Thanks Guys

Anybody know the best place to park at KCPS for small aircraft? No overnight, just a day visit.

I'm wondering who bought this airplane from "Conrad" back in Sept of '24. Is it the same guy that sold it to Fred? It sure sounded like it had a lot of issues back then when he was trying to unload it.

This '96 MSE that has been on controller.com has an Aspen, one GI275 next to it, and the GFC500 autopilot. How were they able to do that? I also have an interest in this. https://www.controller.com/listing/for-sale/245297647/1996-mooney-m20j-mse-piston-single-aircraft

I have J model that had a 3 blade Mac on it. It always had a lot of vibration despite being balanced by the previous owner. It started leaking a lot of grease and was going to need an overhaul. I had Stallings put on a 2 blade hartzell top prop and sold the 3 blade. It was expensive but it is smooth as silk and I gained 6-8 knots in cruise depending on altitude. Also had an A plus experience with Stallings.

Just began on my last flight. Cranking was normal. It dipped just below 12 on the taxi out and taxi in. There is a whine that I just recently noticed in the headset, so could be the alternator going. Thanks for the ideas

'84 j model with 12 volt system. Began discharging at low rpm only. Still putting out above 14 volts at higher rpm. Belt is tight and in good shape. Connections are tight. Any opinions?

Thanks guys

I'm pretty sure dual G-5's will not drive a KAP-150 autopilot. What about Dual gi-275's (AI and HSI)? When used with a GNS430w and GNC-355 navs, will they drive a KAP autopilot?

Thanks guys

Does anyone have experience/opinions with Skycom Avionics in Waukesha, WI.?

I've been using JB Aviation at Galt field (10C) just Northwest of Chicago. Very Happy.

Thanks for all the info. Very helpful

Has anyone done an overhaul recently on a J and care to elaborate on the total cost? R&R cost? Shop used? Other equipment changed during the process?

What do you guys think I could get for a 10 year old Aspen 1500 system, (PFD 1000, EFD 500, and EA100 Autopilot adaptor) in good working order?
