Brandontwalker Posted August 19, 2015 Report Posted August 19, 2015 I have been a member of Mooneyspace for a while now and it has been a great tool to obtain information in my quest for a Mooney. On Saturday, I picked up a new (to me) 1977 M20J and had the absolute pleasure of piloting this craft from Michigan to Alabama on my maiden voyage. I'm all in. What type of initiation rituals do I need to go through? 8 Quote
MB65E Posted August 19, 2015 Report Posted August 19, 2015 Well done! Nothing!!...except a good pic of your airplane! Congrats!! -Matt Quote
Brandontwalker Posted August 19, 2015 Author Report Posted August 19, 2015 Here is a picture of my 20J sitting in the hangar at the MSC in Lapeer, MI when I arrived. Would also like to add that Ron and Brent at the MSC offer top notch service. 5 Quote

rbridges Posted August 19, 2015 Report Posted August 19, 2015 Congrats. It's good to get another mooneys pacer nearby. Quote
1964-M20E Posted August 19, 2015 Report Posted August 19, 2015 Congrats  for the initiation you need to shave your head and get "Mooney Nut" and the Mooney logo tattooed on your left arm and run around the hangar screaming in ecstasy. 2 Quote
Browncbr1 Posted August 19, 2015 Report Posted August 19, 2015 Welcome to Mooney ownership! Maybe we need to have an Alabama get together? Hope Tennessee folk would be welcome. I did go to AU though! Quote
DAVIDWH Posted August 19, 2015 Report Posted August 19, 2015 Only other thing I can think of for your initiation would be to install an "Â Angle of Attack Indicator" and post photos on MS. Â That one really gets the posters going and you will then be fully pledged. Â congratulations!!! Quote
DXB Posted August 19, 2015 Report Posted August 19, 2015 Congrats! Â I think my "initiation ritual" as a total newbie was pulling MAP back to 18" while holding altitude to get to Vlo and wondering what magical power was keeping the plane from slowing down. Â Quote
Brandontwalker Posted August 19, 2015 Author Report Posted August 19, 2015 Tennessee friends are always welcome. We are actually heading to Tennessee on October 10 for the AOPA fly-in at Tullahoma. Camping spot is reserved and hoping for good weather. Quote
