SkyBound Posted October 5, 2023 Report Posted October 5, 2023 Dan and I have arrived in Tampa and are beginning the set-up for Mooney Summit IX! We have an amazing program planned for this year! If you have not registered, it's not too late to jump in your Mooney and come join us. Also check out the Silent Auction this year - you do not have to be present to win. --Alex 11 Quote

mike_elliott Posted October 5, 2023 Report Posted October 5, 2023 I've seen pics of the event space and these guys really raised the bar this year. I am thrilled the next gen Mooney owners have stepped up to continue to make the Mooney Summit one of the premier GA events. 4 Quote

mike_elliott Posted October 8, 2023 Report Posted October 8, 2023 Congrats to Alex Gertsen and Dan Bass for putting on such a superb, professional event. The speakers were outstanding, the food exceeded everyone's expectations, the facilities were absolutely first rate. Having Frank Crawford from Mooney give us the "inside scoop" on what was going on at Mooney was quite a nice surprise. Well done! The Mooney Summit couldnt be in better hands. 5 Quote
Pinecone Posted October 9, 2023 Report Posted October 9, 2023 Agreed. There were a few glitches, but nothing show stopping or even really annoying. But they bit off a HUGE bite. And, in general, it went perfectly. My first one, but it will not be my last. 3 Quote

We will start the planing process for next year in a few weeks, I'm really looking forward to it! It was great meeting you, as well as everyone else. Can't wait until next year. Cheers, Dan 3 Quote
