FJC Posted February 20, 2021 Report Posted February 20, 2021 Hi everyone. I can finally stop kicking tires and truly be part of the club. Eternal thanks goes to Richard Simile and Don Kaye for their expert guidance and sticking with me despite my numerous questions! I could not have done this without them both. I am extremely pleased with this purchase. Now I need to build time and experience. Another thank you goes out to others in MS who answered questions and helped me home my selection. I hope I can pay back. Freddy 11
carusoam Posted February 20, 2021 Report Posted February 20, 2021 Way to go Freddy! Those are two awesome Mooniacs to work with...several decades of experience combined or apiece... Do you have a CO monitor? Not needed, but good luck to have... Best regards, -a-
FJC Posted February 20, 2021 Author Report Posted February 20, 2021 No CO monitor currently but will invest 1
MooneyMitch Posted February 20, 2021 Report Posted February 20, 2021 Yippee fricken doodle........... congratulations!!! Enjoy the ride.
V1VRV2 Posted February 20, 2021 Report Posted February 20, 2021 The guys and gals on this message board are indispensable assets to the Mooney community! Without this place we’re just guys with planes! I found the same generous help when I was looking for my Ovation 2 this past summer. Welcome Ovation brotha from anotha motha! 1
MarkD34M Posted February 20, 2021 Report Posted February 20, 2021 Congratulations! Can you share the N number? She looks very nice.
Mufflerbearing Posted February 20, 2021 Report Posted February 20, 2021 Congrats! The O's are amazing planes! Enjoy your plane and this amazing community. Being a part of this community, sharing your experiences good and bad, is how to give back. 2

Jeff_S Posted February 23, 2021 Report Posted February 23, 2021 Having an Ovation is a lot like having sex...after every flight you get that "post-O glow!" 2 3

Congratulations on the purchase.

carusoam Posted February 24, 2021 Report Posted February 24, 2021 Niko, It gets even funnier when you have met the MSers and know them a bit better... Best regards, -a-

They must be doing 6 figure+ upgrades and 5 figures are way down on the list? 1 1
StevenL757 Posted February 24, 2021 Report Posted February 24, 2021 Yeah, my shop always calls back their clients (albeit a few days’ delay sometimes when they get really busy), but as of late, they’re running behind by a bit longer. They get about 3 to 6 quote requests a day and are booked out currently until June for any work expected to take longer than 1 to 3 days.
