I thought that would be the culprit! Hope you get no more squawks going forward. Sent from my motorola edge plus 2023 using Tapatalk

There is a Mooney forum at one of the buildings on Monday or Tuesday morning, but I can't remember the details. There is no larger Mooney dinner event at the Caravan tent any longer. Sent from my motorola edge plus 2023 using Tapatalk

Thanks for the follow-up, Greg. Sorry that happened and interfered with OSH this year!

Going with the Caravan again this year, not sure of the departure date. It is such a great way to experience Oshkosh. Sent from my motorola edge plus 2023 using Tapatalk

My procrastination in choosing an upgrade path might have paid off! Can't wait to put eyes and fingers on this at OSH and see if I can finally choose an upgrade. Can you elaborate on what legacy gps/nav/com boxes can work with AXIS? Will old GNS boxes and newer "work" with it in some fashion, or must everything be the newest available? In my case, my un-educated choice in this moment would be an 11.6" display with at least the IFR GPS and COM options, and retain a separate GPS/NAV/COM box for redundancy but I would like to display on the AXIS screen, and hopefully have flight plan synced downstream to the separate legacy box. I already have the best audio panel available (PMA-450A) and engine monitor (EDM-900) so I don't want to give those up either. A remote COM 2 and XPONDER would be most welcome, though, so I can shrink my radio stack into a possible audio panel, GFC-500, GPS/NAV/COM and perhaps engine monitor as well, or offset.

Yes, now you won't need a GTN/GNX/GNS/IFD box to fly IFR legally. That is a game changer for cost and panel layout. Sent from my motorola edge plus 2023 using Tapatalk

It might be a new replacement system for the G3X and G500 that incorporates a remote GPS box and perhaps other functionality to declutter a panel. Sent from my motorola edge plus 2023 using Tapatalk

This is a huge break-through! Bravo to Dynon for making this happen. I'm sure Garmin did not want to do something like this and hurt their GTN sales, but now they might be forced to counter.

That is a gorgeous Mooney! Really well done throughout.

True, that is attractive but IMO not the primary draw since one can purchase Dynon "over the counter" and install with their own shop/mechanic/hangar, etc. whereas most of the Garmin gear requires a Garmin dealer for purchase and installation. That is what drew me to my last salvage purchase to get some GI-275's and GFC 500. Regardless, having a modern panel, relatively fresh engine, and an upgraded airframe as a salvage project...the sum total is very attractive to the right buyer. My opinion, anyway...

Yeah, I would think a new prop, engine tear-down and re-assembly, some landing gear attention and a smooth belly conversion would be fairly straight-forward for someone wanting a really nice F. It has the J windshield too as well as leather-covered J yokes.

For anyone looking for a fixer-upper, this one has a lot going for it: https://www.tmhcc.com/-/media/project/tokio-marine/shared/aircraft-salvage/n977ds-salvage.pdf

And that is what it looks like, but the console is from an earlier pre-J. The cables terminate below the windows and just push the white indicator pieces. Sent from my motorola edge plus 2023 using Tapatalk

Dennis, I should have that from my 77, but finding it is another story! I can look soon. I replaced my whole console and nose wheel well with the 81 version when I deleted the throttle quadrant. Sent from my motorola edge plus 2023 using Tapatalk
