pilot716 Posted May 19, 2012 Report Posted May 19, 2012 Its been a long 2 1/2 months but my custom design is finally on N2201! just a few details(mooney decal on tail, mooney lettering on doors, black wing walk) and then the engine gets put back on after its repair. I have put some photos in my photo gallery, thank you to all who sent scheme design suggestions in February.
jezzie Posted May 19, 2012 Report Posted May 19, 2012 Your design is great which paint shop did you use?
pilot716 Posted May 19, 2012 Author Report Posted May 19, 2012 I used Ken Reese, KD Aviation at N87, I think it is worth every penny. He worked with me when I presented the design which I created myslef using various othere schemes..His attention to detail makes it worth every penny. I have seen other designs with the sweep lines that were obvioulsy not done coreectly but his work is perfect. Highly recommended. we visited the shop once a week, to watch the progress.

bnicolette Posted May 19, 2012 Report Posted May 19, 2012 Looks just awesome guys!! I really like the design. Kudos and congratulations. That is my ultimate dream for my airplane someday.
Guest Posted May 19, 2012 Report Posted May 19, 2012 Sure is one good looking Mooney ! I'd be very proud.
sleepingsquirrel Posted May 19, 2012 Report Posted May 19, 2012 Looks great ! I love the paint scheme.
MooneyMitch Posted May 19, 2012 Report Posted May 19, 2012 That's a beauty. Nothing quite as fun as new paint on your Mooney!
Skybrd Posted May 19, 2012 Report Posted May 19, 2012 Great paint job. I also like the rounded windows, wish mine had them. Hope you don't get any fuel leaks. Enjoy your newly paint bird.
mooneyman Posted May 19, 2012 Report Posted May 19, 2012 Great choice of colors! They did an excellent job. Shadowing on numbers is perfect!
Cabanaboy Posted May 19, 2012 Report Posted May 19, 2012 Very nice, she is definitely going to turn some heads on the ramp!

Cris Posted May 20, 2012 Report Posted May 20, 2012 I'm glad to see that you were as pleased with Ken Reece as I was. He really does do very nice work. It also helps that he is close enough for you to have it touched up as required. The design show a lot of effort and I'll be looking forward to seeing the plane and you guys at the next fly in. Congrats.

co2bruce Posted May 20, 2012 Report Posted May 20, 2012 I'm sooo jealous! Thats a beautiful paint job, and scheme. The color choice is outstanding. Looks way better that anything that came out of the factory. Mine looks boring now, thanks.
