wpilot673 Posted January 10, 2018 Report Posted January 10, 2018 (edited) My wife and I are currently saving money for our (mostly mine ) dream plane. The plan is to look for a Mooney C , E or an F. Those seem to be the models in our budget. The F model is our favorite so far. I wonder if there's anyone who would mind us looking at your Mooney and sitting in it and checking it out to get an idea if it's for sure the type we want. I have been in an old C model but that was years ago. She's only seen them on the ramp but does think "they're very pretty". I'm not looking to bum free flight time , just drop by and kind of "size it up". We live in Northeast Tennessee so anything reasonably close would work. I think this may help her get a little more excited about it. Thanks Edited January 10, 2018 by wpilot673 Quote
N6758N Posted January 10, 2018 Report Posted January 10, 2018 @Browncbr1 is a little further west, but he might know someone closer. Welcome! Quote
Browncbr1 Posted January 10, 2018 Report Posted January 10, 2018 I'm at KTYS if you're down this way, I'll show you around.... I know there are a few mooneys at KGCY as well 1 Quote
wpilot673 Posted January 10, 2018 Author Report Posted January 10, 2018 Thanks very much. That would be great! If weather permits , we will get in touch with you in a few weeks and fly down from KTRI. Quote
steingar Posted January 11, 2018 Report Posted January 11, 2018 Be careful what you wish for. Sitting in a Mooney the first time completely sold the deal for me. Only aircraft I’ve ever been in that I could see over the nose. 1 Quote
merrja Posted January 11, 2018 Report Posted January 11, 2018 My F is at KUZA if you're interested 1 Quote
Bob_Belville Posted January 11, 2018 Report Posted January 11, 2018 You're not far from MRN over the hills in NC where I have an E, a friend has a nice F (that he doesn't fly enough) and there's a couple of Js and a Rocket. 1 Quote

eman1200 Posted January 11, 2018 Report Posted January 11, 2018 >>> side note about 'eastern TN'.........play hooky from work, fly into 6A4 (Johnson County) and play a round of golf at Redtail Mountain. I highly recommend it <<< 1 Quote
