After a very long and sometimes frustrating search, I bought a Mooney. 94 Ovation.  I couldn't be happier.  I am really glad I was selective.  Took the plane to Cole Aviation (service center) for the pre-buy .  Really liked that crew! Plane went thorough pre-buy as well as the owner said it would!    Went up last Sunday with a fellow Mooney driver and CFI and got some flight time and landings.  All check out.

Nothing finer than a ‘94 O...

According the book of Carusoam...

Its a pretty short book...

Easy to read...

Has a positive ending, every day...

:)
 

Way to go, other Mr. Muncy!

I think I uploaded these correctly.  Got a little more time in the plane today.  Its a beast.  I am working on getting to know the systems. I need to hook an external power source to charge the batteries so that I can familiarize myself with the avionics...and not drain the batteries.  Dual batteries 24 volt system.   Best way to accomplish that?   Just a trickle charge on the batteries?

I spoke with Joey a few weeks ago and he mentioned you.  You're basing at CNI?  

Yeah, right now I have the plane at RYY.  CNI couldn't find me a spot. I think Joe gave me your number.  Do you know if anything is available at CNI?

Oh that’s my dream plane!  I live in the NW and fly an F so winter is a little tough for flying.  I see you have TKS... do you mind telling me what your useful load is?  Is that without any tks fluid in the system?

Thanks and congrats!!

I know that there should be ramp space but not too sure on hangar space.  If anything, it will be in a group hangar.  Did you put your name on the list?

And on that note, my space will be empty a week from now.  Family trip to Destin for a week.  2 hrs each way in the J.  I'll be home in time coming back to eat lunch and mow the yard!  You're going to love Mooney.  Especially that Ovation.

Thanks!  Love the airplane.  Just getting to know the plane, including weights.  But my reality is the airplane with full fluids is a 2 place airplane, with baggage. But I knew that going in.

Thanks,  loving the airplane. I went to the airport last week.  I was told no space, even tiedown.  I would happily take a spot in a community hanger.  I did fill out the waiting list form.   If you hear of anything, please let me know. 

Thanks!
