Wishing you all the happy spirit of Christmas, or Hanukkah, or other religion of your choice.  Wish you a Happy New Year coming fast [fast like a Mooney!] too. 


We will be traveling to Sutter Creek over the holidays.  Also to the Anaheim area for a New Years celebration.


Anyone else have plans for Mooney traveling during these times?

Unfortunately nothing right now, other than giving some IFR instruction in my student's M20J.  But it could involve test flying a couple planes.


 


Looking at M20K, M20R, M20S, A36, and 8GC/KC right about now.


Needless to say, most of it is a debate between the following:


IO-550, TSIO-360, AEIO-360

Parker,


Go IO-550G until the time you can go TSIO-550...


M20R vs. M20TN.......(go big, until you can go bigger.....)


M20R = 20gph on take-off, <16gph ROP, somewhere near 11gph LOP.


Alex,


Send picture, that's a trip I would like to take (Rgaines has some nice photos (carribean and bahamas)  in his album - rip, RG).

Parker....my two cents is a TSIO-360, as in a real Encore, not some old K with an Encore conversion. Current prices a compelling for buyers, not so much for sellers.

This seems to be our MO for this time of year as we a doing exactly the same thing, with a couple of exceptions.  We're also headed to the Rose Bowl on Jan. 2 [Go DUCKS!] and flying with new cylinders in Maggie!! 


Merry to all of you and a great 2012 coming up!!

A MERRY CHRISTMAS and a very happy, healthy and prosperous New Year 2012 to all my fellow Mooney alumni and to your families!


I'm planning a flight up to Mt. Tremblant (CYFJ) for skiing next week. Should be fun. They are supposed to get lots of snow this weekend into next week. Will be back home for New Year's.
