Have been looking at a lot of Mooney photos. Some pretty nice planes out there. My paint is solid, but looking for a different look. Quote

No wonder the whole thing isn’t even worth $25,000! Expand I think you missed a gizmo, and completely left out installation charges in that guesstimate. And no, "everyone" doesn't navigate with an ipad, or even a tablet. I use that fancy, overpriced Garmin WAAS box mounted in my panel, not a cheap, short-lived piece of consumer-grade electronic garbage with untested, unapproved software. My tablet isn't named after a fruit, and is sometimes inside my suitcase way in the back of the plane during flight (or in the seat of my truck . . . .), and that doesn't bother me in the least. No, I don't mind calling a spade a spade, either. Quote

Physically I have only completed the cabin and baggage doors, but I have made a lot of design decisions that took me a while to nail down. I’m doing a mix of Aero Comfort and Airtex and am modding in the nosewheel well cover and hat rack bow from ‘66 and later models that I prefer to the ‘65 treatments. The annual on the C ran out today, though, so the interior project is going to have to go on hold for a while. On that front so far I know I am replacing the landing gear down lock block and nose gear steering horn with LASAR parts and who knows what else. I haven’t taken the plane apart yet for inspection. I had my J dialed in pretty well but with the C I am having to reaccomlish a lot of same tasks. The advantage, though, is that the C is basically new firewall forward whereas my J was a runout. Good times! Jim Expand Hey, a passenger ashtray! I only had one on my side, and now there's an ashlight there, 4 little red LEDs powered by one AAA battery. Quote

M20Curious Posted April 2, 2021 Report Posted April 2, 2021 (edited) Is there insider information on this plane someone new to the forum and looking for a Mooney should know? Are those pics of the current owner? This thread is very confusing. Feeling ‘left out’ of the jokes. Edited April 2, 2021 by M20Curious Quote
