  1. I like the looks of the prop. At the projected $25k it would need to increase efficiency to make it worth while unless your current props is trashed and you need a new one. If it reduces noise then that power that was producing noise needs to go somewhere maybe speed or more effectively turning torque into thrust. Also thee is 2,400 hour or 6 years TBO is that a hard line or is it a recommendation?. Not sure if that applies to part 91 or not. Different medium but I do remember many years ago when stainless props were becoming popular on boats. The thinner blades allowed for less resistance in the water to the rotation of the prop and you could go with higher pitch and get better performance. From the article. Key features of the Outlaw propeller include: Blended airfoil carbon fiber composite blades 2400-hour / 6-year TBO Replaces Hartzell 2- and 3-blade metal props and McCauley 2-blade props The lightest Hartzell option available for Mooney M20 aircraft
  2. now count how many times your as 202 instead of 201
  3. I ordered a whole bag of these from McMaster Carr a few years ago.
  4. I suspect Mooney did this on the ground some how. Maybe they jumped the gear position switch. Short of that start the plane on the ramp set throttle 12 to 13"MP and lock in place shutdown the engine. Move plane into hangar, place on jacks, retract the gear and adjust throttle position SW until the horn comes on. Cycle the gear couple of times to verify.
  5. Thanks most of the wear is typically on the link. The bushings usually don't wear too much. I'll let you know if I need them. I haven't taken the nose gear off yet.
  6. is a nose gear retract link available with out without other noes gear parts?
  7. I'm looking a nose retract link Part # 530068-001 or 530003-7 (old number) I have one ordered though LASAR but it's a few months out. Also they do not have ANY bushings available due to renewing their PMA.
  8. I have some seats out of a 65E Model. PM me if you interested.
  9. When adding power for take off my IO360A1A has developed a stumble. This is as going from idle to full throttle and happens around 2200rpm but clears up as the engine gets to 2500 with or without the boost pump. During the engine run up there no issues. I have cleaned the injectors, intake screen on the fuel servo and the collator is clean. All intake tubes seem to be good. It sounds almost like it's lacking fuel during that throttle phase similar to advancing the throttle when leaned on the ground. Any ideas?
  10. Replaced the battery in mine and now I can't get it to turn off. I guess I will either buy a new one or send it in to be calibrated, needs it anyway.
  11. When I shutdown for fuel like that I set the throttle 1200 to 1300 rpm then shut down. Hopefully with the nose facing into the wind. Also as I'm in the pattern I open the cowl flaps too get little extra cooling before shutdown. After fueling or other activities and ready for the hot start I don't touch anything turn on the boost pump and turn the key to start. Usually works good for me.
  12. People need to lean to keep their mouth shut.
  13. Not sure if anyone from FL wants to move their plane as far west as New Orleans but we can provide space at LS40 just south of New Orleans International, KMSY. It's a grass strip and you would tied down outside but well away from the effects of Helene. I affectionately call it the trailer park of airports but it's home and doesn't cost much to be there. PM me if you are interested. I can rearrange some things and get one plane under a hangar roof.
