MQQNEY Posted September 19, 2016 Report Posted September 19, 2016 Hi to all from Sydney Australia! I've just achieved my long time dream of becoming a Mooney owner, after purchasing FRO, a 1964 Charlie model. Looking forward to many hours of great flying in it 15 Quote
Raptor05121 Posted September 19, 2016 Report Posted September 19, 2016 Welcome! I have always wondered how they got these planes over there. Ferry tanks across the Pacific? 2 Quote
Danb Posted September 19, 2016 Report Posted September 19, 2016 Good daay mate, my son in law is from Sydney, he's been in the states for 11 yrs or so, goes back to Sydney every December for a month. 2 Quote
carusoam Posted September 20, 2016 Report Posted September 20, 2016 Welcome aboard MQQNEY, Saw the pictures you sort of posted yesterday! Was wondering if you were going to post out loud. Best regards, -a- 1 Quote
MQQNEY Posted September 20, 2016 Author Report Posted September 20, 2016 Thanks, yeah I'm a bit web-illiterate, but I'll get the hang of it! Quote
MQQNEY Posted September 29, 2016 Author Report Posted September 29, 2016 As expected, after a very short time I am greatly enamoured with my M20C, it's everything that I expected, and some. 2 Quote

Thank you, it feels great to be a part of what seems to be a real fraternity, and yes, like all mooneys, she's a joy to behold! She'll look even better with a lick of paint, but that's for later when I recover financially from the purchase! 1 Quote
cliffy Posted October 2, 2016 Report Posted October 2, 2016 Did you by chance attend one of the Mooney forums I put on in Albury or Rocky (Rockhampton) last summer sponsored by the Australian Mooney Pilots Association? If you haven't contacted them I suggest you do as they are great bunch of folks and have lots of info and flyins to share. Cs are probably the best bang for the buck in Mooneys IMO :-) Js predominate in AU but there are a good number of Cs also. 1 Quote
