I bought a Mooney!

[NotarPilot]

Add me to the short but distinguished list of Mooney owners.  After a dream 8+ years in the making I finally bought my first airplane.  And after many months of deciding on an airframe I decided on a Mooney.  Seems to me like the greatest personal plane out there.  I think reality will set in later.  Here are pictures as we parked the plane before getting its prebuy done.  I'd like to thank many Mooney owners who provided me with tons of invaluable information and advice.  Not to mention the familiarization flights in a Mooney.  Thanks Dave.

Glad it worked out for you, enjoy the new plane.  Based on your decision I'd imagine you were happy with JR & Jim at Aerodyne. 

ATB, George

Steve. Congtratulations!! Hope you thoroughly enjoy this great airplane! I know you will! Now you need a hangar with a fridge for the beer!

[Cris]

Steve That looks to be a great choice!! Congradulations You should be able to get years out of that A/C without needing to put upgrade $'s into it. The avionics, paint & interior are quite impressive. You are a smart buyer. Good luck!!

Congratulations on your new "baby"!!  The 201 is such a great efficient performer.  You're going to love it.

I also know how you feel, I had that new to me airplane feeling almost 17 years ago when I bought my runout little old C model. May sound crazy but after all these years I still have that same feeling every time I jump into my mooney. 

 

Congrats, enjoy

Thanks everyone, only upgrades planned for the immediate future are shoulder harnesses and maybe some LED Nav lighting.

You got the best model!  Just run a bunch of 100LL through her and try not to hurt your face smiling all of the time.

Congratulations!  You made a great choice and you'll love your Mooney.  I still enjoy looking out almost every flight at the edge of the wing and just think about the fact that we are indeed flying.  Again, congratulations.
