    Those prices match up with the brochure they gave me recently.

    If you live right in San Antonio Stinson airport is probably the closest and usually can find you hangar space. Talk to Jimmy Martinson at 210-5570798. If you don't mind driving west to Castroville the fuel is cheap and they have built new hangars which are about $330 per month. (830) 931-0224 Northwest of San Antonio is Boerne Stage Airport. Their hangars start at around $400 (830) 981-2345

    It's back to Dugosh again and David Behrens the longest employee co-owns it now and runs it. He just fixed a fuel leak for me. He is one of the most competent and honest people I know. I have used him for other things in years past when he was a mechanic working for Ronnie. He is the right guy for the job.

    You responded to a sidenote I mentioned, then I replied to your response.

    Whoever covered the console with ultra leather did a great job, while the color might not be your choice, it sure beats the old yellowed plastic. I think the wood overlay if it was all cleaned up would look great. Somebody put a lot of care and attention into this airplane at one time.

    The buyer had a laundry list of everything he wanted checked out that he had e-mailed to Don, so the avionics may have been part of that.

    If Autopilots Central can't find the microprocessor I doubt any of us can. Your best shot may be to see if you can find a used KC191 Computer for your KAP150 and make sure it has the mod that corresponds with the new microprocessor. KAP150.pdf On a side note I brought an airplane I was selling ('97 Mooney Encore) to Don Maxwell for a pre-buy for the prospective new owner. Don took the airplane up and flew it, testing all avionics, making that a part of his thorough pre-buy. Even though his pre-buy was not inexpensive it was complete and good insurance against getting an airplane with a lot of squawks. Avionics seem to be overlooked on a lot of the pre-buys and it can be frustrating to chase down the gremlins later.

    Keys or no keys, most older GA airplanes can be unlocked and started pretty easily. I remember hearing once that at one point one of ten keys would open and start any Cessna.

    For the 431/531 caps this still seems like the best deal around. https://www.beechtalk.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=44&t=130666

    Spruce buys them from Aviall, the Distributor for Lord. There is a cure date on them. But I've never bought them where the cure date was older than six months prior.

    I've never had that much hair.

    Piloto is in KFXE.

    Aircraft Spruce wants $113+ each, shipping included. Aviall is the only Distributor for these so everyone else buys from them. Sky Geek drop ships them from Aviall and their quantity pricing (4+) is $103.92 each, but you pay shipping.

    If you are an AOPA member you have access to VREF. You can do a search on AOPA's website.

    Do you have a picture of the ribbed belly pan?
  20. LANCECASPER
    Maybe for a few seconds, but not for very long.

    Take a bar of Ivory soap (not the liquid soap) and some warm water along with a washcloth and the light color leather should clean up nicely. Don't scrub hard, you don't need to. Don't use anything the "seals" the leather like an amorall or similar product. The best product I've ever found for keeping the leather soft and new after you've cleaned it is Hide Food. You buy it at the Jaguar dealer for Connolly Leather and it should be about $15 or you can get it online. It just restores the natural oils to the leather. Eurcerin (skin moisturizer) works well also.

    That's just the GPS displaying your present position - has nothing to do with traffic. As has been mentioned it sounds like the iPad is not paired with the 345. If the iPad is displaying ADS-B weather then the settings for traffic in Foreflight need to be changed.

    You're overthinking this. If it's used clean off whatever is there, put some double stick foam tape vertically on the full length of white part of the Kool Scoop, stick it on the window and forget about it. It's worked great on every Mooney I've had.

    You don't want the multiple section belly pan. A lot of extra work every time it comes off - even if you are doing the work, especially if you're paying to have it done. If you replace it you're going to have to paint it to match your airplane. People who work on Mooneys love the one piece belly. Let's say you gained one or two pounds of useful load by replacing it, that's less than 2 gallons of fuel. I gained 15 pounds of useful load this year - I stopped eating late in the evening.
