As usual, I post a year end survey to see how much we have flown for the year - I realize there are a few days left . . .

Due my Mooney being down for getting a new propeller, I haven't flown it since early August.  Otherwise I would have topped 100 hours in my Mooney.  I increased my overall time and flew less Mooney hours unfortunately.

I did fly a lot for Open Air this year in Cirrus SR22's.  Also, I rented one a few times for planned trips (like Mooney Summit).  Over 200 hours in SR22s this year.  

I also earned my Multi Commercial this year and have logged over 25 hours of multi.

I love Aviation and am thankful to have the chance to fly.

This was a great year for flying.  I finished the IR that I started in 1983 and flew a total of 123 h, all in our 1967 Mooney Mark 21.  This happened in 92 flights, the longest of which was 4.2h.   Flew her to Dalton, GA, today for her annual and some new shock disks.  Looking forward to a 'bouncier' 2020!    Happy New Year y'all!!!!

I had just over 150 hours in 2019.

Highlights:

Exumas in March

Nantucket- June

Oshkosh

West Coast Trip- Sedona, Monterey, San Juan Islands

Also did some Angel Flights which were awesome!  Hope to fly more in 2020!

I bought my plane at the end of 2018 and in 2019 had 90.8 hours.  A little less than my goal of the "owned" 120 hours threshold.  48 flights, so average flight length 2.5 hours.  This is what the Mooney was made for!

 

Most exciting flight was definitely flying into OSH.   Was glad I had a relatively low first annual costs from DMax.  :)

This year was pretty light for me. Only 120.2 hours across 87 flights. I'll try to do better in 2020.

Paul, that sounds like a good New Year's resolution: "This year I vow to fly more."  I'll second that. 

I want to do three long cross countries.   I've talked with my co-pilot about trying to touch both shores in one trip.  Florida to the  Pacific Northwest and back via Arizona would be one.   I think I'll have a trip to Wisconsin.  We do plan to visit Gettysburg and Yorktown sometime soon (weekend trips).

Enough that my insurance only went up $30.00.    I will take that as a win.

I just got my renewal. Mine went down $166. I actually chose to increase hull coverage so I'm only paying a little more than $100 less.
