  6. I had my first door pop in the beech on Saturday , forgot to latch it , it didn't pop until after rotation , did a normal pattern but did not retract the wheels.....Noisy as hell , and my passenger was half frozen when we landed.....It is extremely distracting....
  7. About a hundred or so
  8. 2100 feet of grass while "doable" is not Ideal for a mooney , our gear doesn't "like grass" and the landings will have to be within 5 MPH of 75 mph or its going to be exciting to say the least..... and you cant stop it with the brakes if the grass is wet......Sounds like a great field for a 182 ....
  9. It looks like someone relieved themselves on the wing...
  10. Experience is always the best teacher....most machines have common points of failure.....
  11. When I did the cowl closure on my "B" I elected to install it with screws and rivnuts , I like being able to remove it if needed....
  12. Seth , last time I was in GAI , I was parked nest to that Phenom.....Scary stuff , I was so glad when I read the article that it wasn't a Mooney.....(yours)...
  13. I just want to mention that Smoketown is the only one I have ever seen with a "real" paint booth .... Also they have many employees so the turnaround is fast , I have used Jin Russell for smaller jobs , but elected to have Smoketown do the big job......
  14. It wont happen at Smoketown for 8 K , or Reese either.....My turnaround was about 5 weeks.....And I waited three months for a slot....

  19. John Pollante out of Cross Keys , has thousands of hours Mooney time ,
  20. you get what you pay for.....
  21. Ebay it and be done with it..
  22. Totally disagree , Guy does a lot of business.....I personally know from experience no financial commitment = No commitment....
  23. Perhaps from experience he realized that if a group of 39 buyers wouldn't come up with 110.00 , there was not 7K worth of business to follow.... Seems like a pretty simple equation.... and a smart decision...
  24. If you are worried about unfiltered air , then you better never use the ram air.....A piece of the boot running through the engine will not hurt anything....... These are not space shuttles we are flying.......Geez
