No (short answer )

Possibly you could contact Mark Rouch, Top Gun. Mark did the mod on his F years ago..................He called the plane his F n J.

You may receive a call from the FAA soon!!

It’s good Mooney moved on from the name ….Mite !

Whoops…. I’m incorrect. The tailpipe is off an O-360, not an IO-360. Sorry I couldn’t help you.

PM me please. I have a tailpipe from my former Mooney IO-360 A1A. This might help you. I'd attache a photo, but MS says I can't! I'll email a photo of it to you once I learn your address. Mitch

Congratulations! That will be so terrific seeing the new fresh paint. Looking forward to finished photos please.

There were many times I would simply raise the plane on the jacks. Easy to do and provided plenty of room underneath for cleaning the belly. And with the Ovation, sometimes I'd just remove the one piece panels and clean them away from the fuselage. That was also fairly easy to accomplish without laying under the plane for extended periods

This creeper discussion is very interesting indeed. However, and more importantly is possibly a device/system needed to lower and raise us older/geezer pilots off of and onto the creeper itself. Perhaps a new thread of videos showing how you [old farts, you know who you are] get up and down onto and off of your personal creeper!! Using the roll off method, and laying on your side, then making your way on your hands and knees, maybe a grab bar to elevate yourself vertically........with the slick, fast easy rolling of the Aerocreeper, does it go flying out from under you as you try to roll off?

Media reporting some no longer do !

Suggestion to the Intuitive Machines engineer in-charge of activating the laser powered range finders switch prior to launch.................maybe don't ask for a letter of recommendation from your former employer during your new job search.

If we do get photos taken from Odie, in its near horizontal position, maybe Anthony can rotate the photos 90 degrees or so.

If all goes to plan, Intuitive Machines' Odysseus spacecraft will attempt a lunar landing Thursday afternoon, returning America to the moon's surface for the first time in 52 years. Flight controllers said Wednesday that the lander "continues to be in excellent health" ahead of a landing attempt planned for around 5:30 p.m. EST. A successful touchdown would make the Houston-based space company the first commercial enterprise to ever land a spacecraft on the moon. It would also be the first American moon landing since NASA's Apollo program came to an end in 1972.

My favorite realistic [for me] low wing airplane................all my former Mooney's....................next on the list, P-51
