Need a Mooney instructor in Atlanta

[Skywarrior]

Hello, all -

 

Need a Mooney-experienced pilot to ferry my Bravo from 20GA to McCollum Field to get avionics repairs. (My BFR is expired.)

 

Also need to do the BFR, obviously. I tried Jim Stevens, but he won't be available when I'm in town, Sep 26th & 27th. I'm working out-of-state in Philly, so I have only limited opportunities to do things with my plane.

 

I *could* get a BFR in, say, a C-172 here in Philly, but I really need to fly in my own plane. I've been out of the cockpit for over 2 years.

 

Anybody know someone?

I'm sure people will throw names at you, but just in case, the guy I bought my mooney from was based at RYY and he was a CFI.  He may be able to do it if no one else has a suggestion.

I have a bravo and am based at both Ryy and pdk(keep Saratoga at Ryy) unfortunately, I am not aware of any mooney specific instructors in this area. Joey Cole used to instruct, but he is strictly doing mechanic stuff these days. Let me know if I can help in anyway, or if you need a ride back to your field when you drop your plane off. I look for any excuse to fly!

Regards Frank

Michael O'Neal out of PDK is an excellent instructor with lots of Mooney time. I know he routinely ferries one of his client's Ovations from Tennessee and back for maintenance, and he does my BFRs.  I don't like putting people's phone numbers on the internet so I'll send you his contact info via PM.
