  1. When will enough be enough? I'm talking in regards to the world of technology. First we have UAV aircraft and then advance axis autopilots , ads-b traffic devices, glass cock pit, etc. Now recently x-plane creator came out with an app that will land your plane for you in case of a medical emergency. I'm not saying it is a bad idea, I'm saying when will the human race stop relying on technology to do everything for them? It is a proven fact that pilots now days struggle with basic piloting when they loose their auto pilots, forefights, gps, etc..... I promise you today's pilots do not have the " stick and rudder" skills as pilots 10 years ago and God knows 20+ yrs ago. I read and work with people everyday and I see people, mechanics and pilots, lose their troubleshooting skills, all because they do not know their systems and skills.
  2. I used KING in Oklahoma
  3. I love IFR!
  4. I do not off the top off head. however any breaker that meets the amperage should work
  5. This may seem nieve of me but I think GA engines are a lot like the turbine engines I work on in the military. They can hold 13 qts but they piss it all out to a certain happy spot.
  6. Appreciate it fellas! Jut wish I could fly, but seems I'm stuck on the ground Til my field overhaul is complete.

  10. I had the cowling piece and stc given to me as a present from my IA. Guess I will use my A&P and install it

  12. It's very hard to own a plane period! Wish she was flyable more often. But technically I owned a plane when I was 19, just not a mooney. She came along when I was 23.

  16. Had to edit the number
  17. Finally got my actual card in!
  18. Also. There is nothing wrong with preventive maintenance when it comes with hoses and etc
  19. You do not need to be an A&P to have common sense and know how to compile data and conduct research. You can not compare an engine from the east coast with XXXX hours and one from the Midwest and west. There are to many factors, and as dead above, you can keep your plane in a climate controlled hangar and still not be immune. If you look at my last forum thread, my engine has sat a lot and still looks good.
  20. I would install the the radio shack dimmer and also sign it off!
  21. Those are to big for what I need. I used those for my new led covers
