Come on guys. Until Mooney starts selling new planes anywhere close to the rate Cirrus does, Andy can crow, and crow some more. The Cirrus is less efficient, slower on 30 more horsepower, and though looks are subjective, is not as handsome as a Mooney. Everyone knows this. The engineers at Cirrus had a clean sheet design and over 35 years of newer engineering knowledge to work with, and still could not make a plane near Mooney's performance numbers 'accept' for carrying stuff. Good for them. Congratulations. No more to see here. Move along citizens. We as Mooney fans need to hope (pray) that now that the certification has been issued, Mooney sells all the units already assembled, has more orders waiting in the wings, and keeps selling until their next upgrade (whatever that may be). If that doesn't happen......... Congratulations to Mooney on the achievements. Good luck to the future. I Wish I could buy 10 new Ultras. DF

Hmmmm. What ATC? He he

I'm Joe average at 51. I certainly hope my brain power lets me fly another 25 years.

Please clarify #4 for me please. By the way, watch out for @gsxrpilot, I think he is a closet CBR kind of guy.

These young guys around here may not know Groucho or his brothers.

@Oldav8tor @Old97 @oldbold @Oldcousin @olddan @Olddog @Oldflyer @OldFlyGuy @OldGlassMan .... How about these members?

What about @Oldguy? He hasn't chimed in yet.

With Jesse at the pointing the wrong (correct) way tail.

And Bennett takes the lead

"I have 2 oximeters and a SkyOx setup in my M20E which I use even at 8000 if it's for 3-4 hours. But I'm really old." Above is a recent quote by @Bob_Belville. It got me wondering him is the oldest here on MS? Who is the youngest? Just wondering

Thanks

HA.

I have been offered time in a clients 172. I offhandedly offered to buy time to fly it as he flys infrequently. When I thought about it, I don't truly knows what that buying time actually means. What does buying time mean? How do you calculate, or charge? Renters insurance or added to the existing policy? please advise df

Did she sell?

Welcome to the forum. Please post a "hello" on the general board and tell us about yourself. Thanks for finding us here at Mooneyspace. Mcstealth

It's pretty neat flying over the oil fields. Fort Stockton has some, but just 50 miles north is Pecos, Tx that is thick with rigs right now.

Was it a three engine Falcon? Oh the Shame.

I'm not in town, but go by the steak house tomorrow night. I will buy you a dessert. Tell Lori or Linda that I will pay them Sat night. they hate it when I do this kind of stuff..... He he he. Congratulations David. Edit for spelling. Not that anyone would care.

Just my memory, but something to do with the actual tubing that makes up the landing gear, is a different thickness, or spec, and therefor excludes some J's....... This from memory banks only. Going to research tonight.

I'm not so sure of this statement Going to do some research.

This probably won't help, but there is a company on the field in Midland Odessa that rents a nice O2 ($220 wet?) and has CFII'S.

Step away from the ............

Too far and the wrong direction I'm afraid.

I forgot the title of the thread. I was thinking 252 and not Encore. GSXR is next.

Wow. That is an impressive UL for that model.
