After flying 1 soul on board for 300 out of 400hrs flight time in my father's 1966 M20 (when I was a kid), I now fly the single place M18 with no regrets. The reduced annual flying costs permit me to rent any twin most anytime I want and still come out money ahead. By the way, I have 2 spare M18 wig-wags if you want to install one (plus one for co-pilot) in your M20. My upgraded M-18 uses a gear indicator light (just like your M20). The wig-wag was introduced after Al Mooney did a gear up landing in an M18. Some older small aircraft engines lacked electrical systems, so the adapted automotive windshield wiper operates off of crankcase pressure. When you reduce power, it "wags" quicker just like the old automobile vacuum windshield wipers. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carusoam Posted January 19, 2019 Author Report Share Posted January 19, 2019 Kevin, The Best way to share a video around MS... Drop it into YouTube, then share the link... Not sure if this is a Steve Jobs video restriction from way back or not, but YouTube has figured out a nice way to share videos across all machines...
