How about labeling everyone with their user names and real names for those of us who couldn't make the party?

I can't make out faces but that looks like Becca so I assume Byron - Jetdriven is there...

If that is Becca, then that is probably Byron standing next to the Reaper.

Not positive but I thought as much.

I'm thinking that spar is still pretty stout. Good imitation of the famous factory pic with 30 Mooney associates on the wing of a J.

Yeah but I wasn’t there nor any of my women. That would be the real test.

Chris, Mooney did do a test using your women.  For obvious reasons, those pictures were destroyed.  :o

That ain't nothing. Try it with a wood wing.

We're at Donagel Springs watching Alan get ready to chop the first E Mooney. Anyone have anything they want to ask the reaper?IMG_3701.thumb.JPG.4eca22254b6de57481d6d1cd55344858.JPG

 

What's that on your feet Al, not shoes

Great party!

Seth did a great job with the outdoor cooking. A master of the propane BBQ!

One of the other guys on the passenger side wing is Paul, a NJMPer.

Tim C also brought a guest.

 

Standing up on the wing was a bit funny at first...  but when you see a cross section of the support structural parts that are inside the wing, you know it will take a lot of force to make it fail...

It was really great to actually fly to a Mooney fly in.  The first time I met all these people at a fly-in, I drove a Chevy.... or went with Marauder, or flew with 201er...

 

Weather was great, food was fabulous, Mooney people are spectacular...

It didn't take long to forget it was a wake.  God bless that little E, and thanks for bringing us together for the day.... :)

 

Best regards,

-a-

Yep, that's me, with Byron (jetdriven) standing inboard of me in the green shirt.  It was a beautiful day and a nice welcome to our new digs in this part of the country.

Here's a more close up picture of Byron.  He wants it titled "new idea for airport camping," but I'm going with "in the dog house."  The wing is apparently going to be a new desk for me, because airplane parts make the best furniture?

Becca, It was great to meet you this weekend.  I had flown with Byron a while ago...

I saw a few tables last night, that were essentially welded legs to put under a natural surface.

See if you can fashion some of the M20E's tubing into some legs... that would make a complete Mooney table!

 

Don's welding thread got me thinking...

how about a mobile desk using actual landing gear?  :)

Fancy red paint to match the M20J in the hangar....

Best regards,

-a-
