Mooney swap

[alun]

Hi,

i am planning on coming to Florida to do my IR in February for 10 days or so, and was interested to know if anyone would be interested in leasing me a mooney for a couple of weeks, or as an alternative, swapping the use of their US based mooney for the use of mine if you fancied a European tour this summer.

Alun.

Where in FL will you be?

not sure as yet.  any recommendations for good schools? was hoping to book on to an "IR in 10 days course"

[M20BE]

One of the best is Chandler flight school, Peter wrote about it http://www.peter2000.co.uk/aviation/index.html

I'll look into some, and ask around.

I don't know of any off hand....I haven't gone through any of the schools...

I might be willing to have you use my M20F, if you chose to fly with the Instructor that I used for my PPL and IFR.  

The plane is a '68 M20F with a 430W, HSI and AP, and is based out of St. Petersburg FL (KSPG).  

How many hours do you have in your Mooney?

hi mike,

thank you for the offer.  

I have only about 1 hour in my mooney (I am waiting to collect it post inspection).  I have now found an FAA flight school in France that is only a 45m flight away and is split into a couple of week long courses. 

I would still be willing to do a "holiday" swap if anyone was interested in heading over to Europe next summer, although I can't see me going anytime before this time next year.
