I have a wingtip beacon on a cessna 150m made by the same company and so far it works good. Can’t beat the price for a adsb out unit. You can still use your old transponder. My other planes have Stratus esg transponders. I like them too but they are more costly. — Darrell

Keep your wings level and fly right. Maintain thy airspeed.

Hello, my Cessna 150 just started having strong audio whine. It went right through my a&r headset. I suspect the alternator probably diode problem.

Lots of good information. I've had a rough running engine and surges after hot starts in my Mooney. I think I'll try running the boost pump next time it happens and see if it helps. One issue I had years ago concerning take off and then the engine running rough was caused by some material...

Good question about Mooney versus a Debonair. I own a Mooney and a 65 Debonair and I like them both. The Mooney is more sporty and sits lower. To me the Debonair is more forgiving on landing approaches and speeds. My Mooney wants the speed just right or it will float down the runway. The...
