Hello all Yes, I am still in KHWD. I work at a Flight Dispatcher @ Ameriflight and a second job at the Jetcenter so I pretty much have my mail delivered here during the week If anyone happens to stop by..taxi up to the Ameriflight ramp. I would love to take a seat in one to check it out, and I am sure a lunch could be arranged for your trouble. Best to all Mike B

Thanks everybody. I am feeling pretty good about my up and coming Mooney purchase PS: HWP = "Height, weight, proportionate" Just another way of saying a regular sized guy. Best to all, Mike B

Hello all. So I have been researching Mooneys pretty regularly for the past 6 months or so in preparation of purchasing one early next year. For the type of flying I do and considering it will most often only be carrying my significant other and myself plus a few bags, am leaning towards a "C" or "E" model. I am also looking to complete my IR in the plane also. Now, here is the question. For all the research I have done the one thing I have not done is actually sit in one, to see how I fit in it and how it fits with me, (Truly sad considering I work 2 jobs at KHWD, so I am surrounded by airplanes literally 24/7 Are their any Mooney owners based at KHWD on this site that would mind letting me sit in their plane for a few minutes to see how well it will work for me? I am sure it won't be an issue since I am only 5'7 and HWP, but I definitely want to try on the shoe before investing in a pair Thank you in advance, Mike B
