hammdo Posted May 29, 2022 Report Posted May 29, 2022 Hope they remove the install restriction and lower the price some ;o) -Don Quote
Pinecone Posted May 29, 2022 Report Posted May 29, 2022 It doesn't look like they did. Still showing $10K, plus required install at Blue Sky for 55 - 60 hours Quote
M20F Posted May 29, 2022 Report Posted May 29, 2022 Hope it comes back, would hate to see another great Mooney STC disappear. Quote

Niko182 Posted May 29, 2022 Report Posted May 29, 2022 Based on the reviews on here about blue skies, i dont think it would be worth it. Quote
Igor_U Posted May 31, 2022 Report Posted May 31, 2022 So Does anyone know what is exactly is EMAPA? It seems they collect and sell (maybe?) parts and STCs for JPI, EI and others including LoPresti... including their Mooney cowl: https://www.emapa.aero/Mooney-Cowl-Kit-p/mooney-cowl-kit.htm They were bought by WAT some 3 years ago and wonder how accurate all this is? 1 Quote

Lopresti mods are part of the collection owned by WAT, aka the Whelen guys… We have a Whelen guy around here… @OSUAV8TER Best regards, -a- Quote

Only reason i think that is because if they were european, they wouldn't have blue skies be required to do the install since there are a couple guys in europentryong to get the monroy tanks. From what i heard, the owner of blue skies was buying the stc off jose, so id guess emapa is probably an onlime retailer of his, or has some affiliation with him. Just my guess. I might be wrong.

Ooops…. My bad… EMPOA is the European Mooney pilots…. at EMAPA: Engine Monitors And Performance Accessories, we are incredibly responsive to your requests and value your questions. Blue skys is a separate building from EMAPA…. According to their website and map…. They seem to be inviting a phone call to find out more details…. Best regards, -a- Quote
Bolter Posted June 1, 2022 Report Posted June 1, 2022 According to the ABOUT pages of EMAPA and BlueSkies, they are the same owner. Shaune Maycock. https://www.emapa.aero/aboutus.asp http://www.blueskiesaviation.aero/about-blue-skies -dan 1 Quote
OSUAV8TER Posted June 2, 2022 Report Posted June 2, 2022 @Igor_U I'm skeptical that they can get you that cowling kit but if you are really interested in it, I can find out if WAT is still manufacturing it. WAT is the merger between Lopresti and Whelen in 2019/2020. Quote
Igor_U Posted June 2, 2022 Report Posted June 2, 2022 @OSUAV8TER Not really interested to buy. I am skeptical as well and only reason for the post is as someone was saying about the cowl and not being available. From what I remember, Lopresti would not stock those even before the merger. I believe they would build to order as I remember David offering one on Likedin for a good price since someone canceled it... It's definitely a great mod, albeit expensive as gives quite a speed increase for M20F & E's, more so then M2J that has better cowl to start with. Regards, Quote
