  1. This is three yrs old. New it was $1695 plus $105 for the battery charger plus over $100 for the batteries, roughly $2000 with tax. Excellent condition. Works on nosewheel aircraft (works great on Mooneys) It's too heavy to be shipped. I am around San Antonio, based at KCVB. Excellent condition. http://www.aircraftspruce.com/catalog/pspages/heavyDutydragger.php?clickkey=44328 First $1000 buys it. SOLD lancecasper@me.com (210) 643-4161
  2. http://www.centuryinstruments.net/Price_List-July-2014/Price_List-July_2014.pdf Go to the 3rd page on the pdf and look under "Altitude Reporting Altimeters" $595 to Overhaul and Certify your encoding altimeter. $645 to exchange.
  3. I have progressive and I have photochromatic which darken in the sunlight - both of these work fine. The book for my Avidyne IFD540 says to avoid the use of polarized sunglasses. Most of the moving maps have a coating on the screen so this washes out the light I guess.
  4. I flew into an airport near League City TX (KSPX i think they called it - not there anymore) once about 14 years ago in a Piper Malibu Mirage. I was going to be there over the weekend and asked them to top it off. They called my cell phone an hours later to say that they were draining my tanks - that the new line guy had topped it off with Jet A. I'm glas they caught it. I am 99% sure I would have noticed it when I sumped the tanks during pre-flight. But ever since then I have been very diligent in making sure I wasn't misfueled.
  5. The guys at All American are top notch!!
  6. Mooney used a Eurostretch wool fabric on the headliners in those years and the adhesive stops holding eventually. On a 1997 Mooney Encore I had thoughts of re-gluing the same material, but that didn't not prove successful, so I ordered three yards of this: http://www.aircraftspruce.com/catalog/cspages/headlinerwool.php?clickkey=310688 I took the fiberglass headliner pieces and the fabric to a local upholstery shop and they did a great job. I replaced all of the eurostretch for $325 materials and labor. I now have a 2000 Ovation with the same issue. I'll eventually get around to doing the same.
  7. How about sending a picture of the dent?
  8. It's still on Controller: http://www.controller.com/listingsdetail/aircraft-for-sale/MOONEY-M20K-231/1979-MOONEY-M20K-231/1326523.htm
  9. I got 4 Teledyne Alphabeam normally $275 each through Spruce for $255 each on Black Friday. They would probably do the same anytime if you called them up.
  10. The most effective thing that VG's do is remove $1500-$2000 from your wallet which decreases your sink rate on short final.
  11. I had mine done in December 2014. It was $6750 to Bob Minnis for the STC. I took my prop governor along with $912 to Navajo accessories to rebuild it and replace with the upgraded spring. I have a JPI-EDM930 which needed to be reprogrammed instead of buying a new tach. There was a few hundred dollars to my A&P/IA to do this. I already had the prop also. I think it was a shade over $8000 total for the upgrade.

  13. I first went with the original Whelen Parmetheus and they were no brighter than the incandescent, just drew much less current. Since the airport that I used to base at had a lot of deer at night I sold the Whelens and bought the Teledyne Alphabeams - well worth the difference!
  14. I put Teledyne Alphabeam Taxi/Landing lights in my M20R and the brightness is amazing. In your case, the low current draw is also great for 14v airplanes. http://www.aircraftspruce.com/catalog/elpages/teledynelandinglight.php?clickkey=5657
  15. Brian Kendrick is another great option. He used to work at Mooney and still lives in Kerrville. He knows Mooneys inside out and does great work on these airplanes. He is mobile and can come to you or he also works independently out of San Marcos. His number is (830)370-1190. http://www.mooneysupport.net/2.html
  16. Don't ruin the beauty and function of that laminar flow wing with VG's. It will handle slow flight just fine with good instruction and practice.
  17. Looks like it is: http://www.controller.com/listingsdetail/aircraft-for-sale/MOONEY-M20K-231/1979-MOONEY-M20K-231/1326523.htm
  18. I admit I like all things Apple. I have an iPhone 6+, iPad Air, Macbook Pro, but I still like the Garmin 796/GDL 39 3D best for the cockpit. I mount it at the top of my compass post (RAM-B-231ZU) horizontally with a very short double socket (RAP-B-201U-A). It blocks nothing and just works all the time better than anything else. I still have my ipad with me but I have more confidence in the durability and stable interface of the 796. It's is made for the harsh environment of the cockpit.
  19. Heat in the winter, Shade in the summer
  20. I don't have a need for them at the moment. Sale pending (e-mail me offline if you are interested and if the sale doesn't go through I will let you know)
  21. This Bose A20 Bluetooth headset with Panel Power Lemo Plug was used on one flight. Still has all paperwork and aux cord sealed in the plastic bag. These are $1100 new, $895 +$15 shipping. Prefer paypal as a gift sent to lance99@aol.com. If that doesn't work for you let me know. Will send out immediately. PM me or e-mail me offline for any questions: lancecasper@me.com
  22. The AeroComfort one looks super nice when finished. They stitch it so that it has a very finished look.
