Guest Posted February 17, 2015 Report Posted February 17, 2015 Good Times, Great People Hope to see everyone again this year... and some new Mooniacs as well! Would a reformed Mooney pilot flying a Comanche be welcomed? Clarence Quote
RocketAviator Posted February 17, 2015 Author Report Posted February 17, 2015 Clarence, Im not in charge of anything and have no authority but we had a Cirrus join and fly with us in 2014. The Mooney & the Piper folks have a special time set aside to fellowship with Wine & Cheese & the Piper Folks come to the big Mooney BBQ. So based on what little I know they sure would welcome you. To fly in the Caravan you would need to attend one of the Formation flight clinics and meet the aircraft performance criteria. I dont know about the Comanche but I know my Saratoga would fly well with the Mooney If you are seriously intrested I will reach out to the group and find out what is involved. If you do get a Formation clinic approval I would be honored to have you fly with me. It is a great time. Quote
Guest Posted February 18, 2015 Report Posted February 18, 2015 I'm quite sure I would not do a formation flight, I may however show up for a beer or two. Clarence Quote

yvesg Posted February 19, 2015 Report Posted February 19, 2015 Lacee, I believe we could have ONE flight of non-Mooney airplanes... The Cirrus, Clarence with his strong machine and another friend who might join who will possibly do formation training with us here..... his machine is actually faster than any Mooney I know.... a Questair Venture. I already asked about this to the power that be... and awaiting an answer. Yves Quote
yvesg Posted February 19, 2015 Report Posted February 19, 2015 And I almost forgot to say: The Mooney Caravan schedule is out and there is a MooneySpace gathering planned on Monday July 20th at 6 PM... Lets hope that many from here can make it... Yves Quote
carusoam Posted February 19, 2015 Report Posted February 19, 2015 Yves, Bringing a turbine to an N/A flight could be hazardous to the personal economy... I would be interested in sharing fuel expenses if he needs a passenger... Quote

I would be interested in sharing fuel expenses if he needs a passenger... Best regards, -a- My friend's Venture is N/A and he cruizes around 220 knots. We calculated both our miles per gallon rates on a napkin at the last local get together piLots breakfast and he does slightly better than me! Yves 1 Quote
