  1. Is there an stc for these? Where can they be sourced? thx
  2. What is going to be the added weight of the bladder installation?
  3. Hi all, I stumbled on this old thread and thought I'd supplement with a video of me taking off from a 650m (2100feet) runway at MTOW, 3 POB. the 50feet clearance is pretty good too. YouTube video
  4. engine mount issue, wouldn't that be replicable on the ground during power up checks relatively easily?
  5. Thank you for your reply. Was that also in the approach / landing phases with issu when you added power back?
  6. I would say it starts at 1800rpm. within the yellow arc but doesn't stop going above.
  7. Hello to you all, I have been having issues with my M20J the past few weeks whilst coming in to land. Following eventless flights, after setting the plane for landing on reduced power, I have a vibration appearing when adding power. It happened twice on the circuit pattern, and once on the runway after landing, adding power to taxi back. I don't have a modern engine monitor, just the basic stuff and all seemed in the green. I have not been able to replicate the issue on the ground from starting up the engine. It seems to happen after a flight out and back, engine hot somehow. I recently got a G5+GFC500 setup installed during the annual. The issue appeared after that and not sure if there is a coincidence. Prior to take off, all engine check are fine. Any pointers? Thanks for your help. F.
  8. The one I got is not, but an electric version exist. Mind you, it is twice the price
  9. I just got my range extending new device and I confirm it fits through the baggage door un changed!
  10. here you are: https://www.deltahawk.com/
  11. Hi folks, Just to let you know that I have successfully located the regulator and adjusted the vacuum down. It's a contortionist exercise to reach and it's with finger tips! I suspect that in a proper adjustment, many of the wiring could be disconnected to give a better access, and most definitely required during the filter change. Thanks for your help. F.
  12. Thank you, I will try again tomorrow.
  13. I have to say I couldn't find the regulator behind all the wires etc. does it have to be opened up somehow to be reached? thnks for your help Fred.
  14. Hi Eric, the SMM describes just this: What is the "Bending tab" in your picture and which screw is to be turned? Thanks for your help.
  15. Thank you for your replies. I wonder if the high vacuum could be also because I got a G5 to replace the HSI? Less equipment to share the vacuum with? The Artificial Horizon being alone to take the full vacuum?
  16. Hi to all, Are there any illustrated doc or video or discussion thread explaining how to adjust the vacuum suction? I believe through the regulator? mine is indicating too high on the warning messages. it's a 1989 M20J model. your input will be greatly appreciated. thx.
  17. This is what mine looks like. (supplied by James by the way).
  18. Does anyone know which K-Factor switches need setting with the Hoskins FT101 when installed with the Red cube transducer? thanks for your help.
  19. ahah, well spotted!
  20. Each time you cross borders or cross waters (e.g. France mainland to Corsica), a flight plan is needed (VFR). I flew from south of France to Ireland last summer, with stopover in the UK. A friend of mine, flew from UK to Morocco. The same length journey in the US would be a bore. Here, you do have to work out 4 countries, 2 continents paperwork. But very much all worth it!
  21. Hi there, I am about to go for a G5 HSI upgrade to the KCS55A setup. If anyone interested in purchasing the setup, let me know. it would come out of a 1989 J model setup on the KFC150 AP. all the best. F.
  22. How about this memory store on the fuel flow totalizer?
  23. Thank you, that’s clear.
  24. On my 89 J model, the pressure transducer is rare piece unfortunately. It’s a different part number.
