Avionics Install PIREP

[moontownMooney]

So following up on a prior conversation (https://r.tapatalk.com/shareLink/topic?url=https://mooneyspace.com/topic/32819-panel-advice/&share_tid=32819&share_fid=55491&share_type=t&link_source=app) we finally have GPS and ADS-B compliance in our bird! Everything went very smoothly and we are quite happy with the result, though we havent been able to fly in it much yet. We ended up going to XP Services in Tullahoma, TN. They are in a partnership of some sort with Sarasota Avionics such that you purchase through Sarasota and get access to their inventory, prices, and zero sales tax but then the install labor is done at and paid through XP Services (Much closer for us in North alabama!). When we were shopping around for avionics shops and requesting quotes, most shops were terrible at responding in a reasonable timeframe. Frank at XP was excellent! From quoting through install he was clear, knowledgable, thorough, and communicated often. Their install rate was competitive and we are quite satisfied with the work. This is admittedly a relatively simple job as far as gps installs go, and Frank was able to work our job into their schedule within a month of us committing.

Like having an Easy Button...   

Moontown, you must have great financial control...

No extras crept into the project... A G5 or 275 or something that would be oh so cool...

Congrats!

Best regards,

Hah! Yeah, too many other things on the iWant list to get distracted with the G-candy. Next up is a left side panel re-org (not sure why mooneys were sold with a shotgun blast instead of an instrument panel). Then a right side panel re-org, pergaps including an EDM900. Then new interior... then new paint... Dang it, you got me a started!
