    Which route for project?

    Why would A&P2 want to do that much work for no charge? If he is that nice a guy I may have to call him about my Mooney! J

    Anyone Replace A Panel?

    Thanks for the reply Len. I don't believe mine is slanted. I looked at the newer displays, but it looks like none are STC'd for certificated aircraft. I have an Aerospace Logic digital oil temp/pressure guage, and I would love to get rid of my analog CHT/EGT guage. I called JPI and EI and...

    Apollo Panel, Any Thoughts?

    http://www.tropicaero.com/10Expand.asp?ProductCode=apollo_stack Anyone have any experience with this equipment? I believe most of it has been redone with the Garmin name. Is there any reason to stay away from Apollo? I want to get a GNS 430 or better, but this entire stack is only about 9K...

    Anyone Replace A Panel?

    Thanks for the info Len. What do you mean by slanted panel? My panel is flat from the left to the right. The 201 and later panel slants on the left and right sides toward the pilot, is that what you are referring to? I have another friend who is an A&P, and one of our Huey mechs at the AFB...

    Anyone Replace A Panel?

    Thanks for the replys. It sounds like this might be better to do during the annual since a lot of the plane will already be apart. I still have the two piece windshield, although I have acquired a 201 windshield. I don't know how much work it is to install that, although I hear it is not a...

    First Insturment Panel

    First panel was in the T-41 Mescalero. Next was the Cessna T-37 with a panel that I am sure they put together just to confuse students. Nothing like having to look down under the panel to change the radios. Jason

    Anyone Replace A Panel?

    I have a 1964 Mooney M-20E with the typical "Shotgun" panel arrangement. I have been thinking of upgrading the avionics and changing the layout of the instruments. LASAR has a left side panel they sell for only $250, with the holes cut however you wish. Then I would have to remove the...

    Price for 430 installed

    When I did a VRef for my airplane (64 Mooney M20E), they listed the 430 as a 5K add to the book value. Most shops I have talked to about doing a 430 estimate 11K for the install with the indicator. There is one shop on ebay that is advertising $8900 for the install with indicator, but as with...

    Most fuel efficient GA aircraft?

    Hello everyone, first post here. I am the new owner of a Mooney M20E, and I bought the airplane because of its' reputation for fuel efficiency and speed. I flew last Saturday, logging about a 1.8 block to block, with about half the flight at 60% power sight-seeing, and then the other half...
