gsengle Posted March 1, 2011 Report Posted March 1, 2011 I remember in '94, having just gotten my ticket, dreaming about the (then) new Ovation. I read the Plane and Pilot article but for some reason never thought that someday that would be me. Years later, a few years of Piper Arrow later, an instrument ticket and many flight hours later (a few too many at 137kts) I find I have a '96 Ovation in the hangar! Very excited, and have read quite a lot of your posts here in making my decision. Just checking in to thank you all in advance for your community and help in the months and years to come. Excited to be here! Based at 7B2, Northampton, MA yours, Greg Quote
jax88 Posted March 1, 2011 Report Posted March 1, 2011 Very nice, and welcome. The pilots, owners, vendors, mechanics, and friends here are an invaluable source of information and encouragement. Quote
MooneyMitch Posted March 1, 2011 Report Posted March 1, 2011 Welcome to MooneySpace Greg. Congratulations on your Ovation. What a terrific airplane. I know you are enjoying having that in your hangar. Who would have ever thought, eh? Me too!! Quote

carusoam Posted March 2, 2011 Report Posted March 2, 2011 Greg, Welcome to the long body section of the Mooney world. I think you'll find it wicked cool....... Best regards, -a- Quote
gsengle Posted March 2, 2011 Author Report Posted March 2, 2011 @Mitch - I'm sure I'll enjoy having it in my hangar, but I suspect I'll like it even more when I have it out of the hangar Quote

skyking Posted March 2, 2011 Report Posted March 2, 2011 Greg: Welcome to the site. Thats one hunny of a plane. Mitch: Love the new avatar, but here at little ol Cooking Lake we were the coldest spot in North America yesterday at -35. Minus 42 with the wind chill. Quote
MooneyMitch Posted March 2, 2011 Report Posted March 2, 2011 Hi Greg, I met you the other day at 7B2, and saw your plane there. I'm the tall woman with the older Mooney (M20F). Welcome to the forum. Alisha Quote
MooneyMitch Posted March 2, 2011 Report Posted March 2, 2011 I don't know why it posted my message under Mitch's ID. That's not me. My ID is 'Leesh' Alisha Quote
fantom Posted March 2, 2011 Report Posted March 2, 2011 If Jodie gets wind of this, you're both in trouble ;-) Quote
MooneyMitch Posted March 2, 2011 Report Posted March 2, 2011 Hi Alisha. Posting under someone else's ID has happened to me before too. What seems to be the issue is making sure that your ID is displayed in red in the upper right hand corner of the page.............where it says Logout. If not, just log out and start over. I always enjoy reading your posts too. How did your elevator trim stiffness get resolved? Happy Mooney flying! Quote
gsengle Posted March 2, 2011 Author Report Posted March 2, 2011 Hi Alisha! Any pictures of your aircraft here? Hope to see you and it on the field again soon Quote
