Thanks everyone, very helpful. I am scheduled with Mark at Top Gun for October.
  2. Getting ready for the first annual. I want to stick to a specialized Mooney shop. Lasar, Top Gun and Foothill are coming to mind. Please let me know if you have any recommendations for me based on your experience. Thanks.
  3. Thanks for all the replies. Getting both mains with tubes changed.
  4. Noob here. The search reveled varying opinions so I thought it maybe beneficial to post pics of my particular situation. I noticed this spot and am wondering if I need to get the port main replaced ASAP? Also, do I need to replace starboard at the same time (even if it doesn’t have the same wear)? Thanks.
  5. I had this problem. The KFC 150 would sometime pass the test on ground and sometimes fail. The yoke switch would work, intermittently. The A/P would not trim. Took the bird to Executive Autopilots at KSAC. Dave found two issues, one was a bad solder on the switch post. He re-tested and could could hear the clutch engage and hear the motor drive but it wouldn't move the controls. On bench testing the servo he found the clutch wasn't fully engaging, he cleaned and re-aligned the engage assembly and voila! problem solved. Highly recommend Executive Autopilots, class acts from start to finish
  6. Ha! Oddly enough, that is true. I didn't even realize the use of the phrase until you pointed it out. I am a fan of (theoretical) nautical adventures but flying is my real love!
  7. Plane is at the shop, it happened while I was on my way to the shop will update when I get the butchers bill!
  8. The joys of aircraft ownership. It was a pretty gusty morning at KSMO. I thought I had closed the door while i was doing my pre-flight, but apparently not. A gust of wind blew the door open. The door is slightly off now, I have to pull it down so it lines up. I was on my way to an A&P for a few squawks so added that to the list. There is a slight bend which he hope the sheet metal guy can take care off. Oh well....... I was going to add a strap to the bottom of the door so it doesn't go all the way to complete stop and put pressure on the hinge- once its repaired, which i hope isn't a major issues
  9. Yes I am, that’s my next step, to modify the ForeFlight checklist. I also want to have a paper backup in the plane. As a brand new and first time owner, I’m learning slowly but surely.
  10. Thanks guys! I am customizing the checklist as we speak.
  11. Wow, I sure am glad to have found this thread. I am having the same problem?m, the Alt Field CB pops when I turn off the switch at shutdown. If there is a delay it doesn’t. I’ll give the A&P the info above, hopefully it fixes it.
  12. Hey guys, ‘wondering if anyone has a checklist for an ovation I can use. I saw the 2007 M20R checklist in the downloads section but thought I’d ask if anyone has another one for a ‘95. thanks.
  13. Yeah, my apologies, the pics were sent by the A&P. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  14. He looked behind the panel in the first bay but could not find any corrosion so thinks it’s surface only. Can’t see any further as it’s riveted on and isn’t wanting to drill through. The panel with corrosion. Bay Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
