  1. buy for the future, get the GI-275 as an ADI, then down the road the GI-275 for the HSI/backup ADIm get rid of all of your vacume system, and if you ever get the GFC-500 you won't be wishing you would have bought the GI-275s..
  2. it varies in length and diameter depending on where it is and what it does..measure it yourself, get extra, DO NOT get the BLACK SCAT
  3. So, when I submitted my request I ALSO asked for my personal information to be removed from the FAA Pilot Registry, and as of today, my name and information does NOT shoe up when entering registration number or pilot name in the Pilot Registry database...PROGRESS
  4. Certainly, I've sent another message to Lasar to see where they are regarding the issue
  5. Yes, you have a few things you can display, TAS is just one of them
  6. It doesn't really matter because there is a function that allows you to display in either mph or kts, on my panel, I shave an airspeed limitations placard that shows both mph/kts...at any given time I can go into my 275 and choose to display whatever I want, if I'm vfr, mph or ifr, kts.. BUT, along with the 275s I still have the original Airspeed Indicator as well...so since I still have the original ASI, it's a mo
  7. You completely missed the point...go around.
  8. Should be NO different than Vehicles...you can't find information about a car's owner by their license plate and you shouldn't be able to find information about an aircraft owner by their registration number....you can't go to a gov't website and type in a person's last name to find out if they are a licensed driver and get their information but you can go to the FAA Database to find out about any pilot...the same reasons and concerns that led to the GP not having access through name or tag searches applies to aircraft owners...the ONLY ones that should have access to that information is the Gov't Agencies, but not John/Jane Q. Public or 3rd party vendors.
  9. Why would you need it to report anything above 500 feet?
  10. Frank Crawford at Mooney is a great resource and very responsive...email him at Mooney.
  11. So, they enter MPH when it's installed, then you go into the 275 and you can choose to display it in MPH or Knots...make sure he gives you the password if he changes it from anything than the default.
  12. Unfortunately the answer is no light...just like there isn't a light to show the gear lock indicator in the floor on the older aircraft. Only one is the light for the fuel selector lever in the floor, if it's NOT corroded up. Don't forget that you can check the Service Manual to get the electrical schematics to see what lighting you have and where.
  13. Thanks, flaps aren't the issue, it's trim
  14. Certainly, awaiting word back from Lasar
  15. Thanks, I was told by a few Mooney people that the takeoff position of the elevator should have the weight 1/2 way below the tail...is this not the case?
  16. Not sure, never flown a Bonanza, but it's comfortable and plenty of room for everything
  17. Hey guys, have a 65E, don't have an issue trimming the aircraft at any speed, but the trim position indicator doesn't go the full up/full down markings... I've found the adjustment, but ended up setting the trim for takeoff and then adjusting the indicator to the takeoff position...so while the indicator doesn't go full up or full down with the trim, atleast it's accurate for takeoff position...is that what others have experienced? V/r Matt
  18. If it is the original cable, there is a SB that's been out for years recommending the replacement of all (3) original cables (throttle, mixture, prop)
  19. Here's the checklist I created for my M20E, I have a laminate machine and it uses 5" x 7"" laminating pouches. Might give you a starting point or some ideas.962556 Current Aircraft Checklist (22 April 2025-5-1).docx.zip
  20. What gets me is that you can't run a person's license plate to get owner info but you can run an individual's Registration Number and get their info.
  21. Easy, you get sworn affidavits from competent IAs and A&Ps to support your claims, if you find willing participants that is. This would fall under Small Claims Court ($5K cap in most places) doubt lawyers would be involved, besides a legal loss would hurt the business...OP might also want to file a complaint with the BBB.
  22. 70 degree on mains and 90 degree on nose works perfectly
  23. have you contacted Frank at Mooney, he's pretty responsive
