  1. Red interior...ugh...
  2. Tell me about it... Hope you find the culprit(s) with relative ease. I imagine you will.
  3. $100 Million? I need to go start a GA Aircraft manufacturer that doesn't make any money :-p
  4. Does this have something to do with Mooney's adventure the other day? http://flightaware.com/live/flight/N887PS
  5. Scott, Here's the best resource I have for the Bendix/RSA system. I use it with all my students. http://www.precisionairmotive.com/Publications/15-812_b.pdf I had a time this summer where my spread got so out of whack right after an injector swap. We pulled the offending injector and found nothing. Re-seated the injector and put some DC-4 compound around the threads on one of the fuel lines. Problem solved. Still No idea how it happened. Spread got right back in line.
  6. I'm really excited for the amphibious Mooney that Mooney Worldwide is promising. :-p
  7. They had them last year for my plane.
  8. You're not expected to turn until climbing thru 400' AGL.
  9. Excellent experience with Tempest Fine Wire spark plugs when I changed them last year. Lower TIT and much better ignition up high. Absolutely no misfiring at high altitude.
  10. This is normal in appearance. You can still have your control and gear rigging checked. But Mooney ailerons will trail higher than the flaps.
  11. Took my CFI-A initial in the Mooney M20J I owned at the time.
  12. Except their retraction each degrades performance for a short time.
  13. I do like seeing them raced as stock. I think Sparky Air Racing (Jelly Belly P-51) races a stock Mustang.
  14. Positive rate of climb, clear of any pressing obstacles, gear up, Vy, Flaps up.
  15. Best post in this thread.
  16. I use logbook pro right now. Awful nice when it comes time to do an 8710!
  17. I have an EZ40 Powertow for sale. See the classified section under parts
  18. I just flew an M20J that was recently repaired with an elevator from a salvage yard. Didn't take long to find an elevator for it at all.
  19. If I can't move it, maybe we can add $50 to the price and I'll meet you half way in Little Rock?
  20. Runs well. Includes Mooney adapter. $1100 obo. Local Dallas, TX pickup/delivery only. Will post photos later.
  21. As I understand it, the Feds have given grants to organizations such as the one making Swiftfuel. We are making ethanol tainted gas for no good reason. Both E10 and E85. Don't put it past the Feds to subsidize and wait for another product that might not be a good idea.
  22. Scott (KSMooniac) has an M20J he is parting out.
  23. Dave, If you arrive "way too high," consider the steep spiral which is a commercial pilot maneuver. Find out how much altitude you lose in a 180 degree turn and a 360 degree turn...540, 720, etc.
