I put an airtex kit in my 62C in 1999. Still looks great. May replace the carpet next year but the side panels and headliner don't need it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Looking for DAC GDC31 w annunciator
flyer7324 replied to INA201's topic in Avionics / Parts Classifieds

replace suction pump with second alternator
flyer7324 replied to flumag's topic in Modern Mooney Discussion
Get an Aspen and G5 and just eliminate the entire system. Don't need standby alternator because both have battery backups Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -
Observed corrosion on a candidate J model.
flyer7324 replied to EricJ's topic in Modern Mooney Discussion
The first pic shows a definite problem since the corrosion is clearly eating away at the spar. The second pic shows surface corrosion which can probably be scotchbrited off and treated. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -

Feeling Cheated... I think... GTN Series Questions
flyer7324 replied to Marauder's topic in Avionics/Panel Discussion
I get aural traffic alerts in addition to the visual traffic alert. Marauder I have another question for you. I have the Aspen pro 1000 and 650 but unlike you in ur videos I cannot any course reversal depiction on my Aspen. I sent the video of u to Aspen and they said there's a problem at Garmin's end with the way they changed how they "label" the data that the Aspen can't read. They haven't been able to reconcile how u get though. Any thoughts on that ? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk- 59 replies

You guys overthink everything. Just service whatever plugs you choose to use every fifty hours and you will get great service life. You do do that don't you? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

My advice. Re-torque the affected bolts and continue flying. Appears you have a good engine. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -
You can run the old stuff or the new. They both have their benefits and deficiencies. I ran steam for years and never had a failure in hard IMC or VFR. But when I got a great deal on the Aspen Pro I didn't hesitate. Now I'm not so enthusiastic about the new deal. But I want the G5 so I can eliminate my vacuum system. Oh BTW since I've had the Aspen I have hardly noticed the AI or compass. Not saying this is good or bad. But prior to the Aspen I was resetting the AU every 15 minutes.

New Member, Very Close to Buying C Model
flyer7324 replied to MBDiagMan's topic in Vintage Mooneys (pre-J models)
In my plane 80 mph on final works well with 75 over the fence. 75 on final is feels too mushy. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -
New Member, Very Close to Buying C Model
flyer7324 replied to MBDiagMan's topic in Vintage Mooneys (pre-J models)
90 knots is way too fast for a C F or J. 80mph on final is optimum. And it's easy to slow down. 2300 rpm and 18-17 inches will get you to gear speed. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -
I need fuel bladders ??? Help !!!!
flyer7324 replied to flyhigh603's topic in Vintage Mooneys (pre-J models)
I had the 54.8 gallon bladders installed in my C in 1999-2000 as I recall. Price was about 5500.00 complete. Have had no problems other that a leak around the sump drains that was repaired by the O and N at no cost to me. In July of 2016 I had Griggs install the additional 10 gallons. Now that was expensive about 4700.00 but I had a need for the additional capacity so I went for it. They're good guys and very competent. The installation was flawless but it's not cheap. -
Question about STEC and ASPEN interaction
flyer7324 replied to Oscar Avalle's topic in Avionics/Panel Discussion
Speaking of "want to haves" as opposed to "need to haves" I ordered the enablement to allow the 345 to display FIS and TIS-B on the Aspen. There's a 300 dollar discount being offered on the unlock by Aspen currently. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -

Conversion to Sloped Windshield?
flyer7324 replied to prflyer's topic in Vintage Mooneys (pre-J models)
I had the one piece windshield installed complete for 980.00. Very hard to justify the price delta of 6-7 thousand for the 201 windshield. Based on what I've learned over the years the speed gain is barely perceptible. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
