My Son needs retract time — best plane?
JayDub6387 replied to JayDub6387's topic in Modern Mooney Discussion
Thanks. My Son’s purchasing the aircraft — I’m just assisting with the DD and cost is definitely factoring into the equation. -

Hi Mike, Kindly email me at justin@justinwinter.com to discuss transition training for my Son, Ben. We have a 1998 Ovation under contract and if we close we’ll own it in the next few weeks. Are you willing to train someone at their home airport? Ben is a “fly by the numbers guy”, as one must be to fly the Cirrus safely. The TBM is also very much a “fly by the numbers” airplane.
thanks, JW

Gents, Thanks very much for your responses. Prior to my TBM I owned two SR-22’s, and Ben flew many hours with me in that platform. He also flies with me in the TBM, so he’s used to high performance machines. I appreciate the referral to Mike Elliott and I’ll reach out to him for some extended Mooney Ovation training for Ben. With appreciation, JW -

Hello, My Son has his private check ride on April 19th. I fly a TBM and my Son will need a few hundred hours of retract and high performance time before he can be insured to fly my plane. Would a 1998 Ovation be a good plane for my Son to build hours? He learned in an SR-20. Thanks for your counsel. JW
