mooney_matt Posted September 9, 2017 Report Share Posted September 9, 2017 Anyone know of a good CFI with Mooney experience in the Austin, TX area? I'm about to pick up a new-to-me M20F that will be hangared at KRYW, and need some help getting up to speed on all things Mooney. Also, hello! Glad to be joining the Mooney club and excited to start diving into the world of plane ownership. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DonMuncy Posted September 9, 2017 Report Share Posted September 9, 2017 Welcome aboard Matt. Several Mooneyspace guys are around Austin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LANCECASPER Posted September 9, 2017 Report Share Posted September 9, 2017 Brian Lloyd hangs around San Marcos and lives in San Antonio - he just flew around the world in his Mooney. Bob Cabe, another great Mooney instructor, is in Universal City, about an hour from Austin. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aggiepilot04 Posted September 9, 2017 Report Share Posted September 9, 2017 +1 for Bob Cabe. He did my transition into the Acclaim. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mooney_matt Posted September 9, 2017 Author Report Share Posted September 9, 2017 Fantastic, thanks for the recommendations! Look forward to meeting up with some of the central TX area pilots once I can actually fly the darn thing 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rainman Posted September 9, 2017 Report Share Posted September 9, 2017 +2 for Bob Cabe, he was great when I got my Mooney. Also welcome, I'm based at Boerne Stage (5C1) near San Antonio. PM me if I can be of any assistance. Ray Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gsxrpilot Posted September 10, 2017 Report Share Posted September 10, 2017 You should definitely fly with Bob or Brian as they're both top CFI's with lots of Mooney experience. But after that, come fly with Bucko, myself, Doc, etc. We fly out of San Marcos and do a lot of formation flying. Nothing like some formation time to help you really learn your airplane. First you'll ride right seat with one of us and later one of us will ride right seat as safety pilot for you. Warning* - formation flying is very addicting.
