I heard from an aviation engineer that you can lean a carbed engine to lean of peak operation. Seems a gauge like this would help keep an eye on it. Plus all the other benefits.

I had a manual gear Mooney M20C because it was a great value and an economical aircraft.

Well the revived Garmin 250XL worked like a champ today on a round trip flight from KFDK home base to KSHD Shenandoah Valley Airport to help my daughter get settled into college at James Madison Univ. Good situational awareness with the panel mounted unit and an iPad for additional details. I...

Hi Chow_Chow, good info on the Jepp card and yes I did find the card from them and a card reader via local PoA member so I’m all set. Waypoints showed but flew 6,000 miles in 3 months without a satellite signal. Used a iPad/ForeFlight and portable ADSB device for navigation. Radio function works...

Thank you for the help and advice, @mandm and @JimCarpenter!
