  1. Has a time and place been determined yet? Like to plan ahead and attend. It definitely sounds like an interesting class with a lot of good item’s being covered.
  2. All it takes is AMU. More AMU more toys…
  3. That crackling after MRT is added sounds like the Apollo rocket after they lit the fuse.
  4. Just talked to Guy today. He had two sets of Sceet for the M20C. I purchased one of them. Comes as a set for everything you need under the cowling. Said from here on out was going to have to special order. Very easy to work with and very professional. Bought today and already shipped out. Thanks Guy.
  5. I use to fly into Baton Rouge. They had a car and Tony’s down on Plank road had some really good Cajun food. Best known for their catfish. Swimming on one end and fried on the other. Only problem was it was more of a take out and we would go back to the FBO and devour it there.
  6. This is the latest from Duncan. Received yesterday. Hi Charles, Sorry for the delay, on your voicemails... We have stock on all STC Kits.... But, we are not expecting Bendix King ODA approval on the amended drawings and installation instructions until middle of 2026. Thanks
  7. Aero Comfort 210-340-0177. Hector. Redid my seats. Easy to work with. Very accommodating. Will build to what you want or will give you clues to comfort. All certified.
  8. Have you done a current weight and balance? If the aircraft has been modified or changed it might be cheap knowledge.
  9. I used to practice this in a PC 12. 800 feet was the altitude needed to successfully complete. Practiced in the sim multiple times prior to field. Actually worked well with room to spare. However, as stated above many variables to take into consideration.
  10. Oxygen is a dry gas. If you are using aviation oxygen there should not be any water involved. That is one of the reasons that during long transports or continuous use of oxygen they incorporate water downstream to moisturize it. It is also one of the reasons for the tank checks every five years. It checks for rust and moisture in the tank. As you’re coming down from altitude the heat inversion should melt any ice that is in the system.
  11. Thanks. Done
  12. This is the latest and greatest from Duncan. Looks like it is held up at Bendix. Hi Scooter Yeah, this is hard to stomach and I am sad for Mooney operators.... I wish we could get some traction with upper management at the OEM to get this pushed forward...but this is where we are at the moment... The original STC drawings and installation instructions have been revised by Duncan Aviation Engineering, which was sent off to Bendix King in June of 2025. BK Engineering has been evaluating the revised Duncan information (for several months now), and once that evaluation is completed, BK Engineering will ask the BK ODA to approve this additional data "as approved supplemental data to use with the original STC". We are hoping to have the BK ODA approve on this revised data the end of Quarter 4 of 2025, but additional parts have to be designed, manufactured and added to the original STC kits (which won't happen until approximately the end of Quarter 1 of 2026). Thanks
  13. I work on an ambulance and use a SPO2 monitor on all patients. I have and should notice a difference between the patients. A couple of readings I got were machine driven in that one minute it will read in the 80’s and the next it will read mid 90’s. Another factor that I have found is placement of the finger probe. Different finger’s different readings. In other words the finger is a reference.
  14. Agree with what’s right for one may not be right for another. During chamber rides you would notice some people effected faster then others and displayed different symptoms.
  15. I just hate to see another perfectly good flying aircraft damaged
