MooneyMike Posted July 22, 2021 Report Posted July 22, 2021 I live in Bardstown and based out of 6I2, Lebanon Springfield in North Central Kentucky. Mike N201XF Quote
Shmoo Posted July 23, 2021 Report Posted July 23, 2021 Hey! I've had a J model in escrow for a few weeks. Will be based at OWB when/if it arrives and making regular trips LOU, LEX, DVK. Quote
rakesb Posted July 23, 2021 Report Posted July 23, 2021 I enjoyed seeing your references to Bowling Green, Bardstown, Lebanon, and Springfield. All very familiar places. I took my PP check ride at Bowling Green. Completed a rental checkout in Bardstown. I was born and raised in Lebanon. Took a flight review at 6I2, but have never flown my Mooney into 6I2. On my way there one night from Missouri, but made a precautionary landing in Owensboro. Next morning, continued on to KAAS instead of 6I2. N6094Q is hangared and “pickled” at KTBN while I serve in Japan for at least another year. Miss her almost as much as I miss children and grandchildren. Finished paying off the loan on her last month. I fly an Aero Club 180 HP C-172 out of Yokota Air Base to stay active and current, but it’s nothing like owning and flying your own Mooney. Thank you for the opportunity to briefly walk down memory lane. 1 Quote
KNorton Posted July 26, 2021 Report Posted July 26, 2021 Hi Mike, I soloed at Bardstown many years ago. Based my first Mooney at Bardstown and later Bowman. My dad was on the air board in Bardstown for many years. I still have family in Shelbyville and get down there a couple of times a year. Keith Quote

The museum there is well worth the trip. 1 Quote
daytonabch04 Posted July 26, 2021 Report Posted July 26, 2021 My Bravo is at EKX, however, it'll be moving soon when I move for the military. Hate to give up such a great hangar there. Quote
MooneyMike Posted July 26, 2021 Author Report Posted July 26, 2021 Hey y'all, sorry for the delayed response, I was at Barber Motorsports Park all weekend. Nice to hear from everyone! Hangars are at a premium everywhere it seems and I was happy to get one this close to home. E-town, Bardstown and Lebanon - Springfield host fly in breakfasts each month so put one of them on your 'gotta do' list, it would be nice to meet! Mike Quote
Drew M20E Posted July 26, 2021 Report Posted July 26, 2021 Good morning Mike, I am based in Hopkinsville at HVC. Just outside Ft. Campbell. Quote
Bartman Posted July 27, 2021 Report Posted July 27, 2021 I’m in East TN most of the time, but still spend time in KY and hangar at PBX. I spent 2 years back and forth from Danville and had a hangar at DVK. Quote
