  1. It is incredibly irresponsible to ASSUME that he ran out of fuel........
  2. So Marauder , is the farm the source of you "livestock" ?????
  3. I sell used aircraft parts , That being said , I sell them relatively cheap....I will not allow a customer to remove cylinders to inspect the innards , Accessories yes , but jugs no.....I also generally like to sell to rebuilders , as this eliminates my liability on these matters....
  4. I would say in the area of 75% of wholesale 5500 to 6000 dollars.... Keep in mind that is new (Basically we have a coupon to redeem it from MCIC (mid continent) ) As far as waiting for Sandia ,it is entirely possible that they will be cheaper , but I have Been flying with ADS-B out almost 2 years now , and most people are still waiting..... Sometimes its better to pay a little more , than wait..... I also don't believe that Sandia will have a unit for 3500.00 Sandia makes high quality goods and they are priced accordingly .....
  5. I have one that was won by a friend of mine at Oshkosh last year , It is still at Mid Continent , if any one is interested PM me...
  6. Here's a fact , the cams spall , when the lifters stop turning , Question , why do the lifters stop turning ???
  7. Speed is ground track , not airspeed , The good news is he can tell us what actually happened if he so chooses.....Great job.....
  8. I was under the impression that Factory remans came with roller cams.....Am I mistaken???
  9. The take off and slip restrictions on the Bonanza have to do with unporting the fuel system , If you have ever been close up to a V tail it is HUGE , I don't even know if it is possible to shadow it enough to stall it.... Also the Mooneys have a very narrow airfoil on the tails , which may contribute to the possibility of stalling the tail in a slip.......Just an observation , no real engineering data to back it up....
  10. So Skyjunkie , by now you must realize that this question was an exercise in futility.......
  11. It is a new Concoction , Ed Kollin and TCM are testing it getting ready for certification.....
  12. It was Peter Garmin..... I saw him do it !!!!
  13. The case repairs are not always long lasting , Superior is now making new cases , not sure of the cost....
  14. Did power on stall training in an E a few years ago..... I will NEVER do power on stalls in a Mooney EVER ... There is nothing conventional about recovering from an inverted spin...... Just my two cents.....Even cleaning the brown stain from my skivvies was "unconventional"
  15. I have one from a C and an E
  16. Looks like your Mooney has tits on its back!!!
  17. Heres the deal on the KG102A , as far as install with the Sandel , it uses 7 wires as compared to the KCS55a system , it is a breeze to install , as long as it does not have a gold gyro can , it can be serviced.....If it is post serial # 34951 , it is a Mod 7 power supply and will probably last forever...... The Sandel units will backup the gyro by averaging the flux info into a simulated gyro presentation , hence if you lose the gyro , you are still good .... The problem with the Sandel install in the panel is that when you pull back the yokeshaft it raises about an inch in an upward arc near the bottom of the lowest hole (The HSI hole) , I compensated for this by shimming the lower mounting holes with flat washers between the panel and the instrument.....this tilted the back of the instrument upward and cleared the yokeshaft , BUT it caused clearance issues between the HSI and the horizon....Its doable , but challenging , And if you have ever flown with a Sandel , It is FANTASTIC!!!!!
  18. I had a SN3308 in the SWTA panel in the bottom slot above the yokeshaft , it wont fit without the bend on the old style as the yokeshaft will interfere with it , also Keep in ,mind that connectors for the 3500 are rigid type and will add an extra 2 inches beyond the depth of the instrument...
  19. If anyone needs a 525A system , I sell -07 mod 7 systems for 2K ........
  20. I have done the SWTA panel mod , They eyeball for the yokeshafts gets cut out so the structure will be different , and may not accommodate the older style anymore.....Dave Matthieson of Airmods in Robbinsville NJ is trying to sell a set of articulating seats , they have been on barnstormers a few times, you may want to check it out,,,,
  21. Probably a blessing in disguise , running it a minute after the oil pumped out didn't put metal in the filter , or damage the internals....
  22. I was being sarcastic Lance....
  23. The adapter from stratus is dual voltage 24/14 .....
  24. Hey Pete , the dog ate my homework.........
  25. Guys , the parts I was referring to were used parts....as far as maintenance is concerned the Bo's are not parts whores....The only part that I had to buy from beech in 4 years was an uplock cable for the gear , and it was 150.00 .. Any other parts I needed were generic ... Perhaps I have been lucky....
