Boy is my Mooney cold!
BlueSkyTraveler replied to steingar's topic in Vintage Mooneys (pre-J models)
I tackled this problem in my F Model. There was no one single solution but I turned it into a project and worked on every possible source of cold air incrementally.The cumulative effect was satisfactory. I have (2) CO2 meters. When it is really cold---as in single digits I notice the cabin really cools off in response to any throttle reduction. But that usually means we are arriving at our destination. Good luck! -
Landing Light Circuit Overheats?
BlueSkyTraveler replied to Lukon's topic in Vintage Mooneys (pre-J models)
I had this same problem. I switched to an LED landing light in 2015 and have never had the circuit pop again. The current draw seems to be WAY less. -

PropellerHead Aviation in Winter Haven, any reviews?
BlueSkyTraveler replied to ryoder's topic in Florida Mooney Flyers
Hello Ryan, I just spoke to Bill at Propellerheads. He said he is the owner. I was impressed with him and his knowledge of the process and his attention to detail. He offers a 7 year warranty. I think I am going to have him do the tanks on my F model. He quoted me a price of $7500 which is in line with the other quotes I have received. I would be wary of a price much lower than that, we all want a deal, but a short term deal and a long term deal are two different animals. Have you had your tanks done yet? Thanks. -
PropellerHead Aviation in Winter Haven, any reviews?
BlueSkyTraveler replied to ryoder's topic in Florida Mooney Flyers
Let me make sure I understand this -- $1850 not times two but $1850 to do both tanks? That is an outrageous price, I am getting ready to pay nearly four times that price for my F model. You have to give feedback on this, if this is correct lots of us will be beating a path to these folks hangar door. -

Do you check fuel before every flight? (POLL)
BlueSkyTraveler replied to 201er's topic in General Mooney Talk
I do check the tanks out of habit, just one of those things. If I have 5.5 hours of fuel on board and it is a 20 minute flight, I don't dip the tanks but I still do a visual on the tanks, with the plane being 45 years old I think it pays to be constanly curious and suspicious of everything. I try to be vigilant and aware regarding any small changes in behavior or appearances when it comes to "Molly" my theory is-- I take care of her and she'll take care of me. -
Joel, Goodonya for taking on this project! Did you move it to one of the T hangars on the airport? When we are in the east my wife and i jump with the folks at MSPC there on the field. We hope to get to meet you some weekend if you are there. You might also get some help with anything you need from the folks who maintain the clubs 2 C182's. Ann Ross or Dave Dewolf or Ken Plankenhorn would help i am sure. Look forward to meeting you and seeing the progress, she looked so forlorn sitting out there in the weeds, it was heartbreaking.....

Just wondering if anyone has downloaded WINGX on the new iPad? I bought one on Friday and downloaded WINGX on it. The moving map function has issues. On Hiltons page I see they are aware of the problem and are working on it. I had WINGX on my iPad 1 and it was alwayse flawless, was hoping to see if it was faster/better on the newest iPad but so far.......................waiting.
