Any good (CB) solutions to jacking gear to replace tires? There has to be a simpler, cheaper way to do it than AC jacks. There is an L-shaped bracket for Piper gear that allows a small hydro jack to work, anything like that in the Mooneyspace?

Anyone know if this adapter is required in order to use Bose headset using ship power with an oxygen mask+mic? Or can I just plug the oxygen mask's mic into the standard mic jack while the headset is on the lemo jack? In other words, which mic takes priority when a mic is plugged into both jacks? http://www.pilot-usa.com/adapters/bose-adapters/pa-100b.html

This is getting frustrating. Scrubbed a flight last weekend because the aircraft failed a mag check. Managed to use lots of power and lean mixture to chase that out Tuesday night. Getting ready for a nice trip for the fourth of July weekend and I find a flat tire (right main). Can't just inflate it, its leaking badly out the valve stem. So its just a flat. I should be able to get the field mechanic to put on a new tire, right? Field mechanic says he hasn't the correct jack pads for a Mooney. So far I'm on my own. Now I get to ask questions. What the devil is he talking about? I see this at Aircraft Spruce, is that what he's on about? Can't raise him on the phone (another issue) soI get to ask you guys. If so it doesn't seem like a huge deal. Last time I had to jack up an airplane the mechanic had jacks and we just did it, so I'm a little in the dark on this one. Of course, I'd rather just buy jack stands and do this myself but the things are bloody expensive!
