Thanks guys. I have now found that if I am on the map, I can double tap on the airport. Then when the airport info comes up, I can tap on "common". Then the choices come up which include AFD. I appreciate the responses.

The only thing I know is that when I update my data, one of the options they list is AFD.

I tried following your procedure. I type in my airport, and hit select, but I don't find a tab for AFD. Any idea what I'm doing wrong.

Can someone who uses FlyQ's EFB tell me how to open the Airport Facilities Directory? I know it is in there, but for the life of me, I cannot figure out how to get into it. When I update the data, I have the button pushed that says the AFD should be updated as well.

My K model is from 1982 and it has never had a reseal. I had one small spot on the top (in the wing walk; very easily repaired), but no leaks otherwise. Mine may start leaking tomorrow, but sometimes they last a LONG time. If I was buying a K model that was not still under warranty from a reseal, I would probably figure in about 1/2 the price of a reseal discount, on the assumption that it is about 50% likely to need one sometime soon. Probably most sellers have theirs priced on this basis already.

No, but I have tools I got in 1955

I still do. Tells you something about me.

How do you put it on an remove it.

I used some translucent plastic sheet for that purpose.

If you use clear (scotch) tape, it gives the same view as being in a cloud.

That is why I asked. I didn't figure anyone (at least anyone with good sense) would just push the throttle to the firewall and leave it.

Does full power mean full throttle movement? Does the MP ever go above 42 inches?

231s have a bad reputation for not making it to TBO. I am not sure whether they will or won't, but I do firmly believe that most of them will do far better than the reputation. Mine had about 4 cylinder replacements before I got it, and on bad advice, one after I got it. This was before I figured out what was going on. All of them were "for low compression". If you follow Continental's recommendations, when you get a low compression reading, fly it a few hours and recheck it. In virtually all cases, the compression will read different. Also, turbo Continentals are ripe for engine temperature mismanagement. If you push the throttle full forward for take-off and leave it there, you will get in trouble. Turbo Continentals are not difficult to take care of, but you have to watch your P's and Q's.

I am at RBD in Dallas. I will be glad to have you sit in my plane, when you are in my area.

People like Grainger or Mcmaster sell collars in most sizes, that can be used for safety clamps on Jacks.

Already eaten there. Food is good, if not wonderful. Prices are only a little high. Probably much in line with other airport restaurants. Overall, not a bad experience.

I should have guessed as much. Thanks.

C'mon, don't make us read a dozen technical bulletins How often do they say to do capacity checks?

With that neat an operation and production line, why is there still such a terrible wait time for a new engine. Or am I misinformed.

I have only seen copperheads on the ground. And always outside.

It would scare the crap out of me, as well, until I could get to the closest tool to kill it. That looks awfully big for the copperheads we have around here. I don't think I have ever seen/killed one over 18 or 20 inches long.

Oops

It was great getting to see so many MS folks at Mooneymax. I'm sorry the weather did not cooperate so more could have come. The program was great.

Congrats
