Lptoro Posted March 3, 2021 Report Posted March 3, 2021 Anyone have a suggestion on getting a prebuy for an Ovation in South Florida? Any help would be most appreciated! Quote
carusoam Posted March 3, 2021 Report Posted March 3, 2021 There is a list around here of favorite Mooney mechanics in Florida... If you prefer the MSC route... find Jake in Daytona... If you like the key guy to be the name of the business... PJ or Phil Jimenez is probably next... If the plane was last serviced by one of these guys... it is always a good idea to take it to another person... Where is the plane now? Who did its last annual? Pp thoughts only, -a- Quote

Healthpilot Posted March 4, 2021 Report Posted March 4, 2021 I used Premier in Ft. Lauderdale. Probably a bit more expensive but very detail oriented. 1 Quote

I thought they found everything important, which is what you want on a prebuy. It's been 8 months since, the plane is in for its annual now, and there hasn't been anything surprising I didn't already know about or expect, knock on wood. The only things that need fixing that weren't on the prebuy squawk list have been quoted a grand total of about $500 in labor to fix. I'll take that in a prebuy every time. 2 Quote
