Windshield cleaning....

Nice setup!
-
Useful weight, parachute would give piece of mind to new buyers (ie Cirrus). Electronic ignition would be great. Modern interior design and ergonomic panel... The end the interior of a 600 k+ airplane should look more like the interior of high end BMW (lights, climate control, comfortable leather seats), than that of a cheap VW.

Mine are also angled.

Bladder Tank 10 Gallon Add-On
Oscar Avalle replied to flyer7324's topic in Vintage Mooneys (pre-J models)
Well to add to the debate. I have the bladders since I bought the plane in 2002 and added the additional 10 Gal in 2014. I love the feeling that I have that additional hour available. This allows me to fly non stop St Louis to KGAi... 4.45 hours... without getting too nervous about fuel. Now, do i always fuel up the plane with the 64 gal? No, I try to keep around 50 gallons in the tank unless I have to do a long cross country, like Boston or St Louis. Oscar -
GARMIN 396 WITH XM - SOLD
Oscar Avalle replied to LANCECASPER's topic in Avionics / Parts Classifieds
Did you sell it? -
Interesting points about the cracks. I raised it when I bought the cowling and I was told that they had changed the installation procedure to address the issue... Let's see how it goes. Oscar

I am also looking at the G5 to get rid of the my AT and the stand by system. May be a way around this is that the G5 is the primary... and the ASPENs the back up... Oscar

II installed an ARI Cowling mod (There was a discussion in Feb 2010 on this subject). https://aeroresourcesinc.com/proj98-ci/WebContent/product_category/view/9 I like it, the quality of the mod is good, the manufacturer is extremely responsive and it is easy to install. Now, in terms of speed gains, I have not tested and time everything out, but given that the CHTs are more manageable I can push the engine harder... Oscar

Rocker Switch Cover Replacements - 3D Print your own
Oscar Avalle replied to freff's topic in Modern Mooney Discussion
I ordered some too. But how do you get the text on them? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -
one additional question: What does it take to change from a three blade to a two blade?
-
it seems that I will need to get a new prop... So I am looking for a replacement for my three blade McCauley. Any suggestions, ideas? Considering what it may cost me.. I would like to get something efficient and effective... (are those the right words???)...Changing from three to two blades will be most likely expensive? So let's open a discussion... I am all ears!

Will do!

Let me get to the airport this week and take a pic. I use a contour camera. http://contour.com/ their form makes it make easier to attach them to the fuselage of the plane. However, their battery life is rather short (1,5 hours). For the interior, wing and belly I use the Garmin VIRBs. They are rugged and have a good battery life (2 to 3 hours). For editing I use Final Cut.

Easily, that's why I have my back ups ! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I caught a cold from my 6 year old.. thus I had to stay at home for the last three days. Not much to do about it. So I decided to edit some of the footage from some flights I made during the last two months. So here goes another one (longer than usual) but the scenery was so nice that I could not cut it... hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed my early morning flight out of St Louis.

Before I installed my 650 I used the 430 for traffic and the 796 for navigation.
-
Yeah... not happy camper on that subject.
-
Don't touch that subject please! The short answer is yes.
-
Well my new videos are not as exotic as they were before, but the scenery is still nice.

Anybody install an angle of attack indicator?

I installed an AOA Alpha System. I use it and I really like it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -
I used a grass strip for the last four years. As long as you used the proper technique it was just fine. Our gear is rugged and takes a lot, as long as the strip is relatively smooth. Actually some of my nicest landing were on a grass strip.
