Howdy gang.  New guy to this forum. First post is to ask a question of the K model owners about the operating costs for their birds... I am getting back into flying after a hiatus, and once I'm current again I am looking at something that can make the trip from Houston to the East coast a little more practical, which is where I've settled on the Mooney and most particularly the K models as what I would be interested in... Mission is wife and I going places, to see family, explore the country..
