    Use the airspeed safety switch . Only works above 60 knots. It's the same switch that prevents gear operation on the ground

    The beech guy is correct Mooney G1000 also uses the 7 th probe on the collector . This summary probe is used for cruise climb rough mixture setting Then the individual probes on the engine page is for cruise level leaning The g1000 setup uses the old school method due to certification standards

    I would think you loose some range and tax power due to lack of a ground plane. If it were better and cheaper with less drag I would guess mooney would had gone that way

    I have been a pilot for 25 years and I get a little quezy if I am a passenger. Especially in boats and the back of cars or buses. But if I am in control of the boat car or airplane it's never a problem. I would guess its because my brain knows what's going to occur before it does. Maybe let you son take the controls on the cruise portion and see if that helps, Don't let it discourage him, and take it easy on the controls and weather. An old airline guy told me " he tries to fly in such a way that the business guy in back never looks up from his paper even on landing"

    The unit in my Ovation is mounted on the aft bulkhead behind the baggage compartment . Power came from the Hobbs which was powered by the airspeed safety switch

    Try and find one that has WASS and the G 700 autopilot. Some in 07 came with STEC autopilot and no WASS Mooney offered the upgrade for 60 k

    The kick is caused by the nose gear straightening upon retraction

    Get a 30-50 gallon plastic drum that you can transport with your car or truck. I place mine on an external hitch haul. Then get a low power electric pressure washer. The smaller the better as you do not need much pressure just enough to spray water for rinsing. With this setup you can wash your plane when you want and can take your time.

    The speed difference for your missions would only amount to a 10-20 minute trip Tim. I would go for the newest most comfortable model in your price range

    No need to push CDi unless you want to. It will auto switch about 10 seconds after you would push the button yourself. I would NAV GPS mode to FA fix or hdg if being vectored, then push APP after cleared for the approach. Now you know why it was named S Tec because you will s turn a few times if intercepting the loc at an angle greater than 15 degrees. Just make sure the GS and LOC are armed before starting the approach ,otherwise the AP will assume you want to continue using GPS mode and it will not couple Hope this helps. If not post your contact email or phone

    The vent in the center is a calibrated fresh air vent. It is there to prevent CO 2 buildup. It should not be blocked or shut off. The positive air pressure exits from vents in the baggage sidewalls

    No Problems, Just wondering how it was installed and how to replace it
