Pinecone

I fly an ILS or VOR approach almost every practice session. Would hate to be IMC and have a GPS outage or jamming incident and not have the equipment or proficiency/\.

Right about the time it went into effect, my FBO was able to order one from their normal parts supplier at around that price.

Especially if you often fly with other pilots in the right seat.

If you REALLY want to stick them on for a long time, use 3M 5200. You can get it from HD, Amazon or any boating supply store. Like RTV, you have to secure them in place for 24 or so hours, but once on, the only way off is to pull a thin wire through the joint to cut the adhesive.

If you have a 430 also, it changes the advice. With the 430 I would put in the 165.

If so, I would do the MAPA event also. Bullet dodged. Managed to change a cruise that conflicted to another one that fits.

Find some of the old MMO quart cans. The place I saw it helping was in engines there were designed for lower than 80/87 octane running on 100LL.

What I did was join CAP and get checked out as a CAP pilot. Free flying and free MIL version of FF. And, in my CAP squadron, met some really great people.

Still this way.

The second one had no direct matches, but several similar looking clips for car and RV (campers not planes ) interiors.

Google Lens to the rescue. The first picture: The items pictured are a Click 200mm Mounting Cable Tie and a CB4020 Right-Angle Swivel Cable-Tie Mount. These are used for cable management and securing wires. Material: Made from commercial-grade, UV-resistant nylon 66. Features: The cable tie has a marker tab for labeling. The mount allows for securing cables at right angles. Sizes: Cable ties come in various lengths, with 200mm being a common size. Applications: Suitable for organizing cables in offices, homes, workshops, and for outdoor use.

What are you thinking of putting back there?????

They may be in touch to set up advertising.

Premeasure two 16 ounce bottles of MMO. Add one to one side, fill tank. Go to other side, repeat. No waiting.

Thanks. I hope you mean 15 - 19.

Anyone hear anything about a possible MooneyMax event for 2025?????

The other problem is, in many cases there are lots of customers with good experiences with the same shop. Unless, like some, the shop is rotten to the core.

Back in the days when 80/87 was going away. A number of people believed that a bit of MMO in the fuel reduced the incidence of sticking valves from the excess lead. TCP worked quite well but you had be careful handling it as it was very toxic. And FYI, MMO contains a bit of TCP.

To be clear, I am FIRMLY in the camp that you should be comfortable and able to hand fly the entire flight. I had maybe 15 minutes of time using an autopilot until I got my Mooney. And I still hand fly 90% of my practice approaches.

No, you don't know what you will do. But by thinking about it, planning your response and briefing it you are loading the response to be what you would like it to be. Similar to bold face in the military. React with a specified set of steps without thinking about it.

THEY'RE BACK. In Misc section

I wonder how may different keys there are for Mooneys? I know that for my CAP-10 the shop did not have the keys, so grabbed a random set off the bench and it fit. I remember that back in the 70s, Ford had a whopping 10 different keys.

My shop does this. How many hours do you estimate to just do the checklist, without any additional things to fix?

Or had damage that would lead to one blade coming off. Also, as I understand, most of the cost of repair of a gear up is the prop replacement and engine teardown. Going around doesn't save that cost.

What kind of failures have you had? I do almost all my practice approaches hand flown. But do a coupled approach ever so often to remember how it goes. I also fly a hand flown, with flight director every so often also.
