I'd go ahead and give them a call

I have the official drawings for the Mooney 3" Pedal Extensions but wanted to check to see if anyone on here has a set that they either never installed or removed before I go through having a set made. TIA V/r Matt

Just have to call Lasar back and ask how many more individuals they need before running a batch, they initially said they need 50, figure with the MSCs and individuals wanting/needing them that they would have 50 by now.

Chances are, when you torque it down it's going to protrude past the nut and apply even more pressure against the window. Really the only alternative would be to rotate the collar to get a little more space between the nut and window and grind down the end of the nut so it doesn't protrude past the bolt..

I just bought this for the pilot side..wrapped in leather, costs less and looks great, to me anyways.. https://www.cygnet-aero.com/faq

Call https://www.aerofluidproducts.com/ they bought out Dukes in 2018, they may be able to provide some insight

I didn't think those were available for certified aircraft

Certainly, if you message me your email address I can email you some other files to include checklist, GFC-500, checklist and malfunctions, etc

Check to see what your mag timing is, when I bought mine the mag timing was still set to 25 degrees even though Lycoming put out a SB to reduce the timing to 20 degrees, once the timing was changed that not only lowered my CHTs but also improved engine starting. V/r Matt

Well, while descending out of altitude today the altimeter started acting up, it wouldn't indicate a descent, then it would drop 500-800 feet, would indicate a normal descent then stick, then drop then work just fine...can anyone recommend a good repair shop....static ports are clear.. Tia

Contact Don Maxwell with the photos.

Did you call them.

I sent the discount pricing info for first 50, but undestand your skepticism. I asked John if they were going to purge their website of items they haven't had for years nor could they get and didn't really get an answer, and then you listen to their plea to have us join the assurance program that is vauge to say the least...not sure who their marketing person is, but they need a better one when it comes to the assurance program.

Did you see my seperate post regarding the worm gears?

You can always demodify it and go back to original

Thanks

Contact Don Maxwell

Does anyone know who this plane belongs to or who painted it, really like the red and looking for the paint code. TIA Matt

You may very well be correct. My goal going into this was to try to find an option for those affected/concerned and now their is one. Mr. Smoker was nice enough to contact me about this before contacting the MSCs since "we" have been the ones pushing the issue and therefore giving those of us, that would like to take advantage of this oppertunity, the ability to do so. Mr. Smoker is giving those interested a week headstart to get on the list. I have no doubt, when Mr. Smoker reaches out to the MSC, that they will make up the remaining numbers required in order for a run of those gears...the good news, there will be gears available, the bad news, they will tack-on their % profit margin on top of LASAR's full price and that's what those needing gears will HAVE to pay. So, my work is done, wether individuals take advantage now or wait till later is of no consequence to me, I'm sure you paid more for your peace of mind than the amount of Mr. Smoker's offer, only difference, you don't have to wait 17 weeks but now everyone else has an option.

You are arriving about a year late for the dance..

Looking for the right angle nutplates that are used to retain the avionics panel covers between the windshield and cowling, as I have two that are stripped out. I've looked in the parts manual and it lists the screws that are used in the nut plates but don't list the nut plates themselves..does anyone know what they are? My only alternative is to drill them all out to the same diameter and then tap them to the next larger size, would prefer to do that as a last resort. They look similar to the picture below but the nuts are rectangular as apposed to cylindrical: TIA

Yet the FAA REFUSES to mandate parts of the AIM..

All this discussion about a light that's ONLY required if you are operating for hire..individuals telling others what they SHOULD be doing and when they SHOULD be using it.... is it a good idea to keep it on unless it interferes with ground personnel/aircraft..I certainly think so..the AIM makes suggestions for its use but the AIM ISN'T REGULATORY...

we don't even know if he did a fuel sample from each tank yet, that could explain things..I'm just glad they they are ok and the aircraft is ok..
