Have an Acclaim in pre-buy and some jug work is maybe in the cards. Got an IRAN price for just cylinders, remove, inspect, repair as needed and remount $17,000. Has anyone recently done a TOP with either new or O/H jugs? What kind of pricing. thx Scott
-
Has anyone installed this unit or a competitor in the recent past? How do they work? Cost installed? Time frame?
-
great idea on the additional outlet.
-
Great link to icybreeze. much more economical, will check out the reviews. thx
-
Good info Eric, appreciate it
-
I appreciate your feedback. Good idea on the remote. I flew an 08 acclaim with a/c at ~85° and was not super impressed with the performance. So you don't use crushed ice if you can help it?

Have an 08 Acclaim in pre-buy. No A/C or TKS. Live in SW FL so summer is tough. Evaluating the portable Yeti cooler a/c unit. Reviews online seem great. Anyone in the group own one? Thoughts on how best to operate? thx Scott
-
yes thx, I miss spoke. Off of the data card which when I looked was not there unfortunately. Once I get the plane I can gather the data. Appreciate your info
-
Hey thx for the offer. Plane is hitting the shop Wed, I will see if they can get the data off the g1000. Can you plug in settings like 29.5mp/2400rpm/15.6gph and get a % of power calculation? Seems like there is lots of opinions on how to arrive at a % power number. Thx!

Grate info here Dan, I will definitely play with the slide bars. Quite an efficient plane.
-
Thx Dan, it does not have TKS. So to make sure I follow, you reduce the TAS that FF shows for actual time in route? So I my case FF says, 211TAS, 5% (10.5kts) so round down to 200TAS. Flight time was 180 minutes so adding 5% gets me to 189 minutes. Appreciate your input.
-
Built a profile in FF for an 07 with a/c. At 13000 FF says 211tas using the pre-built performance profile of: 30.5/2500/lean seems high by 10kts. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

No worries guys, I guess when the guy offering to go look at the plane tells me he is riding the bus, my BS meter goes up. Also, just came from the PA-46 world and we helped each other out all the time. Was in the Mooney family for many years, owned a J, R and Bravo. Times seem to have changed.

What's with you people? Must be the new generation of pilots.

Fortunately they are not even on my radar screen. I guess I will make a donation to their favorite charity

Fellow pilots, so I have narrowed down my search on an Ovation3. Found a seemingly great plane and want to go see it. I am looking for someone who has the time and desire to fly me from Ft Myers FL area to the Raleigh NC area. Will cover fuel, meals etc. I am a 3000+ hr pilot with 1000 in Mooney's. Please contact me if you are interested or know someone. Next week would be ideal. Thx Scott
-
That's great to know. Would enjoy meeting up with others. Text me at 406 839 1299. Appreciate you reaching out. Scott

thx for the update, looking to take a new to me acclaim to the factory. Refreshing to see a firm deliver quality service
-
Have owned a J, Bravo, Ovation3 and buying an Acclaim. Just moved to SWFL, looking forward to meeting other Mooney drivers in FL. Any FL events planned in the near future?
-
Has anyone had an annual done at the factory in the recent past?
