I am a private pilot with a little over 800 hrs in Tail wheel and 10 hrs in Mooney's over the years, I haven't flown in the past 15 years and am ready to get back into flying again. I just completed purchased a Mooney M20F and due to several moves have lost one of my 3 log books. I am looking for A CFI with Mooney Experience to get my complex sign off and 4 or 5 hrs of Mooney time to get comfortable with landings and maneuvers again so i can possibly pick up my Mooney and bring it home if I can't find a ferry pilot before i can get some time in. I have been brushing up my navigation skills with AOPA courses and simulations using x-wing. and going through my old Instrument course tapes....
I use to fly nightly from 5w5 to INT and back in a PA-12 the 10 hrs in Mooney's was maintaining several M20C's in the Raleigh area. The CFI I used for high performance at the time has since passed away so no biggie I need the checkout any way and a BFI and the additional instruction time is always valuable.
I just want to be safe not sorry
