Curious as to what the electric boost pressure is supposed to be as well

not to detract - but with the mention of the eddy current inspection..... I just had a top end and while the prop was off decided it should go in for a look see / rebuild 2900 dollars later - I have a rebuilt, AD free propeller. I think the next step will definitely be a dynamic balance.

actually you'd be better going the other way- I've heard that the better way is to fab up some plexi "windows" for the tank access - apply soapy water to the seams and pull a slight vacuum to find the leak point - in our tanks the leak will travel and not necessarily indicate the actual spot with pressure.

I'm thinking that it was a quick turn on a hot engine - the length of time sitting to take on fuel could have vaporized fuel giving the poor performance at first and then clearing later.

I'm simple minded - and will probably get yelled at should I go there but whatever section of the pattern is just that - downwind base final the first drawing to me results in a three mile final the second drawing and what I would interpret as the controllers request is a three mile approach on the base leg with a normal turn to final in my short flying time the class D's I've flow into set up with an X mile call to mid field downwind. With a couple exceptions to a x mile straight in. My GPS gives the distance so when it hits the desired distance I key up.

@MitchS - Looks the person who told me the display on the 430 is picky on his interpretation of resolution - that picture is defiantly acceptable in my book. @carusoam - I was leaning that way as well - when I got the 430 three years ago I bought it used and sold a King 155 net cost was about 3 amu net (plus insstall) for the sake of the forum I've started a go fund me @ KSN770 for Ropers @Jerry 5TJ - see now that kind of stats are exactly what I need to help convince the CFO with something other than "cuz everyone else has one" Thanks all!

Looking at a couple options for the eventual ADS-B mandate Do I Upgrade my 430 to 430W and tie it to a GDL88 or GDL84 Not upgrade the 430 and buy a GDL88 or GDL84 with internal wass Buy a transponder with internal WASS Obviously the 430 WASS upgrade will bring the added capability of GPS approaches - how many out there use that instead of ILS. the difference between the 88 and 84 is the display on the 430 and 530 etc - but I've heard the resolution is lacking on the 430 and I would more than likely not use that.

I put mine in with the suction cups either side of the center bar - haven't trimmed for the curve yet.

Anybody have a good line on nozzles for the IO-360-A1A - not really interested in gamis at this point.

Welcome to the family! Let us know the final outcome!

I did it with a sublimation printer and heat press - I might be persuaded to get some out to fellow Mooneyspace members. Think $10 is acceptable?

Made with a hi res picture - a custom mouse pad of my plane

Here's my version!

Hmm - it really seems to me that the Amps are reacting to some type of draw, your volts are remaining pretty level. Have you pulled all the breakers and monitor the amps? if it levels out, engage one at a time and watch the fluctuations.

With the Alt off the dips are evenly spaced - like maybe a strobe power supply?

As another data point - My 67F was a hanger queen - had been sitting with relatively no yearly hours flown in the prior three years. Basically it was taken up yearly to warm the engine for the compression check during the annual. I bought it as a newly minted pilot with about 95 hours after talking with the Mechanic that had maintained it for the last 12 years prior to my purchase. I paid 32K - it had 2234 air frame and 380ish SMOH As soon as I bought it I chose to replace the tires. I had a leak in the left wing tank, I chose to repair the leaks I chose to update one of the radios with a GNS430 and flew it for two years (about 250 hours) I HAD to replace a transponder and a blind encoder when they went south. And I HAD to repair a VSI after the glass was broken (don't ask) I Chose to replace the side windows, and I chose to modify the stock windshield with a 201 mod. I Chose to have the interior replaced. I continue to fly the plane without reservation and have gone from Texas to Oshkosh four times, from Texas to Gulf Shores twice. Out to New Orleans a couple times. My owner assisted Annuals run less than 800. My insurance is running about 1k. Clearly the things that I have chosen to update or replace far outweighs the cost if I were to have left it as is. And its hard to say if the radio I replaced would have hung in. Interior was about 12k the radio and panel update was about 7.5K, The windows and windshield mod about 5K. I assisted in prepping the tank seal, so that was < 1K (and has been without issue since done. Is my plane worth 55 to 60K - dunno - but I'm not selling it and if it were to bring less I would still be happy with my decisions as they brought comfort and joy when flying. In my view - it's easy to get into replacing stuff because of what you may read from other owners, they may be relevant to their situation but may not apply in yours. Each item should be carefully examined and considered prior to doing it based on the opinion of a non mechanic.

Does that mean he has signed on to support it or just that he's going to watch it...... never mind - found it New York Neither Senator is currently a cosponsor Nice letter .......

I had an issue signing in - I had a username that doesn't work now - but the email did!!

Before you replace the displays - if the issue is with the readouts - missing segments etc - check and clean the contacts between the display and the radio - a pencil eraser works wonders

For fun I've used it on commercial flights RJs usually work well Airbuses do too - most of the 7x7s dont kind of neat to see the gps altitude and cabin altitude. The real benefit is the ADS B stuff you get with the stratus but without it the internal works good.

I'd go with 88EE

Thats ventilation for the Lav mod - you put the john in the baggage area - with the elite version a seat belt expands the occupancy to 5.

I'm betting filler - I don't see any rivets - the true test is whether you can see into the cabin through the crack or if there's aluminum under there.
