    Thanks David, my old brain might be able to remember that route.

When you release the Alt key the =B2 pops up. Degrees (X=B0) is 0176 and (X=B3) is 0179. This is done through Charicter Map and there are many more. Check it out in System Tools. It is an automatic install for Windows XP but you might have to install it in 98/SE. Its on the Windows Disk. John D. Do Not Archive John, Wall, all'll be! How do you know all this stuff? do not archive either Dan

    Subject: What upgrades are possible on a certified plane?
    --> AeroElectric-List message posted by: Dave N6030X <N6030X@DaveMorris.com> I am buying a 1960 Mooney M20A with a Lycoming O-360-A1A engine which of course includes a vacuum pump and the usual vacuum instruments. The familiar T-arrangement on the instrument panel had not been conceived of yet in 1960. My last 13 years have been spent in the experimental world doing pretty much whatever I pleased, so I'm new to the whole certified world of 337s and PMAs and STCs and the like. I would dearly love to hire an A&P mechanic to pull out the vacuum pump and vacuum instruments, put a B&C backup alternator on the vacuum pad, mount a Flight Cheetah with XM Weather and solid state Artificial Horizon at the center of a high-tech T-arrangement, re-do the instrument panel so the instruments are more logically laid out, put the critical engine monitoring instruments on the left side where I can see them, etc. What latitudes does one have to do that sort of thing? Can you put a B&C backup alternator on any airplane? For reference, here's the "shotgun" instrument panel of the 60's: Left side: http://www.davemorris.com/Photos/Mooney%20N6030X/IMG_1639.jpg Right side: http://www.davemorris.com/Photos/Mooney%20N6030X/IMG_1641.jpg This is the coolest breakthrough in glass: Flight Cheetah: http://www.aviationsafety.com/products.htm By the way, this is a shot of one of the brand new engines going into a Mooney Ovation about to roll off the production line (I believe it's a Continental IO-540 or 550). You can't see it in the photo, but it sports a B&C backup alternator because of the Garmin G1000 glass cockpit and lack of need for vacuum instruments: http://www.davemorris.com/Photos/Mooney%20Factory%20Tour/IMG_1611.jpg Dave Morris

    --> AeroElectric-List message posted by: Kelly McMullen <kellym@aviating.com> I doubt you want to go through the process of getting field approval 337 on an aircraft that is becoming increasingly rare. Much easier way to get a backup is leave the vacuum pump alone to power DG and AH. Get one of Sporty's attitude indicators that are electric powered and can replace a turn coordinator directly per FAA Advisory circular. That gives you a backup attitude indicator if the vacuum quits.
