  1. WX500 is the only remote option, unfortunately they quit making it, used ones are around 5 grand, and the repairs are flat rate and theyre also around 3500-4000$.
  2. Ive flown over 5hrs with a 54 gallon airplane. 6:20 I think it was.
  3. We also had a capacitor fail and we had to send a mag back for another check so since then I will specify new capacitors on everything that gets sent out
  4. I like the guys in Montana the best, but they don't work on the dual mag so I send those to Aero accessories.
  5. Forget rebuild. But a 500hr insp with new capacitors by aero accessories van Nuys Is solid gold
  6. Did the prebuy not identify these two issues ?
  7. you can jack the nose wheel with a pipe and a bottle jack. we have a tube at GAI
  8. Definitely wire it through a circuit breaker, and then feed the RS-232 map MX mode to the navigator. They will synchronize the flight plans it's very nice.
  9. For the same size hole in the panel you can have a one screen solution, the GI275
  10. Aircratf Hose Shop in Granite City IL does most of my hoses.
  11. the right 1977-78-79 J may bring a lot of money. The basic airplane is the same until the end of the production run. newer interiors, avionics, paint, and interior can narrow the gap.
  12. Jimmy has a 78 with an inop autopilot for 165k.
  13. That's almost verbatim language from that FAA AC about parts substitution. But this says you should send in a letter of intent to use some of these parts. However the FSDO's have used Covid to basically ignore anything from anyone.
  14. You already can do that under the aging aircraft program.
  15. JPI doesn't really have a yellow arc for the oil pressure on the EDM 830, but I think the 900 has a yellow band so between 25 and 60 is yellow and then below 25 is red on the 900.
  16. its basically 5-7K more for a brighter, faster, slightly improved 750. But the stock base GTN750 is a whole leap forward from the 430/530 navigators, its pretty compelling, especially at 12-13K used plus install.
  17. I think surefly says that their unit puts our 20,000V, the same as a Slick magneto. It is 40,000 for starting. They also have you run the stock plug gap as well.
  18. You're doing this right now with a 62 M20C we are going from all of that stuff to a single Garmin G.I.275
  19. You modify the impulse coupler of magneto so it has the right part number for a 25 degree engine, and then you make a log entry stating your un-complying with the "optional" service instruction, and then stamp the data plate to 25.
  20. plenty written on this
  21. The dual electronic ignition solution for this plane seems more complicated than the Bendix dual mag.
