Brian, I know I've asked you this before but I can't remember. Is yours pressurized?

Nope, I have onboard o2 all plumbed into the overhead panel- the pressure bulkhead on the pressurized IVp or ESP (we all have same fuselage) really kills baggage space, I stopped looking at the ESP when I saw pictures of the difference

I took a three day "adventure" with Field Morey at http://www.ifrwest.com and his Cessna TTx. We met up with fellow BT'er Chris Lamprecht from Austin TX in Monterey California for a great meal at Clint Eastwood's Mission Ranch Restaurant.

Really exciting three days of flying with lots of weather, into the flight levels and landing in the snow near minimums in Missoula Montana.

Returned home today into Seattle with beautiful snow covered Cascade mountains. Can't wait to do his another one of Field's adventures. Alaska maybe? Highly recommended!

Good to meet you Chris!

Great to meet you Mark! With the winds from the west, I reached 250kts groundspeed on the return flight from Monterey to Austin, stopping in Las Cruces for fuel.

Here's a pic from the way up, on final for runway 03 at Sedona in the late afternoon:

I'd love to buy a FIKI TTX but it's way over my budget. A Columbus 400 is more in my price range.

I could buy a TKS 400 but it won't have the full coverage or backups that the FIKI TTX has.

I wonder if I could buy a non TKS 400 and then have all the FIKI components that are installed on the TTX installed.

Of course the install would not be FIKI certified, but it would be nice to have the peace of mind of the additional equipment.

I have left a message with CAV. I report back what they tell me.

Congratulations! I hope you enjoy flying it as much as I do mine. I'm jealous of that new airplane smell too!
