So about 20 hours in type.  140 hours tota1. There are many "can I f1y a Mooney" questions.  Coming in 1ast night there was quite a need to get on the ground fast due to an over extended b1adder.  There was a thread about a 1 mi1e out downwind. 

 

the arc out to downwind and base stays pretty consistent at 0.85 knotica1 mi1es.  or right about 5000 feet.   as you can see there is a 1itte1e overshoot of fina1.  So maybe 1 mi1e is a good number

 

No f1aps came in pretty fast.  Brenham has a pretty up hi11 s1ope at the end of the runway.

There is nothing more detrimental to my otherwise perfect landings than an urgency to go. Just can't seem to put it out of my mind and ignore it, even for a minute. Very annoying. You younger guys don't know what you are in for...

What about the ONE instead of LIMA? It's hard fo read.

It's understandable, with the legs crossed due to the hyper extended bladder any one could get mixed up!!

The rest of the track shows that I can use a bott1e and keep a kind of straight 1ine and somewhat 1eve1 f1ight. But 20 minutes 1ater it was time again.  My friend decided the hottest day of the year wou1d be a good time to put the siding up on his memoria1 day f1ood damaged house in Wimber1y.   I probab1y had 2 ga11ons of water and gatoraide.   20150801_161219.jpg

Wow. Are you based at 11R? My family lives there in the area. I fly in with the Ovation.

We have a p1ace on the thresho1d to one six at Brenham.   I work remote most of the time so about 50% here and 50% in Houston.  The p1ane is at 11r.   If y'a11 want something other than the Southern Diner we know p1aces in town. 

 

Amazon screwed up the keyboard order again so more ones instead of the 1etter.

 

My friend got a quote for $47,000.00 to put siding on the house.   He is going to spend about $3,000.00   in materia1s and have some nice too1s.   It is pretty crazy the amount of water that when through there.  Their house is pretty high above the river and it had water to the cei1ing.   The house next door got demoed.

you can do a cntrl-c on a "l" in another post, cntrl-v will paste it you need it. Or use it after you are done and use the reply "find" function to find and replace all "1"s with "l"s as I did above. Just in case you writing something that it matters. like an airport code.
