DaV8or Posted June 25, 2022 Report Posted June 25, 2022 Hi all, I just sold my Mooney after 12 years of ownership. It's been a great experience with no regrets. I'm just posting this to give a big shout out to Jimmy Garrison at Gmax American Aircraft. (Formerly All American Aircraft) Jimmy was super easy to work with and arranged everything including the ferry pilot to get my plane to Texas and there was no money out of pocket. All expenses are deducted from the sale. He does charge a 6-7% commission, but it is worth every penny IMO because he sold my plane fast! He also got more for my plane than I ever thought I could get myself in the usual classifieds totally making up for his commission. In addition, the work that needed to be done to satisfy the buyer was all done in Texas where shop rates are cheaper than California, so my expenses were kept low. Anyhow, I can't say enough good things about the sale, so if you have a decent Mooney that you want to sell, I highly recommend you call him. Here's what I sold, the last 1966 M20F known to still exist pretending to be a 201. One of 4 built. I have some Mooney related things to sell and or get rid of, but I'll start separate threads for those. 6 1 Quote

No regrets selling a Mooney!? The only way that can happen is upgrading to a faster Mooney! Spill the beans, what did you get? Quote

Spill the beans, what did you get? I haven't gotten anything yet, but I am shopping. My mission and flying has changed quite a lot since I bought my Mooney. I pretty much fly by myself just for fun and relaxation. No more IFR, or night even. A fair weather flyer that still loves the view. I'm looking for a Vans RV-9A I think. It is the top contender. Something like that anyhow. 2 Quote
Bryan G Posted June 26, 2022 Report Posted June 26, 2022 I had the same experience buying my Mooney from All American Aircraft (Gmax) in 2019, not one thing to complain about. She was polished with a full tank of fuel on top of everything else. I’m on his distro list for new Mooneys coming to the market even though I love mine…if I ever upgrade it will be through him. 1 Quote
jetdriven Posted June 26, 2022 Report Posted June 26, 2022 I’m curious who did your pre-buy when you bought that plane Quote
