HRM Posted December 6, 2019 Report Posted December 6, 2019 Lately the UFOs have been getting some mentions here on MooneySpace. Frankly, joining them is on my bucket list (14 years and counting, no rush!). Do we have any UFOs here flying Mooneys? I've always thought that I'd probably have to drop to a Cessgnat or LSA to make it, so I'd like some encouragement.
Hank Posted December 6, 2019 Report Posted December 6, 2019 There was Bennett with a super-modified J out in the Republik, but he hung up his goggles last year. And my former hangar neighbor who moved from a square-tail 182 that he bought two years old into a light sport (he's still there, I moved back South almost 6 years ago).
carusoam Posted December 6, 2019 Report Posted December 6, 2019 @Bennett was our most senior MS officer... Active on MS, Active in his community, Active, Active, Active... He made a plan to retire from flying, and activated... way to go, Bennet! We have many active members on MS with a plan to join the UFOs... Best regards, -a-
DonMuncy Posted December 6, 2019 Report Posted December 6, 2019 Am I supposed to be proud or disgusted that I am a member of UFO. 3 2
carusoam Posted December 6, 2019 Report Posted December 6, 2019 I’m proud of Dr. Don for picking up the mantle! It’s going to take eating properly and some exercising... but, I bet many of us can get there... Never give up.... Best regards, -a-
Andy95W Posted December 6, 2019 Report Posted December 6, 2019 Definitely proud, Don. It's terrible getting old but you’ve accomplished something that we’re all hoping to attain. Congratulations.

1964-M20E Posted December 6, 2019 Report Posted December 6, 2019 At first I thought someone got abducted while flying their Mooney.
RobertGary1 Posted December 6, 2019 Report Posted December 6, 2019 I've always heard that getting old sucks but I suppose it beats the alternative. -Robert
