Flew a Tiger for a couple of years and loved it. Stepped up to a K not a J. Major differences were: - heavier controls not as nice and easy as in the Tiger - a lot more stable in turbulence and during approaches - Tiger is more a low altitude airplane - Visibility and cabin access in the Tiger is much better - much better grass field capability (Tiger) - Performance improvements were significant - higher maintenance costs although the Mooney is not so bad Hope that helps

That is way to low. You should be 24-25. The exact amount can be found in I think sid97-3g from Continental.

I thought he mentioned that cruise went up again after putting the old prop back on
-
Lloyd lost quite some airspeed with his and therefore didn't use it for his RTW trip. Could you probably do some tests before and after the installation of yours to see if this prooves for other installations also ?

LOP GUY POURS ON THE COAL SURPRIED BY RESULT
Emmet replied to MyNameIsNobody's topic in Vintage Mooneys (pre-J models)
As long as you are LOP increasing the fuel flow increases power and that increases TAS. No surprise I doubt that you have still been LOP at 12.2 - don't trust the E3 especially when you only increased FF and haven't redone the leaning procedure. -

Looks really nice ! How many teeth do you have on each gear?

Calling Peter King Swiss Watch Garmin
Emmet replied to Marauder's topic in Avionics/Panel Discussion
Do they really think anybody buys a new product of them after their latest repair announcements? -
I don't do it myself therefore I don't know the sealant. I was asking because I have planned a longer trip in May and am trying to find out if the job can be done in time.
-
Assuming that the tank has already been stripped and cleaned how long does it take from sealing to be ready to fill up ?
-
It usually is RG400

To me it looks like the DB concierge works only for the Jepp charts not the nav database.
-
On the KFC200 it will give you only altitude preselect no VS select. VS select is only available on the KFC 150 and other AP models. The box that adds altitude hold for the Aspen technically only automates the push on the alt button of the AP.

I thought the EDM 900 doesn't have a frequency input?
-
I suffer with you and can imagine how frustrating that process must be. I wish you all the luck - and please keep us updated [emoji106][emoji846]

I am still discussing the installation with my AI. How did you guys got it signed of with the EDM? @Scott: Is there anything from the directorate that I can use to convince my AI?
-
That sounds interesting. I paid 299 each the last time. Where did you find a reference that those are the #633358 equivalent?
-
My experiences are quite similar to yours. A few thoughts about the infallability of the manufacturers: Were they able to design a balanced intake system? Did they even recognize how important that is ? How many tries did it take them to build a good turbo installation ? Have they ever published any data? I personally believe in what is most reasonable according to the available data, but that is everybody's own choice. One more thought about the coking: if the pressure of the hot oil drops below the turbo chargers check valve pressure of 15psi while running at low rpm - could this probably cause what you intend to avoid ...?
-
There are lots of turbo diesels from different auto manufacturers which are equipped with a start stop system in Europe. This system shuts down the engine all the time when the car stops for more than a few seconds even if it has been run hard for the last minutes or hours (and they are run hard with high power when driving 135mph). Obviuosly they don't see a problem ...

Great - Thanks !

Hi Andrew, nice to see that you plane makes good progress. Looking forward to see the finished result [emoji846] Did you manage to take a look at my baby ? Could you see how far they are?
-
Then you might take a look at my tanks as well. Willem mentioned you might think about avionics in the future. I do have a source and CAD data for the panel if you need it ...
-
I have also been there yesterday to deliver my Mooney for a full reseal. Took a look at your baby and it really looked nice. Would have been nice to meet you - Willem mentioned your trouble at the airport. I think we missed you for about half an hour. Would love to see your plane finished :-)
-
Have you been successful ?
-
Where did you find them?
