Vince Tee Posted January 28, 2019 Report Posted January 28, 2019 Hello everyone! I'm very new to this page and I've enjoyed reading the comments on here. very insightful. I am wondering if anyone know or could recommend a great mechanic or a shop that does prebuy/prepurchase inspection on Mooneys? My offer for a 20j 201 was just accepted and I am very excited but the purchase is pending a prebuy. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I already tried to search button but maybe I just didn't see it. If there is a list out there or a previous post, please let me know and I'll erase this thread to not clog up to forum. thank you again! -Vince Quote
orionflt Posted January 28, 2019 Report Posted January 28, 2019 Hi Vince, As i said on Facebook, Lasar would be a good chioce due to the location, but otheres will have more names for you. the most important thing is to get a mooney expert to look at it. A good A&P will do an excellant job but an expert knows where to look for the stuff that could ruin your day. Brian Quote

jaylw314 Posted January 28, 2019 Report Posted January 28, 2019 Shoot, I'd have recommended CrownAir in San Diego/Montgomery Field, but somebody recently mentioned they're either no longer a MSC or no longer doing pre-buys or both (I can't remember). They still may be worth a call and are a little closer than LASAR. Of course, my geography may not be so strong, so don't quote me on that. Gee, I'm not that much help, am I? Quote
carusoam Posted January 29, 2019 Report Posted January 29, 2019 Welcome aboard Vince. We have a few people out that way... Stand by for the recommendations... For all things in the Vegas area... I tend to ask @Jeev he runs a couple of aviation business out that way... Best regards, -a- 1 Quote
Jeev Posted January 31, 2019 Report Posted January 31, 2019 Congrats on the acceptance of the offer and welcome!!! If it is based in Vegas I probably know the aircraft or the seller. My partner shop EGA Aviation at KVGT knows Mooneys well and maintained my previous J for over 10 years. Len the IA there will pick it apart and give an honest assessment of the aircraft for a fair price. Feel free to reach out if you would like at https://wolfaviationsales.com I am more than happy to help in any way I can. Good luck on the purchase, you will love the J Sanjeev 1 Quote
