MAPA Pilot Proficiency Oklahoma

[chrisk]

I'm thinking about attending the MAPA PPP program in Oklahoma City at the end of the month.  Just wondering if anyone else is planning to attend?

Chrisk, if you've never attended a MAPA PPP, you're in for a treat. They are Mooney specific, with instructors that are proficient in your airplane, and treat you in a non threatening way. It's a good event!

I too am planning on attending being I am a newbe Mooney Rocket owner. I have heard good & not worth it... The not worth it came from a commercial corporate pilot who was sent by the new Mooney owner... He was also the CFII who checked me out in the Rocket... Absolute by the numbers very thoughtful very through very strict type instructor.. The man I bought the plane from says he goes every year & said don't miss it .. I feel I could learn from it as I am not a professional pilot, so I'm going Lord Willing!

I plan on attending... Never get enough Mooney specific training.

Anyone know what time the activities finish up on Sunday?  Should one plan to stay Sunday night? I am assuming one should plan to arrive Thursday the 30th.

I have found this document online, I have already used portions of it (Important Numbers for Rocket).  I don't know if they use this or something like this but I plan to call tomorrow and get the times and any advance information I can.

After getting a kick start from this forum I called the following day of my post on the 20th, and Trey told me the Ok City training was full!!  Today I received an email from Ralph Semb stating they could fit me in!!  So we jumped on the opportunity, Lord willing here we come.

Thanks to Lela, Trey & Ralph for their extra efforts!

Also another cool opportunity that I learned of today and that I plan to participate in while at the OK City training:

 

Some if not all of the group are going to the FAA facility and all take part in the High Altitude Chamber!

 

I tell you, these Mooney people are just alright!!

 

Hope to see and meet some of you Mooney folks there!

 

Rocket On...
