  1. Thanks everyone for the warm welcome! I'd love to come to the Camarillo show but I've got another several months of deployment ahead. I've joined the West Coast Mooney Club though (didn't know about that one so thank you Bonal!). Cliffy, I also grabbed that book off eBay so it'll be waiting for me when I get home. I can already see the eye roll from the wifey when she finds ANOTHER book I've ordered at the front door. Thanks MooneyMitch! I'll keep SMX in mind. I drive right by there going between Santa Barbara and my base in the central valley so I'll stop and take a look this fall. Thanks Carusoam! My sleep schedule on the ship has moved significantly to the right because of this!
  2. Hello everyone, As the title implies, I'm brand new to MS and will be looking to find an M20F (unless I pull the trigger on a J) within the next year or so. Eventually, I'll be permanently based out of Santa Barbara. I fly active duty for the Navy and have done the mil comp commercial and CFII, and I did my ATP about 6 months ago. I've been watching massive chunks of my life disappear recently to the depths of MS... thanks to everyone that contributes to this impressive website! I have a couple friends that own F's, both are in the Navy as well, and I have broken their will to live with my constant questioning. And so begins my onslaught of questions on MS I've been looking into options at Santa Barbara as far as hangar space or covered parking (I don't know if there is any besides a hangar) or simply a tie down. The city owns 24 T-hangars that it rents out to the tune of $821/month + utilities. Currently there aren't any T-hangars or tie downs available according to the city's website. 1) Is anyone based at SBA, or have up-to-date knowledge of the general aviation life there? 2) Does anyone know of a well looked after F or J that could be on the market in the next year? 3) What events are there in the central CA area where I could meet local Mooney owners as I begin this journey? Thanks for any info and thanks again for all the time taken to contribute to MS! Loner
