I only watched the show to catch a view of the exquisite Thalia Menninger! 

I had to Google that one.  Holy cow!  That was back before color was invented!

Ms Minneger looked just fine in black and white !

it would be great to see a newly manufactured  J (which is my personal favorite), but any new M20 under new ownership would be slim to none (and slim is out of town!).  Maybe the M10T with fixed gear?  If they hired @blueontop to lead the engineering effort I think they would be wise.  

Honored and humbled.

I know very little, but I believe the new company IS working on something.

Alright, we’ve been waiting all day, starting with Mike Elliot’s inference that something with the factory evolution might be stranger than fiction!!

What do you know, and when did you first know it, and why haven’t you told us???? 

I know, Musk bought Mooney and is going to place an M20 atop his Falcon 9 rocket ship to Mars !!!  No, wait.... he’s going to launch the M10J !

The guy with the work allergy was Gilligan... before he had an isle...  
 

We have some time still...

 

While we wait...

 

We can work on increasing positive attitudes towards the Mooney factory, business, associated businesses, and People...

One smiling post at a time...

 

 

 

Teamwork makes the dream work...  make it happen, Mooney!

 

PP thoughts only, not a professional cheer leader...

 

Best regards,

For clarification...... never was paid by Mooney to be their cheer leader......I just got really good at it !!

My guess for a new professional pilot like Alex- @Raptor05121 is that he's in a good spot- making money flying airplanes, building time.  I bet he has a job at a regional airline sometime in 2022, which is only about 6 months off his expected timeline.

Yup. I've crossed 1,000TT a few weeks ago and hope to have 1,200 at the close of the season in November. I'll be coming home and promptly starting work on CFI. I'll no doubt have to go back to working at the local Sheriff's Office again, and will most lilkey have to sell the plane,  but better than being jobless.

The Mooney factory may be closed/closing, but there is new aerospace life coming to Kerrville. 
 

now that’s positive for the ex-Mooney folks. Let’s hope they get hired.

Sounds like good news...

Looks like they use the same website developer as Mooney did... a bit challenging to negotiate through...
