MIm20c Posted July 14, 2020 Report Share Posted July 14, 2020 I agree with the suggestion to turn the PPI into a full annual with 9+ months on the old one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like I have a pretty good idea of what to look for in a Mooney. But back when I was buying my first Mooney, I could have spent six weeks looking over that airplane and flying it every day. But I still wouldn't have learned as much about it as I did from an hour on the phone with Don Maxwell who had just completed the pre-buy and a through test flight. I talk with a lot of Mooney buyers on the phone. And I'd say most wouldn't know what to look for if they were standing next to it, or sitting in the left seat. And there's nothing wrong with that, everyone starts somewhere. But for those buyers, having someone like DMax, JD, Kendrick, etc. do the pre-buy, and someone like @mike_elliott, @kortopates, @KLRDMD, @LANCECASPER, @Marauder, DMax, or someone as knowledgeable, test fly the Mooney, would be much more valuable than seeing it themselves. Of course if you can go see it/fly it, great! But the other way works fine as well. Clearly since @gsxrpilot moved to from Texas to Colorado he has been smoking something other than brisket. To include my name in with the caliber of the others in that post makes me lose all confidence in him. 1 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Yes, no question @M20Doc should be on the list. In fact @Yooper Rocketman should be as well. The list is long with good people who know way more about Mooneys than I do, and certainly than I did when I was looking for my first one. I'd have been right to have taken the advice of any of them and bought sight unseen. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
