Mooneymite Posted February 25, 2012 Report Posted February 25, 2012 Mooneyspace is a great resource for Mooney owners, but I did a forum search on the M-18 Mooneymite and did not come up with much. The M-18 is "THE REAL MOONEY", the M-20 series is just a bunch of wann-be spam cans..........okay, I'm just throwing that out there for flame bait. I love my C. However, I'm interested to know how many present, or former Mite flyers there are reading this board. Anybody? I once owned N70DV and I noticed it up for sale again on WWW.MOONEYMITE.COM. It was probably the most fun airplane I've ever owned. 125 mph on 4 gph. Talk about efficiency. It's "THE REAL MOONEY"! .

Mooneymite Posted February 25, 2012 Author Report Posted February 25, 2012 Neat! Al Mooney had a hand in many designs which didn't actually bear his name. If you look at the Culver Cadet, it's vintage Al Mooney sans up-right stabilizer. His wooden wings are a marvel to look at.... Al Mooney's son lives in Atlanta. I've spoken to him; he's a real gentleman....I suspect his dad was too.

Mooneymite Posted February 25, 2012 Author Report Posted February 25, 2012 Does he fly? Only on Delta, as far as I know.

Parker_Woodruff Posted February 27, 2012 Report Posted February 27, 2012 I haven't flown one, but I'd love to.
