Hi Richard - That is one pretty bird. One thing that I see which I want 100% is the digital engine monitoring system. I've been hearing how monitoring the cylinders really gives an extra factor of comfort when flying. I had a conversation today with Mike Jesch. Are you familiar with him? He then connected me with Mike Rodgers via email. Mike Jesch actually flies a Cessna 180 but does do check outs in the Mooney. I believe, near you. He menioned the Johnson Bar, which my instructor also mentioned to me on my flight this morning. He got his complex rating in a Mooney. Do you see a HUGE advantage to having that other than cost of maintenance? In all honesty I wasn't really considering that in the slightest and like the idea of the electric gear, as I'm sure other pilots do as well. What's your take? Stefan
