Yooper Rocketman Posted March 22, 2015 Report Posted March 22, 2015 I thought I would scan this picture and share it with everyone. Wondering how many on the list may be in this picture (besides me)? Tom Sullivan Quote

Yooper Rocketman Posted March 22, 2015 Author Report Posted March 22, 2015 I had planned on flying into Oshkosh that year with the group, but circumstances worked against me. Watertown is less than an hour (in Rocket time) from Iron Mountain, MI. I flew down the day before the formation flight and helped with the registration. Thinking why not sleep in my own bed that night and fly back down the next day, I returned to IMT after the registration was complete. Got up the next Am and thunderstorms were between IMT and Watertown, so ended up driving down for the launch. At least I could help by loading a bunch of stuff in my truck and taking it to Oshkosh for those with payload concerns. I am standing behind the photo plane, right at the front edge of the tail (with less body weight and much less gray hair). My bird is the last Mooney back on the left row of Mooney's (blue and white). Needless to say, the photo was taken the day BEFORE the caravan to Oshkosh. The guy on the wing I am pretty sure was Jody Voss (?) from the factory. Tom Quote

Yooper Rocketman Posted March 22, 2015 Author Report Posted March 22, 2015 No, but I notice my plane to be was there (N3762N) OK, we're in suspense. Did you own it then or you bought it since 2002? Did you know it attended this event? Quote
Hernan Posted March 22, 2015 Report Posted March 22, 2015 I bought it in March 2013, wanted it an economical and fast plane and couldn't be happier, big difference from the c-150 I had flown for 11 years. No I didn't know till I saw the picture you posted. Thank you for posting the picture, now lives in one of my albums. 1 Quote
Christompa Posted March 4, 2020 Report Posted March 4, 2020 My dad owned N3762N for almost 30 years. I miss that plane so much.... the heated dipstick. He made it. Everything was touched on that plane. He was a toolmaker. Quote
