  1. You can try calling Mike at LV avionics located at hangar 7 KABE, he is extremely knowledgable and will point you in the correct direction..
  2. Quote: Cruiser The Aspen MFD is of greatest value as a redundant PFD. Aspen will eventually get the FAA approval for removing the legacy AI and then the entire vacuum system can be pulled. until then the MFD can be put in reversion mode and used as a second HSI in addition to be used as a moving map, displaying route, traffic, weather, terrain and approach plates. I have used a tablet PC on the yoke for years. It has all the features of the MFD and more BUT I always worry about it not working, batteries going dead, crashing, loosing GPS signal and a whole list of other issues that limit it reliability in the cockpit. The wires are a hassle as is the yoke mount on entering and exiting the cabin. I have hooked the cables with my foot and yanked the tablet on the floor more than once.
  3. We had our pitch servo sent to autopilot central because we were getting a trim failure, the servo was over 20 years old, this pitch servo was refurbed for $1200 but.......we still have the continuing problem with the trim failure( the auto trim wont work) but the a/p on start up passes the start up test, hopefully during the annual it can be fixed. AP central does very good work, they of course did not originally diagnos the problem but only had to refurb the servo so I cant blame them. btw this is a KFC 150
  4. Both designs are great, can you send me the designers info. Thx
  5. Our 201 is in the paint shop being prepped, we have a week or 2 to finalize our new scheme, we are leaning towards the newer schemes found on some of the ovations with the curved two color wave across the fuselage and two whisper lines on top. Blue on the Bottom and white on top with gold accents & 2 tone Reg numbers. Can anyone share there designs or point me towrds there pics.
  6. Got a nice pullover fleece with the Mooney logo & N number on it.
  7. I agree with you when it comes to scams....this is the time of year they ramp them up .......Most of the people on here know me and either email me directly or ask sometimes for products, I do not like to advertise on here because that is not what it is for, but around the Holidays I wanted the Mooney pilots to get the xtra $ off...The Deal of the day is for the GNS 5870 and the Dual xgps 150 is discounted in the cart... Mark
  8. Thanks Robert, The 2 external GPS units are the top sellers, everything else is big competition with spruce and sporty's..
  9. We had to change ours last year for the same reason, we bought new lenses from LASAR. They are fine in the air when being cooled but never on the ground. I put them on generally when there is more traffic in the area and at night. I am almost always on IFR flight plan but that does not mean there is not a VFR aircraft transitioning through your airspace.
  10. Quote: Mazerbase Mark, do you have some affiliation with this organization? What is the discount percentage? This feels like it is a bait and switch kind of thing.
  11. Code is working fine, no caps no quote marks...others have used it. I just checked it.
