I'll check out the S-21. Haven't looked at that yet. To be clear, I am NOT building a plane. Anything I buy has to be already built.

That does help. Thanks! I was hoping for a bit faster cruise, but thanks for the honesty. How are the annuals?

I looked at them, but I think they'd be too slow and most seem to be built with questionable engines IMO. I'd really like to stick with time tested and proven aircraft engines. Lycoming, Continental, or Rotax.

I have owned my '66 Mooney M20F for over 10 years now and I'm seriously considering something else. These are the reasons compelling me- I never needed four seats and honestly I don't really need two seats. Even though it is in good shape and has modernized avionics, the Mooney is pretty old...

Compliance with regulations is actually quite good. The mandates on stores, restaurants and public buildings isn't too bad. Some companies definitely take it more serious than others. Masks are being worn probably 95-97% of the time indoors. Six feet separation indoors, maybe 70%. Where it all...

Late to the thread. Didn't read all the usual arguing. Just answering the original question. My brother in-law and his whole family had it. He was pretty sick, my sister in-law was really sick and the kids pretty mild. This was back in March. They all recovered, but both the adults now complain...

This one is for sale and it's intriguing, but I know nothing about them. https://www.barnstormers.com/classified-1572552-2002-KIS-TR-1-composite.html

Earlier Mooney electric gear have 20:1 ratios in the actuators. The gear comes down pretty fast. Probably the fastest of any GA electric gear. Later they went to a 40:1 ratio in the gear actuator to improve their life span and reduce maintenance. This brings the cycle much closer in speed to...

I don't think anybody is worried about the feds and getting busted. They worry about insurance coverage should something happen. At least I do.

Well, today's June 30th. Does anyone know if the SFAR got extended?

You'll put your eye out!

Yippee Ki-yay Mother#*@$er!

Incontinentia... Buttocks.

You're young and got you're health, what would you want with a job??!

I think he was talking about installing the new cups, not removing them.

I like this idea!!

I did read their manual. Seems overly complex like a science experiment or something. That's why I'm wondering about real world experience.

Has anyone changed their wheel bearing cups? One of my nose wheel bearing cups appears to have a crack in it. It needs to be changed. I have Cleveland wheels.

It's been tough over at Byron. Somebody got medivaced out by helicopter from the skydiving operation on Friday. That tow plane lived in my hangar row. I used to pass by and wave at that guy on my way to the bathroom. I spoke to him once about getting tailwheel instruction. Seemed like a nice guy...

So, they never sent an email as they said they would, but they did mail me a new invoice/statement that showed they credited me the $10 and I now owe nothing. All is well, but still kind of annoying as obviously this happens a lot. I really hope somebody out there isn't spoofing my N-number on...
