    Thanx for the video, Amigo. I Love the choices you made ... she looks Great! I recently retired after 47 years as a professional aviator. Now I have time to restore/upgrade my 1971 M-4-220 Maule. Your information was/is very helpful to me. I Very Much appreciate the thought and time you invested in presenting this. Count me 'in' for a "Flying Dirty" T-shirt. Fly it like you STOL it! ;-) ... Skal, Hawk ^v^

Maybe in a year or so when Im getting close to 1500 and needing to get in those last hours for ATP would I look more seriously at buying. Granted found a fantastic Lance that had just about everything save for a 3 blade prop, its just trying to justify the $150K price tag is a little much right now.

    Great information Raul. Again, i enjoy your videos very much. You do a great job of detailing your flights. I wrote earlier about the avionics upgrade. Right now my Cherokee is getting a new interior installed, so once i get Judy Cherokee back, i will think about the avionics. As much as i would love to have the Dynon system, i will most likely have to go an alternative method until the time i can fund the big upgrade. I am thinking about two uavionix av-30s for the time being. These will provide round gauge EFIS and will eliminate the vacuum pump. Keep up the good work!

    Thanks again Bill, you and about three others was the reason for this video. It makes me feel really good that you all have been incredibly supporting. Where did you decide to get your interior? And trust me, I feel the pain! I wanted to get new avionics since around 2014 but I kept pushing it back. I'm glad I did because competition made everything more manageable with pricing and options. Such as options like what you are considering (uavionix av-30,s). Those are pretty sleek. I like flying IFR and that vacuum pump was a major concern for me. Take care my great friend and I always appreciate your interaction!

    It's really hard to beat the price and quality of the Dynon products. I was watching the youtube channel "Glen's hangar" where he restored a 1961 Cessna 172 and replaced the old sixpack gauges with Dynon products and it looked to be a pretty straight forward install with great customer support.

    I have done a lot of research on many products, including gps units, and Garmin is way overrated. It does not mount up in user experience and customization. The Dynon and IFD gps units going totally hybrid as opposed to 100% touchscreen is jut one example of how some of these other companies care about the customer experience. Garmin only seems to care about ripping people off 😀. I really don’t get how folks have been so brainwashed by them. On the other hand, compatibility goes to Garmin but they are trying to do away with legacy compatibility also.

    Back on my younger days, (1981-82) I flew a Cherokee 6/300 flying cancelled bank checks around. What a wonderful airplane, and superb payload. Probably that instrument upgrade gave you a few more pounds of payload. I noticed wind information when you showed the AOA. And also, noticed the different power quadrant, which is better than the typical Piper levers, as it frees up space to operate the electronics. Yeah, some of those quotes were just highway robbery. The engine instrumentation is awesome. Your Cherokee 6 is an older model since its missing the smaller 4th window after the doors, but looks awesome. Great job. Nice looking family.

    Hi Mo, It's amazing that you can make a living by flying around cancelled bank checks. Who would have thought? But it sounds pretty cool! The payload did increase by around 30 lbs. And yes, that back door would have been great but the ones available at the time were not worth it. They were beat up pretty bad! Thanks and have a great day!

    Thinking about doing a full upgrade on my PA28-180 since I know it flies well (been using it for training toward getting my PPL) and the market is pretty bare for a used plane with nice avionics and air conditioning. I'm in Texas and hopefully I can find a good shop to handle avionics, probably another place to restore the AC (was previously installed and removed many years ago), get an autopilot (currently there but inoperative) and then do a bunch of cosmetic stuff like some interior upgrades and a full repaint.
