healthfx Posted December 3, 2012 Report Posted December 3, 2012 See the before and after pics at http://www.mooneyland.com/pilot-articles/ That “slap-in-the face” waiting at the end of the runway always seemed to be staring at me for too long…But, I thought it was normal. Looking deeper, my mechanics found the problem in my brakes. Old hydraulic fluid. It had oxidized and expanded, causing the pads to close ever so slightly and restrict movement. They added new fluid. Now, I takeoff like I stole it! Quote
