  1. In spite of now having to R&R the panels yourself, or source the work locally, I would still suggest having Aerocomfort do the work. Their work is excellent. I plan on doing it as well.
  2. They are the listed owners of that plane. Purchased earlier this month. Walk away. I suggest you call Jimmy Garrison at GMax Aircraft. He is a well known, highly respected Mooney dealer who will either have a plane for you or will find what you are looking for.
  3. I was told once you get below 1200 rpm's the LV light will flash, and it will drop below 28v. Mine does the same thing.
  4. You might be thinking of the Bad Elf "Wombat". I have one and you simply insert the data card and download the updates. Unfortunately, I just checked theirwebsite and it is now discontinued. Don't know if there is an upgrade or replacement
  5. I don't doubt that happened, but only because it was allowed to continue. That is the downside of that specific union. What has not been stated up until now is that you cannot consider unions all the same. There are good unions and there are very bad unions. Being in the construction business, I have direct exposure with all the bulding trade unions, so my comments are limited to the construction industry. There are some unions in specific locations that I will not even deal with anymore, even if it means walking away from the work. On the other hand, there are some locals that are a pleasure to work with. They work with you to get work for their members.
  6. John, the exterior pictures of your plane show only half of the incredible restoration and modification work done!
  7. OOPS! My bad. It looks like my paint scheme (1986) If and when I paint my plane, I was thinking of keeping the original paint scheme with a few changes
  8. Congratulations Richard. Beautiful paint job. I always thought of painting my plane using the original paint scheme, and making a few minor changes from original, like you have done.
  9. No borescope? Must have just had one. This is the guy that sells you a used car and won't let you open the hood. Don't walk away - RUN
  10. I totally agree with you. Don't ask me why!!!
  11. One day I walked into the maintenance shop run by a large FBO where I used to be based. One of the better mechanics on the staff was loading his tools and rollaway on to a pickup truck. When I asked where he was going, and he told me the local Ford dealer. He went on to say that there was considerably more money working on cars and trucks rather than planes.
  12. I agree. Shoutout to Jan,Don,Paul,Jolie, Don Muncy, Frank and Missie, Richie for their tireless efforts that resulted in an incredible time. Can't wait until next year! Artie
  13. Turbo was great!
