First Complex - Never been in a Mooney

Mark942 posted a topic in General Mooney Talk

Hi All, I have about 550 hours and had IFR rating 24 years ago. Stopped flying when I sold my business (used to use it to visit customers and suppliers) and family and life took over. Now, at 62 my wife told me I had to have a hobby if I ever wanted to retire. All I do is work. So, I started flying again. VFR and have picked up a few refresher hours under the hood. Love to fly IFR, and do cross countries and can now afford something a bit more than a 140, but not a lot. Looking at older M20's as a good deal for the money. BUT, I have owned a Cherokee 140, and a Beech Sundowner for many years, flown 172's, 150's, and Diamond DA20's and 40's and even a Van's RV7A. Never even sat in a Mooney. Kind of scary to put down a deposit on a plane a thousand miles away pending a pre-buy when I might hate the thing???? I live near Warsaw, Indiana KASW. Anyone willing to give me a ride. I would cover expenses of course. Thanks, -mark
