So after 5 Months, we're finally done! I'm beyond excited and cannot say how grateful I am for all the feedback from the members and fellow pilots here. I've got a slew of questions about my 650, MVP-50, Aspen, and Brittain Auto Pilot. I'm looking forward to getting a few more hours under my belt however, before I start firing off inquiries while I'm still learning the interfaces. In the meantime, please enjoy these marginally ok pics until I get some better ones tomorrow and Sunday http://mooneyspace.com/gallery/album/14052-panel-upgrade33/

For a second I thought I had gotten dragged into this, and with bad facts... lol Wrong Abe. That aisde, I'd venture to bet that I've frayed Don's feathers quite a few times with my overly inquisitive nature while he was upside down in the cabin of a plane fixing the yoke shaft to the linkages. Never had a harsh word from him. More importantly I've learned to listen to what he doesn't say. I think it's a fair statement to make that Don (like most of us) doesn't deal with stupidity well, but I've always known him to silently grin and keep moving forward rather than erupt in a maniacal manner especially over a question he doesn't like proposed. As for Jan, well, I would say the same things about her that I would about my own mother, but I also know she's a "no nonsense" kinda gal. Expect Momma Hen to defend her nest if you attack first. I would expect the same from my wife (who by the way is also my office Manager). That being said, the OP admittedly provoked an argument, then purposely defamed the character of the provoked. To me that's a little (sarcasm intended) unfair. What's interesting is that throughout this entire thread you've seen no rebuttal from DMax. I'm sure as small as the aviation community is that he's heard the news by now. I also know that his business is valuable enough to him that when warranted he does respond to credible public relations. If it's not worth his time, I'm wondering why we're honoring this rant in the first place... Warmest Regard, Abe L. Harper, Jr.

Happy Holidays to All! Having a few down moments to gather myself and thoughts this week, I realized that I have WAY too much stuff lying around that may be of use to others. So that being said, I'm going to list pics of a few things I'm trying to part with. All funds go toward the "Keep Abe off the Ground" cooperative. Some funds will be allocated toward a Stratus 2, but the largest of the proceeds will be going to the "'Gas is getting Cheap, Fly Faster' Act". Prices may be negotiable, but please no lowball or insulting offers. 1.) 12 RHM38S Champion Fine Wire Plugs - 8 Used for less than 15hrs, 4 New (opened for inspection and pics only) - Used Plugs: $45ea - New Plugs: $65ea - Would prefer to sell as a set. In the pic, the left plug is one of the new ones, the right plug is one of the used ones. 2.)King KI201C - Repaired by Eddie Washburn just last month, but we decided not to reinstall due to panel space. He back with a 6 month warranty. $110 3.) Bad Elf Pro GPS - Used for the past year with my iPad, but I'm upgrading to a Stratus 2 when Synthetic Vision is available, so I won't be using this little Gem any longer. - SOLD 4.) David Clark H20-10 Headset - Almost new condition. Gel pads are perfect. Cord has no wear. Mic Wind filter is a little tattered and compressed from storage and could stand to be replaced. (See Pics). SOLD 5.) WxWorx REWX9ID Reciever, Baron Mobile Link, Link USB Cable (Also have the Bluetooth Module for), and External Antenna - Since we're going to get a stratus, these little guys need a new home as well. $400 for the complete set. (Bluetooth Receiver alone is selling on Ebay for over $325) 6.) Mitchell Gauge Cluster and Gauges - This was uninstalled by Don Maxwell when I purchased our M20C because it is not a PMA part for my aircraft from what I was advised. His words were "It's a shame, because those gauges are more reliable than the old factory ones most times". None the less it had to go. Cluster Housing and all gauges - $375 7.)AnywhereMap DeX - Do these things have any value any more? I have one sitting around that has been orphaned since my iPad and Foreflight. It's a shame because it's a nice computer with Windows 7 on an SSD and Touchscreen, but I just don't know what they're worth. Anyone interested in it? Still has AWM software loaded on it. - Let's Negotiate if you're interested, I don't even know where to start on this thing. I'm sure it's worth something to someone. :-) 8.) Haicom HI408BT Bluetooth GPS - Used with The DeX. If my memory serves correctly, it wasn't iPad friendly, so we went to the Bad Elf Pro at that time. - $75 I don't have pics of the XM and Baron Bundle as it's still in the plane at the shop, will go get them if an interested buyer reaches out to me. Thanks

Awesome news. Safe flying back when it arrives!
