  1. Any one has experience with the AC tugs? https://www.acairtechnology.com/products.aspx?cat=tugs&ModelID=3 Thank You
  2. Cheese, these are a begging o a solution... Neilpilot, you are talking about a Mooney Savvy mechanic. What is this. For me Savvy is Savvy. Is there 2 organisations?
  3. There is an Ovation for sale, a 2000 that I made an offer. The hic is that the airplane is a repossess and did not fly for the last 3 years. The seller don't want to pay to have it in a flying condition. This means that I have to do the prebuy at his home airport with someone that is not a Mooney Service Center. Savvy did not realy look at it but is very negative and does not offer any trace of solutions. I think I offered a price below the market value an Ovation in a normal flying condition. What do you think?
  4. Longview is not far by plane but 20 hours + if by car?
  5. Anyone can tell me the approx cost for tanks resealed for an Ovation? Some say that the tank are 89 gallons. Others says that all 89 gallons are 102 gallons if filled to the top. Is this right. Also, anyone know a good Mooney Center Near Conroe, Texas (KCXO) Thank You
  6. Actualy, I am impress by the speed but 2 things: - I prefer staying away from homebuilt to fly IFR. - Useful load has a minimum to me that the Questair does not have.
  7. This is exactly what I was looking for. Thank You.
  8. Hello... Most Mooniac are attracted by speed and efficencies. And Mooney for speed, efficency and load with sexy look is hard to get better if possible. But... I went for a ride with a friend in his Questair Venture and whow!!! 230 knots true at 8000 feet and 12 g per hour.. Would you trust the design enough to buy a Questair Venture?
  9. Anyone knows the weight of an air conditioning system on an ovation. Also is it removable the gain weight? Thanks
  10. Done, thank you. (I did not see this request previously; may be many more did not see it either. I don't care that much about advertisment if it can continue improve the site. And may be ... Having more power on certain instance (a voice) with some problem related to the Mooney owners like the "waas stc of stec/g1000").
  11. Whow, 1130 lb. Wonder if some with TKS come on the market sometime...
  12. Hi jeff, I used to have a 201, no tks. With 64 gallons of fuel, I had plenty of usefull load for luggage. With a future Ovation with TKS, I am looking at 150 lb of luggage (life raft, 2 bikes, camping stuff, etc) me and a passenger plus fuel and ... speed.
  13. I am a bit concern about usefull load. Some says that if I want more usefull load buy a Cirrus of a Bonanza. Here are my calculation Ovation vs Cirrus Cirrus SR22, Year 2005 with TKS, no air Usefull load year 2005: + 1060 lb Ramp weight: + 12 lb Fuel 81 gallons: - 486 lb Pilot and passenger - 325 lb TKS: - 50 lb Remaining: 206 lb Ovation 2, Year with TKS fiki, no air Usefull load: 974 lb Ramp weight: + 12 lb Fuel 81 gallons: - 486 lb (to compare with Cirrus) Pilot and passenger - 325 lb TKS: - 50 lb Difference in speed: 25 lb (approx. 10 kts faster) Remaining: 145 lb Difference: 61 lb Am I missing something?
  14. Anyone knows if there is a resale value for removed air conditioning from an ovation 2005?
