What do you mean it would cost a fortune?  Whom would I be paying 

money to, and for what?

AFAIK, no one has STC'd a standby alternator for early Mooneys. The 

only place to put one would be on the vacuum pump pad. Unless one 

has been STC'd for the O-360, you would spend a fortune getting it approved.

I think that Kelly was referring to getting a full general STC rather  

than a one-time STC. The former may require flight testing and a lot  

of paperwork to the FAA, as well as a fairly long lead time. Time and  

aircraft time cost money. I agree with him if that is what he was  

thinking.



As for a one-time STC, that is easier (and cheaper) to get. Still,  

you are going to probably end up making several trips to the FSDO and  

you are probably going to have to submit drawings and descriptions to  

the engineering folks. That may not cost a lot but will certainly eat  

up some time.
