Congrats I share my Hangar with a Tiger. Grumman went to great lengths to make the tiger a fast fixed gear I'm sure you will enjoy flying it. Some pics would be nice

Here you go guys.  

4000 hrs total time, 400 hrs on the engine rebuild done by Zephyr in 2012.  400 hrs on the prop too.  Stec 30 autopilot with altitude hold, older Garmin IFR legal GPS/Comm.  Not so great but workg comm 2 and narco navs.  Good complete logbooks and good airframe and glass.  Paint fair to good and a newish interior.

Seller agreed to an annual at the "Service Center" for the prebuy.  

135 knots on 10.5 gph at altitude.

Not as cool as a Mooney but I think it will work for me.

Nice Tiger.  I love all of the panel space. You are not far off from Mooney ownership.  The Tiger and the Mooney 201 are both linked to Roy LoPresti...

that's a great looking plane.  I bet you have an awesome view from the cockpit.  Congrats and enjoy!

Thanks to all for the kind words.

Yes, the view is amazing!  Especially with the canopy open!  Great ventilation on the ground and in the air with it open.

Yeah, that's got to be nice, especially in the summer. My little ball cap-sized window doesn't let a whole lot of air in, but I've also never opened it in flight (although I guess I can, as long as I'm below the placarded 150 mph speed).

Hey glafaille - congrats on the airplane. Funny how you're so set on something and then something completely different comes around and it's perfect for you/ hope you really enjoy it!

A Tiger is a great plane, likely the fasted fixed gear production planes.  I had a customer who flew one through a tree once, caved in the wing right to the spar which spit but didn't break.  Fletch air rebuild it.

  Tri-flow helps the canopy slides.  Don't forget the recurring 200 hour AD on the prop hub.
