  1. Just removed for upgrade KX155 with Glideslope , 14 volt and pretty too works well, 1500.00..Call Alan 856 419 5209...
  2. That does not fit the "good bones" category..
  3. Looking for my next project , An E or an F , if anyone knows of a plane sitting in a hangar or on a ramp somewhere , I am looking to bring it back to its former glory.....Must have a good "bones" airframe , I will not buy one that has been separated behind the baggage door as it seems no one can reassemble these without butchering the the skins and bulkhead when reassembling.....
  4. Let me rephrase that it is legal to fly in possible icing conditions without an oat ??
  5. So it is legal to fly in icing conditions without an OAT ??
  6. As we say in Jersey , that plane is gawjeous....
  7. Oat IS required for IFR flight , it needs to have a PMA , not a TSO...
  8. Carl is right , beware the Parrott , https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2LL3U9hDPwQ
  9. Any one know this guy? ?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p7zuQWBIhOk
  10. Yes I agree with Peter also.....HooRah Peter Garmin !!!
  11. I was surprised to find out that the Tradewinds conversion is also experimental cat..
  12. Yes , and made a new vendor , bought a bunch of radios from him..... Great trip..
  13. I was down in Winchester this morning , and looked at this bird , It is so cool , I touched it , looked under the hood , and sat in the wonderful Recaro seats....It is glorious , I was told by the owner that even the TC was cancelled , they cant cancel the TC on the engines in the field....He said that would be the equivalent of Piper pulling the TC on all the Cubs.....Kinda makes sense , he also said that the Valve springs could be sourced from the car dealers inventory , and issued as owner supplied parts , No clue as to the reality of the statements , but he is a pretty knowledgeable guy who owns a well respected engine shop......
  14. I flew down to Charlotte to do repairs on an Enstrom , 2 weeks ago , if you saw what was under the cowl , you would never even think of flying one....I have been a passenger in an Iriquios (Bell UH1) and it was a cool experience , but no way to fly in one of the toy helos.... I could have gone for a flight and decided I was good on the ground.....Although I did stand on the skid and hover a foot off the ground for a minute or two to test the belt and clutch systems...
  15. Old title issues are usually not a problem , I am trying to understand why people think a one piece belly is a plus , because it reduces the payload ???? or because it requires two people to install it ???? I know for a fact it doesn't make it go any faster.....Oh yea it makes it easier to annual because it has less screws.....Oh wait a minute.....everybody uses power screwdrivers now..... I know , allows you to cut out the damaged stringers from a gear up so you don't have to repair it correctly........That's it... Make no mistake about it , if your Mooney has a smooth belly upgrade , it was geared up.....
  16. Mama always said......Stupid is , as stupid does...... LIEUTENANT DAN !!!!!!
  17. A T6 is a certified aircraft , it is not experimental or exhibition category , you can pretty much do as yo wish with it , The Harvard (Canadian version ) is not a normal category aircraft , because of this the T6 is worth about three times what the Harvard is worth.....They are essentially the same aircraft....
  18. I sell avionics and can sell you a king 5 port blower for 100 , PM me if you want a pic , I think your plane is 28 volt...
  19. If I am not mistaken , Porsche bought them back and cancelled the Type certificate for the powerplant......
  20. Where does the engine sit when it is running at 75% power twisting on the mount??
  21. This is a parts plane , the engine is AD'd out of service , No STC to replace the engine , Not enough of em left to justify creating an STC , and the parts firewall forward are worthless...If I bought one of these new , I would have gone on a tri state killing spree !!!
  22. Just make sure that you know where the trim disconnect is , If it runs away , you may be strong enough to hold it for maybe ten minutes.....If it is frayed wires coming off of the yokeshaft , it is possible for it to runaway......best to pull the breaker until you diagnose it...
