yvesg Posted July 12, 2018 Author Report Posted July 12, 2018 Good news. Sabremech has offered to help by becoming sponsor for the event through his company: GDS Aero, manufacturers of the Mooney Sabre Cowl. This will ensure we end-up in the green for expenses for the event. More to follow. Thanks David and Cindi. Yves 8 Quote
jjbiub Posted July 13, 2018 Report Posted July 13, 2018 (edited) I anyone planning to fly into KSBM during Oshkosh? I’ve been a renter and am currently working on my IFR and am considering purchasing a Mooney. I have time in Cessna, Piper, Cirrus, and Diamond aircraft primarily but Mooney has risen on my radar based purely on my research as I have never set foot in one. Would love the opportunity to see the inside and if possible even go up for a flight. I live and work about 5 minutes from KSBM and plan to make it to Oshkosh for a day or afternoon as well.

I suspect that if you traverse the North 40 during the morning or evening you'll find plenty of willing Mooney pilots happy to show off their aircraft. Flying one is a bit more of a deal during the show. 1 Quote

N9453V Posted July 14, 2018 Report Posted July 14, 2018 (edited) I've been slacking on posting on MooneySpace lately, but I will be at OSH this year and would like to attend. A friend's flying in with me, so it'll be me + 1. He's a Cherokee-owner so everyone can feel free to make fun of him. Thanks! Edited July 14, 2018 by N9453V 1 Quote

Make your element Lead look good ... especially THAT one, or you will never hear the end of it here! 1 Quote
amillet Posted July 16, 2018 Report Posted July 16, 2018 I thought being # 3 meant that lead doesn’t trust you to land next to him in the element landing Quote

mooneygirl Posted July 16, 2018 Report Posted July 16, 2018 Personally I think I did pretty darn good as a #3 last year! LOL. 2 Quote
Ned Gravel Posted July 16, 2018 Report Posted July 16, 2018 C’mon guys. This is how you make your lead look good. 3 Quote

We have also about 20 more guests that are part of the Caravan but not MooneySpace members... so a total of about 123 people. Those 20 contacted me via email to let me know they will be there. DEADLINE: Deadline is past. I will only make additions if you signaled your attendance before the deadline and I missed it. (Has to be done no later than Monday) Please review the above list. Not being on this list only mean that the pilot will not have a name tag with "printed" MooneySpace handle. We will have spare ones allowing writing handle with a Sharpie pen and people (like Bob) who want people to write their full name :-) Tags expectations: With the large number of people, we will only have tags for pilots.

N9201A Posted July 17, 2018 Report Posted July 17, 2018 I thought being # 3 meant that lead doesn’t trust you to land next to him in the element landing That used to be true. We renumbered to conform with FFI/FAST practice where "2" is the less-experienced wing. 1 Quote
