Joe Zuffoletto Posted January 29, 2014 Report Posted January 29, 2014 There's a gentleman who hangs out at my home airport who takes great telephoto shots of arriving and departing aircraft. He got some really good images of my Mooney this past Sunday morning. First one is at wheels up, with Pike's Peak in the background: Second one is coming in to land a short time later: 1 Quote
rbridges Posted January 29, 2014 Report Posted January 29, 2014 great looking plane. I don't think you could take a bad picture of it. Quote
HopePilot Posted January 29, 2014 Report Posted January 29, 2014 Extremely nice. Also, like the BMW paint scheme. Quote
kmyfm20s Posted January 29, 2014 Report Posted January 29, 2014 One of those days that your glad you kept the plane waxed! Looks great! Quote
Joe Zuffoletto Posted January 29, 2014 Author Report Posted January 29, 2014 One of those days that your glad you kept the plane waxed! Looks great! That's funny, I just had it waxed three weeks ago, when it came out of annual, and it really does pop! Quote
AndyFromCB Posted January 29, 2014 Report Posted January 29, 2014 For the life of me I just don't understand how the beech guys don't see that mooney is the best looking 4 seater ever made ;-) Well, second best, nothing looks beter than Lacair IV with wheels up. Wheels down though, looks like a sick seagull. I'd own one in a beat if I was still under the illusion that I actually know anything about flying an airplane. Quote
Joe Zuffoletto Posted January 29, 2014 Author Report Posted January 29, 2014 Thanks for the kind words, everyone. The photographer sent me several more images but none show the plane with the gear up. I plan to hire an air-to-air photographer this summer to get some in-flight shots. Quote
Marauder Posted January 30, 2014 Report Posted January 30, 2014 Joe -- sorry it took so long to reply (took a while for the drool to dry out of the keyboard). Simply beautiful... Love that scheme. Quote
Ned Gravel Posted January 30, 2014 Report Posted January 30, 2014 Thanks for the kind words, everyone. The photographer sent me several more images but none show the plane with the gear up. I plan to hire an air-to-air photographer this summer to get some in-flight shots. Or. You could fly in the Mooney Caravan. All kinds of folks in spare seats to take pictures of you from 40' away or so while in flight. Sent from my iPad Quote
RocketAviator Posted January 30, 2014 Report Posted January 30, 2014 Sweet indeed... I would like to get some take off & landing shots as well as in flight shots to include formation flight.... it is on my bucket list for this year! Quote
RocketAviator Posted January 30, 2014 Report Posted January 30, 2014 maybe this guy could be encouraged to be at the MAPA PPP in Denver this summer!! Quote
Joe Zuffoletto Posted January 30, 2014 Author Report Posted January 30, 2014 maybe this guy could be encouraged to be at the MAPA PPP in Denver this summer!! I'm sure he could be... he does a lot of aviation events. Quote
kris_adams Posted February 1, 2014 Report Posted February 1, 2014 Send him on down to Atlanta (now that the snow is gone) Quote
DaV8or Posted February 1, 2014 Report Posted February 1, 2014 Thanks for the kind words, everyone. The photographer sent me several more images but none show the plane with the gear up. I plan to hire an air-to-air photographer this summer to get some in-flight shots. Just have the guy at end of the runway get a few of you doing low passes with the gear up. Quote
