Live with your Mooney! Atlanta area.

[Mooneymite]

My neighbor has just put his home up for sale.  I have no financial interest in this at all....I'm just a neighbor.

 

If you really want to get utility out of aircraft ownership and keep your airplane in your own hangar, consider keeping it at your house! 

 

While people do not normally associate Mooneys with turf runways, this is not your average "off field" variety.  4500'X150'!  My insurance broker does not charge extra for this location.   There are presently several Mooneys located here.  Two J's, four C's, and a couple of E's that I can think of.

 

Do not tell your wife, but the hangar is big enough for two Mooneys.

So, are you posting this in hopes that I will buy it and you will get to see me daily and hear my bad jokes in person?

Unfortunately, we already have enough residents of New Jersey in the neighborhood.  You will either have to improve your repetoire of jokes, or be "from somewhere else".

 

Actually, in my book, a neighborhood is judged by how many Mooneys are based there.  I'm trying to improve our standing.

B26 used to be from NJ. His plane and his heart are in PA, his bed is in DE. Whether he could handle GA or GA is readly for him...

[kmyfm20s]

I think it's the pinup posters of BBW hes after:) Just leave the hangar door open after you move in.

Took a look on the coldwell site and started to crack up, that same set up out here would go for over 2 million

Ya'all know that I probably qualify as a Southerner not only because of the drinks I drink but that I am indeed probably the only one of you that has a nice gun rack built for my Mooney.

Just ask Bambi...

Location, location, location....

 

Right?

 

When Western Airlines became part of Delta Air Lines, all those California pilots came to Atlanta and thought they were in the candy store.  They bought the biggest houses they could find with the change left over from their CA closings...and still had money left over.

 

Drove prices up and kind of ruined the cheap housing here....

[Marauder]

And, oh yeah, my dog is trained as well!

[Danb]

Poor Bambi..Chris did u fly Bambi home in your F model or was he having problems with your big Aspens..poor little doe eyed deer..

[Mooneymite]

Dang!

 

I'm beginning to think you would fit in!  

 

What beer does your dog drink?  I hope it isn't some yuppy-puppy brew.

I am not a big venison guy but do like deer meat jerky. My brother on the other hand feeds his entire family for the year on what we catch. BTW -- if you hadn't figured it out, that one is stuffed.

This is the one from last year. Will be back up there this weekend to complete the mission. Unfortunately 3 feet of snow and more to come is forcing me to drive

Trick you learned to sedate your Pilots N Paws clients?

I thought you Yankees all had snow tires on your Mooneys!

She is well trained. She will drink ANY beer. The other one just likes to sleep.

[Marauder]

Actually they are pretty calm. Aside from the fact they seem to like to fart a lot.

[Mooneymite]

She will drink ANY beer. 

 

Well, at least your dog would fit in.....

 

Is her name "Bo"?

That is a nice looking house, and I've flown into Mallard's Landing. With any medium or short-body Mooney it is a fine strip. Not sure if I'd trust it with the Ovation though.  On the Zillow link, it shows another house in the neighborhood with a price closer to $1M, but it's about three times the size.

 

As to the deer hunters, coming from Kansas originally I have no philosophical problem with hunting...killed plenty of birds and smaller critters in my day...but I just couldn't bring myself to shoot a deer.  They're just too pretty, and probably too closely resemble the horses I grew up training and cherishing.

You got to love winter flying in small planes. Spent way too many years checking the snow banks to see if my tips would clear. Or using a Mutt (not a dog) to break away ice that froze in front of my sliding hangar doors.

My favorite was the Ice Capades. Flew down to Erie, PA to help another Mooney owner retrieve his J on a sunny winter day. Get back to my home airport to find that the snow on sides of the runway melted and refroze as the sun was going down. Got to learn what aerodynamic braking is all about...

I don't miss my bottle of Prist or the sprayer I had filled with IPA. Ah, those were the days!

Here name is Lucy. As in crazy Lucy Ricardo.

[Mooneymite]

 ...another house in the neighborhood with a price closer to $1M, but it's about three times the size.

 

 

 

Uh....make him an offer!  It's been off/on the market for awhile.  Very nice place, but it's the most expensive house on the block....

[Mooneymite]

I don't.  Not in small planes, not in any planes.  I got stuck in UGN when the wind-chill was -40 last winter.

 

We're more realistic about cold weather flying:

 

You don't fly when the temperature in degrees F is lower than your age in years.

I'm sorry.  To live here, you'll have to call her "LUCY BO".

In the northeast they have become pretty domesticated because people are just not hunting as much. As a result they end up getting killed on the highways on a regular basis. Nothing saddens me more than coming up on a deer that has been clipped and is laying in the road in obvious duress.

There also has been a higher incident of people getting killed as deer end up through the windshield of cars (not to mention that few guys here have hit them on runways).

We can call her anything you like -- as long as you have a cold beer for her.
