1964-M20E Posted June 28, 2014 Report Posted June 28, 2014 good luck on the new rating. I hope the weather works out for you. Quote
Hank Posted June 28, 2014 Report Posted June 28, 2014 Good luck with it, Rob! Send pictures of that Twin Mooney . . . . :-) We still need to meet for lunch now that I'm back South again. 2 Quote
lahso Posted June 28, 2014 Report Posted June 28, 2014 Best of luck. That's a good group down there. I had a great experience at ATP, and still use alot of the procedures taught. Quote
rbridges Posted June 28, 2014 Author Report Posted June 28, 2014 Rob, why JAX instead of FTY? JAX was the closest place that offered an accelerated program. Couldn't find much in the way of online reviews for other places nearby. BTW, Gus, I used that cleaner you gave me to remove oil from my gear doors. That stuff is awesome! Quote
rbridges Posted June 28, 2014 Author Report Posted June 28, 2014 So Rob...is an airline job next? haha. until people start brushing their teeth better, I've got job security. 1 Quote
Mooneymite Posted June 28, 2014 Report Posted June 28, 2014 haha. until people start brushing their teeth better, I've got job security. That stuff you used on your gear doors? That's what I use on my teeth. Awsome! Quote

rbridges Posted June 29, 2014 Author Report Posted June 29, 2014 How's the progress? When is your rating ride? so far, so good. the seminole is pretty easy to learn. Coming in final at 88KIAS is weird after flying a mooney. Checkride is scheduled for tuesday at 11. 1 Quote
Mooneymite Posted June 29, 2014 Report Posted June 29, 2014 Have you picked out a nice Aerostar to supplement your Mooney lust? That would be a nice surprise for your wife when you get home! Quote

I lucked out and have a buddy that bought a twin bonanza. not as fun as your hatz, but carries a few more people. Quote

Mooneymite Posted June 30, 2014 Report Posted June 30, 2014 does it have the couch and toilet, or just the couch? Forget the couch and toilet....does the friend pay for the gas? :-) The T-bone is a thirsty animal! 1 Quote
rbridges Posted June 30, 2014 Author Report Posted June 30, 2014 Forget the couch and toilet....does the friend pay for the gas? :-) The T-bone is a thirsty animal! no kidding. 2 1/2 times the fuel burn and 10 more knots. Quote
Mooneymite Posted June 30, 2014 Report Posted June 30, 2014 no kidding. 2 1/2 times the fuel burn and 10 more knots. Yeah, but you get to sit up so high and look down on everyone else! That's worth a lot. :-) Quote
