This is one of the things I plan on doing with mine. Good on you.

Lol!

I was excited about Mooneys, especially when I read that quote about Mooney being 6’5” and “built himself an airplane”. The cabin width was real tight for me though as a big and tall.

I like the idea of sub 10gph, but I live in NorCal with Tahoe up the hill. Plus being big, I’m focused on the 22- just reading an article about the value of the 20 though. I’m renting 160hp 172’s right now so...like I said above, there’s no trust fund or side business that’s gonna fund this.

Apology for the Necro post, but I’m literally asking myself this exact question. I’m looking to buy in the next year or two after I rent for a while and regain my GA feel. I’ve mentally gone the gamut from 172 to 182, to M20J for economical speed, to the reality that I’m big and most of my...

Apology for the necro thread with this post, but I moved to Folsom late last year and now getting back into general aviation. Renting out of SAC, and Cameron Park. I’m also starting the process of looking at buying a plane- a year away still, maybe two considering Covid, but I’ve been surprised...
