M20F

I have over 200hrs in a SR22 and it is without a doubt the hardest plane to hand fly that I have come across. I doubt I could pass an IPC in one flying by hand. If the auto trim went for sure I couldn’t.

It’s dangerous in front of the plane that is where the chopper/cutter thing is. It’s safer being behind the airplane.

Go blue, it will fix your problem. Water is annoying. When it freezes at the bottom of your tank, that’s when the real fun happens. @Gee Bee Aeroproducts to the rescue.

The GeeBee’s need to meet.

@GeeBee don’t you use your own rings? I have had zero issues since installing years ago. I suspect you have something else going on.

Me either I put out N496DE on my ADSB, not sure who is getting the bills.

TOO CLOSE FOR MISSILES, SWITCHING TO GUNS.

1967 F looking for a set

I like keeping mine closer to the fuselage personally. That extra ten degrees makes a lot of missions that would otherwise be scrubbed due to ice a reality. Poor mans TKS but it works great.

This all sounds pretty stressful. My suggestion is light up a Marlboro and then get back at looking for that leak. It could lead to a eureka moment.

Fill with oil Remove plugs Spin engine while somebody watches it gush out That type of loss should be easy to pin down.

There is a reason why you need 50hrs of PIC cross country for your instrument. As @201er points out pattern work is for getting a new pilot used to various phases of flight. It does build muscle memory and in the correct way (law of primacy). When you start doing cross country you learn how to apply the building blocks from the pattern work to solve new challenges. This is correlative learning. Show me wax on, wax off, paint the fence….

start: lda #$00 sta $1000 jmp start I like to think of it at “Killer” DOS lite. You are on the right path. It’s probably been a minute for all of us. I am working on getting @aviatoreb signed up first to do some hexadecimal calculus but I will put you on the list.

M20F I climb 120mph IAS at 2600. There is negligible difference in FPM but it’s a lot quieter.

I am writing a flight bag in a mix of 6502 assembler and LISP. I plan to launch a kick starter later this year.

IRAN on the top and bottom about 100hrs ago due to lifters/cam corroding (yes I use Camguard, yes I hate Lycoming metallurgy that isn't my question). I had this appear a bit early on in break in when I was will using Mineral Oil which I ran to about 30hrs. Then for the most part everything has been the same as it always had been for 15yrs and give or take 1500hrs. Yesterday flew KLZU to KDKX and was progressively losing oil pressure. CHT, EGT, etc. all the normal. The oil temp was a little hot and then a little cold in both pictures because it is a 45-60 min ride up to 8K with a slam dunk at the end due to mountains. You can see in the first picture the progressive loss and then an immediate 10 PSI jump, the flight back to KLZU (same day) is the second picture (I also flew KLZU-KDKX-KLZU today and had same 68-72'ish PSI result). I haven't seen anything sludgy or goofy in the oil, consumption is great, filters are clean, this is new oil with about 6hrs on it (so differing oil then the first time I saw this), etc. I am guessing some sludge coming apart somewhere? I open it to the peanut gallery.

Wouldn’t it make more sense just upgrade to a G1000NXi?

The only advantage I would see would be a Wyoming Dynasty trust and if you are looking at those you got the $$’s to talk to a professional.

Jose and his piss tube will always win.

Down to $65 for 50 gig up to 350 mph.

At what OAT?

I echo this, way too many variables.

Mooney’s came with a ram air system to bypass the filter. Engaging it bypassed the filter and added @1” of manifold. If you have a clogged or inefficient filter it is going to work opposite and take away manifold. It isn’t a magic way to go faster. It is just if your intake is not efficient then you will lose power. Cleaning that up gets you back to net zero, it isn’t a way to add knots per se. As for best altitude, it you ain’t 250 then you ain’t nothing.

G5 vs GI275 Personally I find the GI so small that all the stuff it does just clutters it. Plus I really don’t need anything other than an HSI and ADI. I don’t care for any of the other stuff (that’s me). G5 is solid and clean.

As of Wednesday it worked with mine.
