Vintage Mooney - I am including everything pre '18

[wcb]

Was just reading a couple of threads when I thought....When everyone starts bringing up the age of their planes (mine is 42) (my old one was 54 when I sold).  All I can think of is:

 

It sure would be nice to have one of those two door Mooney's

I'll be able to afford a model year 2018 two-door Ovation in 2072

Maybe, maybe not. Used aircraft prices have been on the rise lately.

Nope ,by 2072 ,small general aviation aircraft will be banned,and we will all be getting arround on non polluting bicycles

Warp engines will be the thing by then.  A cross country flight will be to Pluto.

Just where did I put that plasma injector during the last annual?

 

Wonder how the old Mooney would perform with a Warp engine??

Fake news.  When I was a kid, I was promised flying cars by 2000 if not 2020.  All I got was increase in the data feed from my plane for $2000.00

I like my Mooney just fine.  I doesn't go as fast as the new ones, but it goes fast enough for me.  And there isn't as much stuff to break.
