Andy95W Posted February 3, 2016 Report Posted February 3, 2016 My (former) 1967 M20C was also 100 on the ASI. Maybe it changed AT the introduction of the 1968? Quote
mooniac15u Posted February 3, 2016 Report Posted February 3, 2016 According to the TCDS the speed changed from 100 to 125 starting with S/N 690001 for the M20E which was the 1969 model year and S/N 680001 for the M20C which was the 1968 model year. Quote
Hank Posted February 3, 2016 Report Posted February 3, 2016 Yep. Looks like they did the good ones first. That explains a lot. 1 Quote
Andy95W Posted February 3, 2016 Report Posted February 3, 2016 Still wonder what prompted the change. We should've asked Bill Wheat. Quote

Sooooo, NOT "before '68 Model year" on the flap revision... Quote

Cabo Lee Posted March 9, 2016 Report Posted March 9, 2016 The aileron edge must be straight to use PC (not the flap). Quote
MyNameIsNobody Posted March 10, 2016 Author Report Posted March 10, 2016 Getting close... Flap I purchased to replace a functional but ever so slightly hanger rashed right flap...I pushed my plane back into hanger shortly after buying (winter/icy) and there were two vertical hanger supports if you went to deep you hit 'em...I did. Totally cosmetic, but found a replacement flap for $350 after watching for a decade on EBay. Sister visiting and after cousin picked up and took to her house sister put in van and delivered to hometown in Wisconsin via Arkansas...Picked up today (Fit in my Ford Fusion BARELY...Dropped off at A&P and opened up box. Flap looks good. Relief. Soon to have a rash free bird for the first time in my ownership. NICE. Quote

Completely different integrated main attach point. Good news is that I likely have a buyer for this very good condition right flap. Oh well... 1 Quote
