  1. No issues that they admit.
  2. So what’s the explanation now for the issues being observed?
  3. Here’s the panel stripped on the 93J model. David
  4. @mooniac58 donation made. Thank you, David
  5. On a 1993 J model I take care of, I stripped the paint off of the panel above the tailpipe. On this airplane it is stainless steel and the paint was burned and peeling. Nice and clean just being stainless. David
  6. Apparently my donation that allowed me additional photo space has expired. Will need to make a new donation to be able to post photos again. The spring looks like mine.
  7. Ok. That’s your view, although I don’t agree with it but respect it. So how about this, instead of yours and others anger, why don’t we channel that into a solution? How about we start a collection to help Jimmyred get a new panel cut? I’ll put $50 to Jummyred getting a new panel cut out. Since it’s a recent panel, getting a new one shouldn’t be too expensive. Any others willing to work towards a solution for Jimmyred?
  8. May I ask you the same question? Why are you so angered over someone else’s issue?
  9. I’ll stop out and get a picture of mine today for comparison.
  10. He’s made his point clear as mud. He has an issue with a shop. Did this shop harm your aircraft? If not, why are you so angry about something that didn’t affect you? None of this is going to fix his panel nor do I have a solution for him to make him happy. Do you have that solution other than venting?
  11. Twenty posts starting at page 5 of this thread isn’t enough for you? Ok, continue to vent away.
  12. Ok, and again not trying to be rude or insulting, but your point has been made and is clear. Thanks
  13. I’m not trying to be rude or insulting, but what do you want? I think you made your point but by continuing to say the same thing, you’re losing your audience. What’s your end game here on Mooneyspace?
  14. Amen. Fuel should have Never been an STC. It’s only a matter of time before someone becomes that smoking hole if this stuff is continued to be used and sold as a complete drop in replacement. I will not be that IA in that mess.
  15. Just a question knowing what we know now, as an IA, would you sign the 337 for this STC? I don’t think I could if I was asked to. Thoughts?
  16. What’s the earliest year C or E you have headliner plastic from? I’m looking to do something other than the stretched fabric headliner in my 56 M20. Thanks, David
  17. It’s not the only route. I installed new fuel caps and flanges in the 66C I previously owned. My 337 with parts listed is on MS but I’ll look for it and post it here for your info in a day or two, David
  18. @Jerry Pressley do you have any decent headliner plastic pieces from a C model? Thanks, David
  19. Definitely post war. Nothing like that on the two P-51’s we had.
  20. Did anyone else notice the 45% or 25,000 Mooney aircraft comment in George’s statements? Just a little bit off on the number of Mooney’s ever built.
  21. Military structural repair manuals such as TM 55-405-4 are approved data and contain repairs on corrugated skin flight controls. I used a TM55 manual along with AC 43.13 for a repair to a Piper rudder years ago. It’s a fun conversation with the young FAA inspectors when they see the reference. David
  22. I haven’t made much progress so far this Winter as I’ve been doing hangar shuffles to keep the airplanes I’m working on currently in the heated hangar. The 56 M20 is currently in a cold hangar and hopefully I’ll move it to some heat soon. David
  23. To add to Ragedracer1977 comments, along with sending the engine manufacturers barrels of fuel, in an e-mail with GBraly he stated that they wanted six figure $’s to test the fuel in their engines and GAMI said no.
  24. I don’t feel the need to get in a back and forth of who’s more experienced. Like I stated, you get to choose what you like or what you think is best for you. Thankfully, I get to do the same. I have ACF-50 in stock and use it as needed. My Mooney isn’t based on a carrier or getting a saltwater bath any time soon.
  25. The FAA would contact GAMI and ask them if they wanted to release any of their data and all GAMI has to say is that they consider all of it proprietary and none of it will released. The STC protects GAMI from releasing any of their data. Been there, done that with an STC I hold.
