I remember what got me into a mooney. I was flying back from Hilton Head Island in a cherokee 180. I remember my ground speed was in the upper-60's. I knew it was time for a retrac at that point.

Some of the commanders have life limits, but it may be the wings (?).

What's your pirep on the electric step? Any regrets?
-
when we had that whopping 1/2" of snow here a few years ago, it went off in my wife's Lexus. I'll chalk that up to inexperience in ice/snow, but it did get my attention.
-
Let us know if you end up using it. I'm fine now, but it's good to know options when the time comes.
-
I'm just asking out of ignorance. Maybe those repairs are approved by the manufacturer? -
Just asking a couple of dumb questions. They'll be able to compensate for the wear on the used blocks when they're designing new ones? Also, they use aluminum to minimize wear on the Johnson bar itself?
-
Haha. We've all been guilty of that.
-
Doesn't work at home or at work, either. another $25 to the cause.
-
I think my wit and charm on this forum are payment enough.
-
Thanks for checking. Do you or anyone know what the approximate cost to produce the blocks will be?

Beauty M20C just popped on Controller

my motto is buy high and sell low. I'll wait for the next recession to sell my plane. -
that's because your taxes are split between you and the mosquitoes and gnats.

That seems like a lot. What's the temp when you poured it?

Is Alan using the Kingsford in the first pic as starter fluid?
-
He should have listed the price as 1 AMU.

I would definitely get a 3rd screen if they would do that. I wouldn't want it to be limited to just an engine monitor, but having primary gauges in addition to other stuff would definitely spark my interest. I've asked other forum members, and they agree with you. It's the lack of utility the mfd500 brings to the table that keeps them from biting. Keep us updated if you could. I'm on the cusp of buying a jpi 930 this year but would change gears if this was a viable option. .

All those old pilots and flight instructors with hearing loss can vouch for its utility.
-
Allowing someone to simply replace a traditional round steam gauge is huge.

Aspen Pro MAX Issues Communication From Aspen Avionics
rbridges replied to Andy Smith's topic in Avionics/Panel Discussion
Same thing happened to me. I guess it's a well known problem; another forum member jumped right on the answer because he had the same antenna problem. Also, the avionics shop interrupted my story and said it was the antenna. -
So, does the down block get more wear and tear? After seeing everyone jump on these threads, I feel like I should get an extra set to put on the shelf.
-
oh wow, I sure didn't.
-
I read that some of their components are 3rd party parts, and therefore, it may be out of Garmin's hands whether or not they can continue supporting a device. But, yeah, I agree there should be something more they could do. Being on the same side of things as you with my 430, I empathize.
-
at least no prop strike.
-
I didn't realize this was hard to find. I'd also be interested.
