mulro767 Posted May 16, 2012 Report Posted May 16, 2012 I think i just posted some pictures of them. I was at my airport when I saw one landing.. I went over to the hanger to investigate the Mini Mooney and met Robert..He just put them both up for sale. One was a 1956 I believe and the other 1949??? Both Oshkosh winners. Really cool to see up close. Crystal Airport, MN, KMIC Quote

jackn Posted May 16, 2012 Report Posted May 16, 2012 I found this on Google Earth. They look like Mooney Mites. Not sure. Quote
Seth Posted May 17, 2012 Report Posted May 17, 2012 Are Mite control surfaces fabric or metal? Also, what is the cruise speed and fuel burn? Are they VFR only or can they be IFR certified? -Seth Quote
carusoam Posted May 18, 2012 Report Posted May 18, 2012 Expect wood and fabric... Intial design started as the ercoupe with Al's tail added to it. -a- Quote
mooneygirl Posted May 18, 2012 Report Posted May 18, 2012 We are fortunate to have about a half dozen Mooney Mites that attend Porterville Airshow, in California. They are such cool airplanes. Ed Mandibles owns the blue Mite that has one the flour bombing contest in both Porterville and Columbia, CA at Ambassador events. Fun stuff Their website: http://mooneymite.com/features.htm Quote
fantom Posted May 18, 2012 Report Posted May 18, 2012 The Kadet sitting in Maxwell's hanger is all metal. Quote
