Nice job!

The airplane was transported to the base of the Control Tower where it sadly sits.

Negative on the gear up landing. The aircraft was taking off.

My wife named the airplane "Luna" because it's a "Mooney." As long as the wife is onboard with owning an airplane she get's to name it whatever she wants.

Unclear what happened. No injuries according to witnesses. Will provide more details as they become available.

I'd like to purchase one also.

An utter catastrophe!

If you soloed at 40 hours, then the majority of your flight time is with an instructor on board. I would encourage you to get more solo time prior to jumping into a complex aircraft with higher speeds and workloads. That will help you to develop your own mental (and written) checklists, and increase your experience and confidence to be able to look ahead during your flight and anticipate the "next step" in the flight. Also, with more solo hours, you will be able to recognize what is normal and what is a potential problem. I also agree with the idea of using a club or rental aircraft to work though your landings. They will not all be perfect. Best of luck with achieving your flying goals.

Thanks for sharing. Looks like a beautiful place.

What is the best way to relabel worn rocker switch labels? Some of mine are almost unreadable on my 1979 M20J.

Dumb video. But, more proof of the strength of Mooney aircraft.

Thank you for the info.

Are the rudder pedals similar for all models? i.e. Are the rudder pedal extensions model specific?

Where can one obtain a battery charger that plugs into the accessory electrical side port?
