  1. The lens is held in with silicon like sealant. Mine came out easily. One of the bulb receptacles was replaced 2-3 years ago.
  2. @ZuluZulu At my last annual (May 2021) both rear facing recognition lights were burned out. Both had been replaced as recently as a couple years ago. My IA said since I had the Whelen Orion 550 strobe/position light it was not required to have the wingtip lights working. I just ordered and installed the Aero-Lite bulbs. Popped into place and work beautifully.
  3. “You can lead a horse to water but you can’t make him drink”
  4. With only one battery the J model POH says turn on before starting. I also just noticed annunciation light check is before starting. I’ve been doing it after
  5. Today’s (NOT) flight. Low IFR yesterday and today all over Western Washington. I drove 12 miles and at 1500 feet elevation this is the weather. Hiked instead of flying today
  6. Brenda is a retired school bus driver. Eyes in the back of her head. Would that count?
  7. So I can legally remove the center post factory installed wet compass? (I do have the slaved HSI)
  8. Welcome to the Mooney ownership club. My Tonapah photo.
  9. @OSUAV8TER My 97 J has this red beacon light on the belly. All the LED lights I have found look like the size and shape of a soup can. Are there any LEDs that are more streamlined to replace this light?
  10. When I was unable to attend in Santa Maria a few years ago due to weather I was able to later attend in Denver. This is a top notch organization that will work with you in a completely fair and open manner
  11. I have attended 9 of these and plan to go to Santa Maria in April. I recall hearing the biggest expense is insurance and expect the instructors travel expenses are reimbursed
  12. I bought N1084L (‘97 J) in 2005. It had been in Florida for a couple of years. During the 2011 annual LASAR found similar corrosion. It was an unwelcome additional expense but not disastrous.
  13. Fair market value = willing seller + willing buyer
  14. How about the the map lights in the yoke. Same bulb?
  15. The maintenance manual shows GE 1818 as stock interior bulbs, which have a BA9S base. This bulb is a different base? Just want to make sure I order correct LED replacements. Are the overhead lights the same bulb?
  16. Is the voltage to the cabin lights stepped down to 12v?
  17. Welcome back into the Mooney fold. My father was born in Chino Valley in 1923.
  18. @V1VRV2 is the glareshield compass mount a factory installation? I’d love to move the compass off the center tube where it vibrates like h*ll.
  19. I had a partner like that a long time ago. Even better, most of his flying was to fly the airplane to the shop for maintenance. Great partner
  20. I perfected that one by doing it on the coordinated start up at Madison for a Mooney Caravan formation flight
  21. The remedy for that is to have one of the Oshkosh departure flaggers see the cover and let you know
  22. 2 instrument approaches & a hold in actual. Only time the sun appeared all day. The airport beacon is I inoperable but the marijuana grow lights are a great substitute
  23. Move out of LA. No critter issues in western WA.
