Mooney_Allegro Posted October 8, 2016 Report Share Posted October 8, 2016 Tankinbarber, Yes, I'd be interested in attending, but I don't know my schedule yet for Nov/Dec. I would need over a month in advance to bid for my off days. For added fun in Las Vegas.....a Circ show, maybe Hoover Dam tour, Red Rock etc. Maybe have lunch or dinner at one of the strip buffets. I might be able to assist you if I have the time off. Regards, David Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bonal Posted October 8, 2016 Report Share Posted October 8, 2016 Vegas would be good, and for you east coast guys we don't have as many aviation events out west like fun N sun and Osh. And Mooney summits so if someone wants to put a MS get together a little ways out west don't cry cause it's a long ways away. Might be fun 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bryan1016 Posted October 9, 2016 Report Share Posted October 9, 2016 Vegas little too far from Alabama for me. If you all decide on New Orleans, I'll be there. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alternatively he could have his sweeties put on a show for us. I go to Vegas every December after the cowboys leave town Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You might touch base with Phil Corman who was doing a "Mooney Roundup" as he might have an interest in doing the legwork for you. Do you have a purpose in mind for the revenues of the silent auction and vendor support or would it be for profit? It would be nice to have the proceeds go to the Summit's fund for fallen pilots and family. Try to make some of it tax deductible 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandontwalker Posted October 11, 2016 Report Share Posted October 11, 2016 AL Lunch, Sat., 22 Oct. Where? SERFI? Evergreen. We are heading there already for the flyin on Friday, Oct. 21. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MyNameIsNobody Posted October 11, 2016 Report Share Posted October 11, 2016 (edited) My wife Kelly and I will be in Vegas 1/12. A great opportunity to meet and be shunned in person vs. through the internet. The idea of flying commercial for a "Mooney gathering" seems silly. I love Vegas, but I am not flying there by GA from Midwest. Half the fun is seeing everyone's planes...other half is communicating face to face with those that I have only bantered with through broadband... My vote would be Atlanta. In the Spring. Or Austin.

jkhirsch Posted October 11, 2016 Report Share Posted October 11, 2016 I'm going to reiterate that any respectable social outing should involve a game of golf. I know the above agrees. So I'm speaking for him too. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree that a lot of the fun is seeing everyone's planes. So let's meet somewhere that that's possible, without FBO escorts . . . Really missed that at the Summit! May make it to SERFI on Sunday. I forgot about it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We did organize a small get together during the Oshkosh week. See the following thread: We had over 30 people show up. We did this at the Mooney Caravan tent and the feedback has been good. I am planning a flight either to Florida or Vegas between Christmas and New-Year's so if you do this around those dates let me know... there is a good chance you can put me in as tentative. If you wish, I could put you in touch with Janet who is a lady flying a Mooney from North-Las Vegas airport who might be interested to help with a Vegas event. Regards, Yves I'll fly in with the caravan next year and be first in line for the pizza haha! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bryan1016 Posted October 12, 2016 Report Share Posted October 12, 2016 Alabama, Oct 22nd. I'm in middle so will let Hank and Jerry decide where. I'd suggest Auburn, but there's a game at 5:00 pm. In my younger days I'd have gone for the free food at FBO. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
