  1. Hypothetical, suppose you settled on the highway under a canopy - would the outcome be worse? I suppose flying over cars to land makes you more visible...just speculating.
  2. I can attest that, with ANR headset, you won't hear a thing. With a passive headset, you can hear just fine.
  3. 10 kts would be dangerous. is that much loss accurate? I don't recall noticing an apparent performance loss the couple times the door came open. Would be great if someone could do an experiment....
  4. Missing bolts? Sounds to me you are confusing things - are you sure it wasn't Boieng you took it to?
  5. Is it just auto throttle, or does it include "fadec" as well? Will the $15k be installed?
  6. Now you are forcing me to google what engine is in my car ....
  7. Curious why you consider switching, aren't those Austros perfect for Europe?
  8. No, no trouble with temps. The high power setting recommend for break-in accelerates the airplane to speeds that are unsafe in the environment. One option is to go away from the airport - not a great one. Another is to increase drag.
  9. Lots of trainers around you doing 80 knots, and ATC likely would prefer you stay below 2000 ft, so slower is better.
  10. After major surgery, you want to stay nearby for the first hour
  11. I formulated poorly - yes, the intention is to run at high power and stay within recommended temp range.
  12. In last engine break-in, this fire-breathing dragon was reaching 180 KIAS to keep the CHTs up. We have another break-in coming up, this time in busy controlled airspace. Was wondering: any issues against leaving the landing gear and speed brakes extended to keep the speed in the 130-140 KIAS range?
  13. Is the fleet doomed in the short term because of no parts availability? Or are vendors filling orders directly from owners?
  14. I believe the issue is that the manufacturer needs get involved since the unit is part of TC. I recall DA40 owners were frustrated because Diamond wouldn't or couldn't. If that's the case, the question would be: will Mooney certify an upgrade path?
