LA Mooney instructor

[Andrewmx2955]

Hi everyone, last year I bought an M20K and started overhauling everything on it, and this week it's going to be ready to fly again. Does anyone know an instructor in the LA area that I can get a high performance endorsement from and do a Mooney transition with?

He's in San Diego, but I enjoyed working with Paul @kortopates

He owns a M20K 252/Encore, so I think you'll be in good hands!

Andrew,

Where are you located?

+1 for Mr. K... not only does he know flying Mooneys deeply as a Mooney specific CFII... he also really knows turbo engine ops at a high level....

Deep and high... that’s a pretty wide range of knowledge... 

He also has an M20K as his personal ship...

Best regards,

Yep, Paul Kortopates. You’ll enjoy the knowledge and experience he provides.

Just for clarity, and as @carusoam asks above, may want to post your location.  Hard to tell if you're in Los Angeles or Louisiana.
