Wanted: Mooney block time, LA/Camarillo/SoCal area!
ViperOrbit posted a topic in General Mooney Talk
Howdy all — I’m looking to purchase block time in a Mooney (any model) in the larger Los Angeles area for a minimum of 50-100 hours. Non-equity partnerships welcome. Looking for 6 months (until June ‘22) or a year (until Nov ‘22), doesn’t have to be exclusive use, I just want to be able to take the airplane IFR/cross country every so often in the above time period. My qualifications: 900+ hr TT, 180 ME, 285 hr complex, 230 hr HP, 86 hours instrument, CFII/MEI. Happy to do any checkout the owner/insurance deems necessary, haven’t raised the insurance rates in previous airplanes I’ve been added to due to CFI and military flight time. Been a fan of Mooney airplanes for a long time, there’s little/no Mooneys in the LA area to rent, I’m active duty military due for a move in the next year so buying isn’t the right move for me right now (though I plan to be a Mooney owner in the near future!). I realize such an arrangement is probably quite rare but hopefully there’s someone in the LA area that could benefit from a short-term block time sale! Willing to be flexible so open to any leads. Thank you all for your time. -
I have reached an agreement to purchase a J model. Any pre-purchase/annual shop recommendations near L.A. are appreciated! The seller has agreed to pay additional to cover the cost for a full annual. Last year's annual was performed at Foothill. Also... my 1965 C model will soon be on the market after I take care of a couple minor issues (DG needs overhaul and G430W needs upgrade and refurbishment). It has been a great plane, but time to travel a little faster in a newer bird. It is equipped with an STEC 30, alt. hold and GPSS. I am the third owner. Second owner had it since the mid 70's. I would be embarrassed to tell you how much my first annual cost at Willmar... live and learn.
