Skyhawk vs. Mooney

to do an annual every 100 hours. There is an AD that requires all
flight control connections and gear sections to be lubed every 100
hours.

What AD is that? I'm not aware of that. Is it model-specific?

The only ones on my list a
inspection of fuel injector fuel lines required by AD 2002-26-01
inspection of Bendix magneto ignition switch required by AD 76-07-12
inspection of Bendix magneto impulse coupling required by AD 96-12-07

If that's true that is a deal breaker. Take the plane apart every 100
hours for a lube job? Pathetic.

Your Bonanza doesn't require lube every 100 hours? You probably have
less panels to pull but most high performance singles require lube and
landing gear inspection every 100 hours one AD or another.

My '73 V35b does not.

Sorry, 150flivvewr, I was responding to Robert's comments about all Bonanzas
having similar ADs out there as this Mooney version, but my poor quoting left
off his sentence about the Bonanza. My mistake.

Your uplock rollers need to be lubed evey 100 hours. Have to check your
elevator fittings if they are still magnesium.

But this is not mandated by an AD, which is what I thought Robert was
previously implying. My V35b only has four applicable ADs: One related to the
main spar (dye-penetrant) every 500 hours, one related to the V tail every
400 hours, one related to the ignition every 100 hours, and the final related
to a Tornado Alley turbo clamp every 100 hours.

Yes it is mandated by an AD and it incles the V35B. 72-22-01 is for the
uplock rollers every 100 hours.

If that link got munched then Google the AD number.

You're not subject to the elevator control fittings AD because the V35B
didn't have magnesium fittings.

Yes, I do. It's a 10 minute deal however. You said you may as well
schedule the annual for every 100 hours because of all the labor
required to accomplish this. That's pathetic and an absolute deal breaker.
