  1. I base at KCZL. Saw the entire incident, until they hit the grass. Gear was down. Fire started in engine compartment, well after impact. Both men walked away. As everyone said after the incident....get training and stay current on the training. When this unfolded in front of me, I didn't know how to get the fire extinguisher off the wall. Didn't think to train myself in that small feat. If you don't train and practice, you don't know what you will do when and if your engine quits.
  2. Guess I should have read the header. Got it.
  3. What is the program called? I am looking for some advanced training. Sam
  4. HA! Thanks! You too! I get complimented on the plane every time I have it out. Sam
  5. Everyone I have been off-line for a while. Thanks for all of the good vibes everyone has sent back! I LOVE the airplane. Although I am having trouble finding time to get seat time. I am just getting use to flying the airplane and learning to use all of the bells and whistles. Greg D...I hope the same is true for me. Thanks for the encouragement. I have heard so many stories of engines having to be changed after purchase, no matter the engine hours, decided to go this direction. GeeBee....yes. Good suggestion. I actually meant factory new. Hoping to make it to next annual (October) then make the change. Sam
  6. It does have a high time engine. My plan? Swap it out for a factory reman. One of my boxes that I was trying to check when I was looking was to find the airplane that had an engine that was at or beyond TBO. I wanted to put "my" engine in. Not pay the premium of a mid-time engine only to have to change the engine right away. Heard enough of those stories. As I said, long and sometimes frustrating search. When the time comes, I am ready. Why do you ask?
  7. Thanks, loving the airplane. I went to the airport last week. I was told no space, even tiedown. I would happily take a spot in a community hanger. I did fill out the waiting list form. If you hear of anything, please let me know. Thanks! Sam
  8. Thanks! Love the airplane. Just getting to know the plane, including weights. But my reality is the airplane with full fluids is a 2 place airplane, with baggage. But I knew that going in.
  9. Try this again!

  11. Yeah, right now I have the plane at RYY. CNI couldn't find me a spot. I think Joe gave me your number. Do you know if anything is available at CNI?
  12. I think I uploaded these correctly. Got a little more time in the plane today. Its a beast. I am working on getting to know the systems. I need to hook an external power source to charge the batteries so that I can familiarize myself with the avionics...and not drain the batteries. Dual batteries 24 volt system. Best way to accomplish that? Just a trickle charge on the batteries? Plane pics 2 - slmuncy335@gmail.com - Gmail.html Plane pics - slmuncy335@gmail.com - Gmail.html
  13. After a very long and sometimes frustrating search, I bought a Mooney. 94 Ovation. I couldn't be happier. I am really glad I was selective. Took the plane to Cole Aviation (service center) for the pre-buy . Really liked that crew! Plane went thorough pre-buy as well as the owner said it would! Went up last Sunday with a fellow Mooney driver and CFI and got some flight time and landings. All check out. Sam
  14. I did...thanks again. I am looking at an Ovation but it needs painted. I am trying to figure out some of the costs of getting the airplane to where I would like it. Thanks again! Sam
