C-GPGS

My original all-in-one 6 gang engine cluster (M20C) has 2 of the 6 guages not working. Is there a shop that can either repair it or a shop that can bench test a used unit that I can buy for replacement.

Over the years I have had about 14 hours either in left or right seat of Mooneys. Even though I haven't flown much in the last 10 years, I have about 700 total hours, which is not much but it has been 700 hours of great variety. IFR rating; mountain endorsement; night endorsement and have landed in over 125 different airports. So now it's time to get back at it and do some fun x-country flying in my own plane this time. Maybe next year Oshkosh with the Mooniacs

We love to share our sailing experiences. We met so many sailors out there who were pilots also. Adventure and freedom runs in our blood it seems. RE: Trim: I was surprised to find that a local aircraft maintenance shop had the right boards and was familiar with Mooneys and so we had them do the trim adjustments. I actually take ownership of GPGS today as the owner has finished getting all the things he said he would do. So, exciting day! Jordan

Thank you Cliffy, that is very good description and info that we will use. If you like following sailors, we did a blog during our circumnav: www.turtlemail.blogspot.com Jordan tr3jordy@gmail.com

Hi Iain Right now GPGS is at Vic Air Maint. But I have got a tie down arranged on the north side of the field. Hey, if you are willing, I wouldn't mind meeting you at your bird and checking it out. I'm new to Mooneys and so many questions. In particular right now is answering a question about the full range of trim travel. It seems that I don't get a full range in one direction at least according to the indicator needle. I would like to see another mooney with a full trim in that direction and looking at the angle of the elevator and tail and if willing, look behind the tail panels. Do you have elec. trim? Johnston bar? Jordan tr3jordy@gmail.com

Just buying my Mooney C-GPGS, a M20C in Victoria. It is in getting inspected and annual. Great shop that is doing a thorough job. Should have her by the first week of Aug. I have just got back into flying after about 10 years off. (We took our sailboat and circumnavigated the globe for about 10 years and just finished that adventure) This is the first plane I have owned so I'm right into the big learning curb of ownership/maintenance etc. Exciting. Anyways, I have learned quite a bit from this forum and really appreciate all the participation. Jordan
