Oscar Avalle Posted July 3, 2013 Report Posted July 3, 2013 Really nice video. I liked the idea of putting the camera closer to the fuselage... looks great.

thinwing Posted July 24, 2013 Report Posted July 24, 2013 Hey I noticed a straight in to Golden..makes sense due to terrain but skydiver outfit flying overgross 182 gets pushed out of shape when you do.... Quote
The201pilot Posted July 30, 2013 Author Report Posted July 30, 2013 That 182 of the skydive outfit had a cockpit fire that same day just before i arrived...a young pilot, maybee 20...he glided 'er in without problem or radio... Quote
Robert C. Posted August 4, 2013 Report Posted August 4, 2013 Nice! I have a cousin in Calgary and my daughter and her husband (and our grandson) just moved to Vanderhoof (west of Price George) so crossing the Canadian Rockies has been on my mind quite a bit these past few months (live in Connecticut, USA). With the normally aspirated Mooney do you often have to wait out the weather? Would you recommend a turbo for anyone taking a few trips a year into the mountains? Cheers, Robert Quote
The201pilot Posted August 7, 2013 Author Report Posted August 7, 2013 Thanks, I did a second trip over "the rocks" as opposed to through the valleys from calgary to creston b.c a couple weeks ago...i was about 12.5 on the way there and 13.5 on the way back, both vfr... I do not need to get anywhere that desprately that i cannot wait out the weather. But on the other hand, there would be nothing more i'd rather have these days than a 252...just to have the option of being in the FL's To me its 2 totaly different types of flying...lower/slower, almost a lazy afternoon or day of sightseeing and taking in all or as much as there is to see, and the second merely climbing above everything until about 50 miles out and dropping into an approach... I don't think anyone "needs" the turbo...but if i had to make my first purchase again, i'd do nothing different. However, if you do find yourself flying out "high/hot/heavy" a turbo might be the way to go... my 201 suits the mission i ask of her without question. Because of the experience i've gained "learning" to fly a mooney with my 201 i feel much more confident looking forward to my next purchase which will be a 252.. Quote
Robert C. Posted August 7, 2013 Report Posted August 7, 2013 OK, that is helpful. Thanks, Robert Quote
