July Issue of The Mooney Flyer

[mooneyflyer]

Attached, please find your July Issue of the Mooney Flyer, your official Mooniacs eNewsletter.  This month, we have articles on Everything You wanted to know about ADSB, An Engine Failure over the Nevada Desert in an M20J told in the first person by both the pilot and his passenger (two different perspectives), A Possible Future of Mooney by Bob Kromer, Rigging your Mooney by LASAR's Paul Loewen, and a new column marked Ask the Top Gun, by Top Gun Aviation founder Tom Rouch.  We also review the Garmin Aera 796 and have a lighthearted feature called What would Steve Canyon say.  This is a little parody on bad radio technique that we hope you find enjoyable, as well as upcoming Mooney fly-ins in the western USA.

Great work, Phil!  Thanks for putting this together.

Can we submit questions here?  If so, as a follow-on to the rigging article, I'd like to know how often the expert shops see twisted control surfaces (ailerons and flaps), and what they do to rectify the problems.  Can flaps be reskinned, or de-riveted and aligned, and then re-riveted with oversized rivets?

You still have some time to take the Mooney Factory refurbishment poll, posted in this month's Mooney Flyer.  More than 200 Mooney owners have already weighed in.  You can read the article in the July Issue of the Mooney Flyer to get the background from Bob Kromer.

Maybe ask Tom to detail the work, parts and expense involved in putting a 201 cowl on a vintage plane. I know his son Mark, has a '69 F that is pretty much 201 now and has done it. In this new age of more and more limited cowling options for vintage planes, there may be more people interested in this idea.
