I dropped by the Lakeland Chick-Fil-A this morning, and the airport is between it and my house.  So I take a slight detour and end up watching some practice performances pre-Sun 'n Fun.  Then there are some R/C jet performances going on (I didn't manage to get any pics).  But those are some sweet machines!


Walking a little bit farther, I see a Mooney Mite...and then proceed to see my dream Mooney.  Can someone please phone the Air Force and remind them what a mistake they made not accepting this plane!?  And why the heck are we teaching primaries in Diamonds? If there's one airplane I'd love to see MAC resurrect, it's this one.


This Texas boy is a happy camper in central FL.  I work in the aviation industry.  I live 8 minutes from an airport and in a community where many people have some connection or interest in the aviation world.  General Aviation is well respected around here and many non-pilots choose to take part in it.

Parker- I thought that Mooney Aircraft Co. had destroyed that prototype years ago. Was it sold to someone or is that the original factory A/C? What is it doing in Lakeland?

Whats' up with the top of the horizontal stabilizer on that Predator? It looks like there is a piece missing.

My understanding (And bear in mind I have never seen one in person) is that the M22 tail was an M20 basic design just extended in height. It probably will look the same unless we get a side-by-side photo.
