  1. You can fight and try to get it covered by someone else while your airplane sits there many more months or you can just accept it as a cost of flying a nice airplane and take charge and get it done. Those six digit part numbers are all Continental parts. They should be able to be ordered from any Continental distributor, such as https://www.airpowerinc.com/ or https://www.aircraftspruce.com/. Whether they are in stock or backordered is another challenge.
  2. On this link the Table of Contents only goes to 24-50-05 Edit: It looks like 34-50-08 applies
  3. Thank you for all of the effort you put into this. There is no page D37 in the GTX345R install manual. Page D27 maybe?
  4. The post you’re quoting was from almost nine years ago.
  5. I agree 100% - Robert at Aero Accessories did one of my mags in an M20M I owned along with both alternators while the airplane was down for the Bravo conversion back in 2018. Excellent work completed on time. I have since sent him other accessories. Completely satisfied with his work.
  6. The present owner hasn't exactly been enjoyable to deal with - but this post may help you look for things on the pre-buy.
  7. The other factor is that if you have an autopilot, you don't want any of these products on your servos. So make sure whoever does it is aware of how to protect them.
  8. Great chance to own a beautiful upscale Texas Hill Country Hangar-minium on an east-facing 4 acre mid-field Airpark lot. If your passion is aviation, dark skies, enjoying nature, wildflowers or just privacy - this one works well as a full time residence or could serve as a weekend getaway or an amazing winter migration destination for aviating snowbirds. The current owners spent 5 months of their year here and the remainder in Alaska - the absolute best of both worlds, living the dream! A lighted 3800 foot runway, 80 feet wide, is the centerpiece of this exclusive Hill Country Gated Community, located between Fredericksburg, Kerrville and Harper. Your 70 x 50 hangar has 2070 square feet of air-conditioned and heated living area in a two story floor plan. The Master suite is downstairs along with the kitchen/living area. Upstairs there is a full bath with two oversized guest rooms separated by a living area/media room. This floor plan leaves 2500 s.f. of hangar space for all of your vehicles, endless toys and projects. The 4 post vehicle lift is negotiable, as well as refrigerators, wine fridge, tv and washer/dryer. The hangar door is 42' wide by 13' high to accommodate your airplane. You have direct taxiway access from your property. The high quality living space could also be used as your residence while building another home on the 4 acres and then later used for guests once your home is finished - endless possibilities, only limited by your imagination! The neighborhood has a water system and the property has an onsite aerobic septic system. However a recent 20,000 gallon Rainwater system cares for all of the present owner's water needs. Recent $60,000 installation of 8.265 kw Solar panels with two 7 kw Tesla storage batteries cuts power bills to a minimum and allows you to sell back to the grid. There are no vacant lots for sale in this community - grab this one while it's available! You couldn't come close to duplicating this one for the asking price! Sensible deed restrictions and cooperative owners in this community protect your investment but give you flexibility. The yearly mandatory HOA is $1150 for neighborhood amenities including runway maintenance. $699,500. Price reduce to $619,950. MOTIVATED SELLER.

  9. Look at page 3-5 for the GDL39: https://static.garmin.com/pumac/190-11110-00_0H_Web.pdf Look at page 8 for the GDL-5X: https://static.garmin.com/pumac/190-02087-02_B.pdf The wiring is compatible. Your 696 won't see any difference in the serial data from your GDL39 or a GDL50.
  10. The GDL39 cable is compatible with the GDL50, 51 & 52.
  11. Great chance to own a Texas Hill Country Hangar-minium on an 3.6 acre Airpark lot. If your passion is aviation, dark skies, enjoying nature, wildflowers or just privacy - this one could be a full time residence, a weekend getaway or an amazing migration destination for aviating snowbirds. A lighted 3800 foot runway, 80 feet wide, is the centerpiece of this exclusive Hill Country Gated Community, located between Fredericksburg, Kerrville and Harper. Your 69 x 50 hangar has 950 square feet of air-conditioned and heated living area within the huge 3450 s.f. hangar, located at the SW corner of Aviation Loop. The hangar door is 40'4" wide by 12'6" high to accommodate your airplane on to the epoxy floor. You have direct taxiway access from your property. One dedicated bedroom and two other multi-purpose rooms that are currently set up with beds work well when the family gets together on weekends. This could also be used as your residence while building a larger home on the 3.6 acres and then later used as a guest cottage once your home is completed. There are no lots for sale in this community - grab this one while it's available! It offers endless possibilities, limited only by your imagination. Sensible deed restrictions and cooperative owners in this community protect your investment but give you flexibility. The yearly mandatory HOA is $1150 for neighborhood amenities including runway maintenance. This was used for a vacation residence for the past 20 years by aviation enthusiasts. They were the originals owners. The kitchen was in the process of a mini-remodel before he could finish it. All $10,000 in new stainless appliances are included and installed. The new owners can decide on finishing touches. more pictures:https://www.homes.com/property/1335-aviation-loop-fredericksburg-tx/1x2h4v8ccmtct/
  12. If you want to get rid of the ads, become a supporter.
  13. I would take a lot of pictures and depending on where it is, check with BAS to see what they would give you for it. https://baspartsales.com/sell-your-airplane-to-bas-part-sales/ Consider whatever you get as a gift and put it toward a Mooney that's been flying.
  14. I'm sure that Maxwell's shop is learning, but the question is still, "Do you want someone who has done 10 or 20 of these jobs, or someone that has done well into the thousands of tanks?" You can be sure you will be happy with Paul Beck's work at Weep No More. . In 10-15 years when Maxwell has done as many as Paul or Edison I would consider them
  15. If you're going to do a complete strip and reseal and keep the airplane, get on the list and have Paul Beck at Weep No More or Edison at WetWingologists do it. Those two do them every week and they aren't learning on your airplane. They are each a Mooney flight away.
  16. SOLD Articulating front seats can make the difference between being comfortable and not. They adjust height and seat back angle. These are in excellent condition. Just recently cleaned and lubricated. They came off of a late model J and upholstered in gray leather seating surfaces/vinyl trim in really good shape. (I found Toyota headrests that fit.) Just one bottom metal frame (no cushions) from Mooney fifteen years ago was over $3000, and are now over $5000 backordered. On these, if you wanted one bottom frame section without any cushions it would be $1500; a complete seat back and bottom without any cushions it would be $1600; a complete seat back and bottom with gray leather cushions it would be $1800. Two complete with cushions would be $3300. Local pickup or shipping at cost (example: a recent check to ship both complete seats from TX to CA to a commercial address was $130) Payment by Venmo or Zelle.
  17. You have the Acclaim that used to be owned by Jonny Pollack, CEO of Mooney. I would make sure that the shop you're using really knows how to diagnose autopilot issues, and isn't just throwing parts at it. The likelihood that all of those servos plus the magnetometer have really failed is a very low percentage.
  18. A little trivia on Silver Wings and the runway here . . . Before I made my decision to buy here at Silver Wings over eight years ago I had looked at other air parks. It didn't take long to realize that I was never going to find one with a runway like this. It was built to Dept. of Defense specs and easily able to accommodate a C130, which was their criteria. Legend has it that around 1990 the DOD approached a local ranch owner (Friedrich) and told him that they wanted to lease XXX number of acres for him for $$$$$$/year. He wouldn't be told what they were using the land for, there would be high fences installed, but any and all improvements would be his at the end of the lease. He looked at the amount and it didn't take but a moment for him to agree when he compared that to trying to run cattle on the land. The CIA and Air Force used it to test drones and once the project was complete he found out that he now owned a large hangar, a couple of homes and an amazing 3800' x 80' runway built up on a excavated base that must have cost millions. Over the next few years he created the neighborhood and sold lots. The inside lots, one of which I own, facing the runway are each 4 acres. The perimeter lots are very special, 50+ acres, ag exemption, ranch living, yet you are a minute or two from your hangar and the runway, that no air park developer could have ever afforded to build to those same specs. (The home for sale mentioned here is lot 28 and their hangar is on Hangar Row XX. I'm at midfield on lot 19)
  19. This is the Air Park I live on and I'm helping to sell my neighbor's place. Incredible opportunity to own a Texas Hill Country Ranch on an Airpark. Whether your passion is aviation, dark skies, enjoying nature, wildflowers, raising animals or just privacy - this one is worthy of your consideration. A lighted 3800 foot runway, 80 feet wide, is the centerpiece of this exclusive Hill Country Gated Community, located between Fredericksburg, Kerrville and Harper. Your 60 x 60 hangar on Hangar Row will store your airplane, RV, boat, etc. while providing extra space for guests in the 400 square foot heated and cooled quarters, which includes a bathroom with shower, kitchen and bedroom. Your 56.148 acres are located on the NE corner of the Aviation Loop perimeter and will provide you with privacy and endless possibilities. The total square footage of heated and cooled areas is 2885 s.f., which includes the 621 s.f. pottery studio located in two stalls of the four stall oversized garage. Hill Country Native stone home with metal roof has beautiful scenic views in every direction. The split floor plan has a master suite and two additional bedrooms separated by a Great Room with open Kitchen and Dining. The over-sized 1242 s.f. four stall garage offers many possibilities. The paved driveway will allow you to keep your vehicles clean. The neighborhood has a water system and the property has an onsite aerobic septic system. However a recent 20,000 gallon Rainwater system cares for all of the present owner's water needs. A 192 s.f. well-built, insulated greenhouse is another recent upgrade. Sensible deed restrictions and cooperative owners in this community protect your investment but give you flexibility. And don't forget about the tax advantages of the ag exemption. The yearly mandatory HOA is $1200 for neighborhood amenities including runway maintenance. $1,899,950 Motivated Seller has reduced price to $1,749,950. https://silverwingsflyinranch.com/ https://www.airnav.com/airport/TS36 More pictures: https://www.homes.com/property/2154-aviation-loop-fredericksburg-tx/0nlflm5rvwk51/
  20. This is why you go to Edison or Paul to get your tanks done. Period. Sure, anyone could figure it out and do it - but these guys do it every week. They aren't learning on your airplane.
  21. Paging @Jake@BevanAviation, the expert on this subject.
  22. Since you're learning about your Mooney, I thought I'd throw this in there: Resist the urge to remove your hydraulic reservoir to clean it up or paint it to improve the appearance. One of the most frequent posts on Mooneyspace is when newer owners do any kind of brake work and get air in the lines and fight trying to remedy the soft brakes. I t doesn't mean that your brakes shouldn't be bled by someone that really knows Mooney brakes to get rid of the dark gelled nasty brake fluid that's likely in the system But let someone that has years of experience deal with that.
  23. @AH-1 Cobra Pilot has switch covers for a couple of the different brands used, with the printing on the switch covers. He may respond to this or you can Private Message him.
