Paul Thomas Posted March 31 Report Posted March 31 (edited) I just closed on a J Mooney that will be based in SWFL. I'm attaching the obligatory airplane and panel photos. I'll get the 2 hour insurance checkout tomorrow and then I look forward to enjoying my new, to me, airplane around and meeting other members. Happy Easter! Paul Edited March 31 by Paul Thomas 6 Quote
LANCECASPER Posted March 31 Report Posted March 31 Welcome to Mooneyspace! Best of wishes on your transition training. You probably noticed that a previous owner was on here for awhile: https://mooneyspace.com/profile/6895-n57039/ https://mooneyspace.com/search/?q=N57039&quick=1 1 Quote

Schllc Posted March 31 Report Posted March 31 Nice setup! The prop looks like it’s painted red? I’ve never seen that before, but it’s a nice touch. think I heard you on the radio Friday. I’m based at KAPF. 2 Quote

Paul Thomas Posted April 6 Author Report Posted April 6 Now that I'm checked out, I'll have to fly to the lunch group and meet some of the local pilots. I'll be based at PGD for the time being; I'm hoping to eventually get a hangar/tie down at FMY but neither are available as of now. On 3/31/2024 at 6:52 PM, Schllc said: Nice setup! The prop looks like it’s painted red? I’ve never seen that before, but it’s a nice touch. think I heard you on the radio Friday. I’m based at KAPF. It's painted to match the trim of the airplane. I'm attaching a better photo. It seems all previous owners, including the previous MooneySpace member were good caretakers. I have a couple of minor squawks that I want to address, but it went through the inspection/annual without issues. Quote
