  1. When I had to replace my AI on my E model in 2007, it was measured to be 8 degrees, but it was not the split panel that existed in others of the same vintage.
  2. About ten tears ago or so, Clarence walked me through building something like yours during an owner-assisted annual. Nice and simple. Then, four years later, while on a MAPA Pilot Proficiency Program course, the instructor I was flying with indicated I really needed to lock the baggage door to prevent its opening in flight. He, apparently, had this happen to him. However, since it never happened to me, I declined. Doing so negated the utility of the new egress safety device on the door.
  3. Just finished something similar. My GPS is a 480 and my NAV/COM is an SL30. Same order top to bottom - PS 8000, GNS 480, SL 30, GTX 330D-ES.
  4. +1. Owned mine for nearly 20 years and it doesn’t get unbalanced at all - left or right.
  5. Or, when you need it to enter rule airspace so they will actually clear you into the zone of one of the large number of US airports with Class C. Not a requirement in Canada yet, but it is coming. I don't need the hassle and normally flying IFR allows for a couple of other sets of eyes to watch what is happening in my vicinity. So for IFR flying, it is clear to me that ADSB out is required. ADSB in? Depends.
  6. That is what it cost me to replace the outer port wingtip and first skin inboard of that.
  7. Or you can ask someone who has no bias at all, and they will tell you to get a 65 E. OK maybe a little bias.
  8. I find the 700 to be "good enough." I would prefer a 900, but I am not there yet. Got enough issues with having to replace my Narco Mk 12D with an SL 30 (and the associated resolver), and installing a GTX 330 DES to cover all of North American ADSB transponder out requirements.
  9. Thanks for the response. I was mostly wondering about the fit since the spruce speaker appears to be slightly larger than OEM. Mine fit fine.
  10. Still works good. Don’t use it much, but it is there if I need it
  11. I use the screwdriver bit on the end of my fuel tester. It is like the one shown here but mine has a metal probe for the drain valve. It appears it is not sold anymore with the metal probe.
  12. Alan: Did Brenda go with you this year? If so, tell her Ute and I miss her.
  13. We saw the landing on youtube yesterday. It was in two separate videos. Well done. Predator looks good in A element. Was Hoser the lead this year as designated from last year? If so, good job Hoser.
