  1. Question: Regarding the new top prop for a '67 M20C. I noticed that newer top prop spinner doesn't have the filler plates ( I am not sure what technical term /name is) but it the plates goes behind trailing edge of the prop blade and is ahead spinner bulkhead for a tighter aerodynamic seal or at one would think so . Plus I would think that the filler plate would give the spinner more strength as well. The older Hartzell has the filler plates. Is there a reason for removing them on the newer top prop?
  2. Do the Nu-lites use the same overhead dimmer that original lights overhead (red) instrutments lights use? Do they connect then in parallel with my existing instruments? if so do they cause the original overhead instrument lights to dim? Does the Nu-lites require a seperate dimmer? Thanks in Advance, James '67 M20C
  3. So I have a '67 M20C with PC installed what componets would I need to upgrade to autopilot? What Brittain Accu-Track versions / models were delivered in Mooney's? James '67 M20C
  4. Generator vs. Alternator Another advantage that the Generator's have over Alternator is the the Generator produces cleaner power. The Generator's armature is composed of multi segmented windings which helps clean up noise as well rectify ac voltage coming from the armature . Sometimes from the alternator you can get alternator wine over the headsets. In about '68 when Mooney offered the alternator option they used a big capicator externally mounted and also RFI filter (inductor) to help alievate the Alternator wine problem. Newer Alternator like Plane power has the capicator inside and there is need for a big externally mounted Capicator. I went the expen$ive route prior to plane power coming out with generator replacement kit and installed plane power alternator. Since all the parts I used for my alternator conversion where on the TCDS didn't require a 337 form and just needed A&P sign off in the logbook.
