Hank Posted January 24, 2014 Report Posted January 24, 2014 I thought so, but apparently not on this phone. Let me look elsewhere. Quote
DrBill Posted January 24, 2014 Report Posted January 24, 2014 An HSI and autopilot go together, I know it's not necessary but the real ease of flying with HSI/Autopilot is just awesome. I never had one before this airplane and it took me a while to get used to it (about 10 -30 seconds !!). BILL 3 Quote

BILL It wasn't until I got an HSI that I knew I was working a lot harder than I needed to be... At least the ADF is gone...!! Quote
RangerJim Posted January 25, 2014 Report Posted January 25, 2014 Check out M20C N9237V at All American Aircraft in San Antonio. Straight down the line Mooney resellers and at least two MSCs within a reasonable radius for a pre buy that can be negotiated into a fresh annual. Get started right. Quote
rbridges Posted January 25, 2014 Report Posted January 25, 2014 Here's the first draft of the sorted list. It's subject to change and I'm posting here asking for comments and advice. The budget will be $50K. I'm interested in how far down the list or how many items on the list would fit into that budget. $50K will get you a pretty nice plane. GPSS to link the GPS to the AP would be icing on the cake. Everyone will also tell you to budget 20% of plane costs for incidentals over the next year. You hate to have a grounded plane b/c your budget dried up. Quote
DrBill Posted January 25, 2014 Report Posted January 25, 2014 Are all HSI's Slaved ? Mine is slaved to a sensor out in the wing. Are there HSIs that are not slaved and should be adjusted like a vacuum operated DG ? BILL Quote

It is still a great improvement over the DG, however. Quote

Aspen uses combination GPS - magnetic antenna combination. Sent using Tapatalk Quote
Bob_Belville Posted January 25, 2014 Report Posted January 25, 2014 My Aspen PFD includes the equivalent of a slaved DG and the old Narco 100 I removed was slaved with a toggle switch to turn slaving on/off. The flux detector (pic) was mounted out in the wing. Quote

Bob_Belville Posted January 25, 2014 Report Posted January 25, 2014 B 26, I don't have an airplane to look at the moment frown but to the antenna is similar to yours except on the center line and right in front of the dorsal fin. Sent from my XT1060 using Tapatalk Quote
