  1. I'm a new owner to a M20C and when taxiing on the ground fairly slow, when i let off the rudder pedals, it very much steers to the left. I have to hold right rudder to keep it straight. On take off roll, I really have to hold right rudder a lot to keep it straight right from the get go and it gets worse as I get up to rotate speed. Is it just the steering rod needs adjusted or is this a sign of something more? Thanks.
  2. Does anyone have any 3" rudder pedal extensions, maybe even with the rudder pedals made special for the extensions so the pedals are at the correct angle vertically?
  3. Gary, do you have a intake air duct with no holes or tears? part number 600064? would go on my 1961 M20C.
  4. Thank you so much to everybody for helping and providing input on this. I'm a shorter pilot, 5'6" and my wife is 5'5" (110 lbs). i've heard that there isn't room in the cabin, but so far I found that i have to pull the seat all the way to the front stop and i need an extra pillow or cushion on the seat for me to see over the panel. I may have new seats made that have more cushion and sit higher. My two little girls weigh 40 lbs each. with full fuel, my family, luggage, I still have over 200 lbs before max weight. I'm sure I'm the exact opposite situation compared to others. I'm excited to be part of the Mooney group. I just bought it, it's in annual, and i haven't flown it yet. my first flight will be with an instructor for complex checkout. This plane has had a ton of mods put on it, so i'm excited to get going in it. I'm sure I'll be back here asking for advice.
  5. I'm a new Mooney owner and have bought a 1961 M20C with original interior. looking at upgrading. Does anyone know if I can swap in seats that have headrests? What about getting seatbelts with shoulder straps put in. Also, who is best company to redo the interior panels and headliner, etc? I'm on a budget, so best value. I've looked at Airtex and Jaegers in Wisnonsin. Thanks.
