We are only talking gearsets and what IS known is that Mooney has licensed them to LASAR...Mooney NEVER manufactured gear sets, however, Mooney is the agency that inspects/releases the gearsets provided by their 3rd party vendor...Now LASAR has the authority to do so...the rest of the agreement, outside of the gearsets, is a whole other topic.

That's kinda what they did when they sold the license rights to LASAR

So, my understanding is that the gear manufacturer is giving the following lead times... 12-18 months, they are trying to find a manufacturer that can do it sooner than that..HOWEVER, I would have already put in the min order (25 sets) to get the ball rolling because we may find ourselves 12-18 months down the road and be 12-18 months behind.

You could be emailing LASAR about it yourself...John@lasar.com

So, I think if everyone starts emailing/calling the MSC of your choice, or contact John Smoker at Lasar, maybe they will get moving on this, 60 (squeaky wheel) owners are better than the one.. John's email is John@lasar.com. I've sent off an email to Don asking if he's had a conversation with john regarding the gears, waiting to hear back.

So, got an email from LASAR, working on another route for the gears, no word back on 2nd bid or basic timeline, there are/were 60 individuals, not including any of the MSCs that are wanting gears..it's been very frustraiting indeed...

Thanks

I saw on the news that showed a picture of downtown Kerryville

Did Mooney survive the flooding in Kerryville

Hollow inside, no issues with wires.

Finished up the training awhile back, getting ready to fly there at the end of the month and wanted to talk to someone that's been in there...think I'll just call the flightschool that's there and talk to a CFI

Not required to be, all that's needed is a 337, I've got one of the Cygnet, in my aircraft....

65E just wondering how high the air-scoop raises above flus, mine only raises about 1/2"...I'm assuming it should be a bit more to get any air circulating through the overhead ducting.. I've got the schematic out of the parts manual so I'm thinking with the difficulty of opening and closing it that it is binding somewhere and I'm going to have to take down the overhead to check it out..anyone with similar experience, if so, what did you end up doing?
