Could you check out Flight Deck Forums, Tech Log "Mooney M20J (1976) 200BHP TIPS & HINTS" (http://www.pprune.org/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=76151) ?

I would like some feed back from experienced Mooney Pilots.

See Mooney Type Here (http://svc056.bne077u.server-web.com/Mooneyj.htm)

Thanks

Without doubt, the greatest fund of Mooney knowledge will be found by subscribing to the Mailing Lists at

http://www.aviating.com/mooney/subscribe.html

Be prepared for 50-100 postings daily, concerning operation, maintenance, hints, tips, factory news etc., etc.. There are a couple of regular Australian contributors, so you won't be lonely.

At the moment, we are getting regular messages from Bob Kromer, ex Mooney Factory Test-Pilot.

Also, consider joining AMPA, the Australian Mooney Pilots Association. This very active group is composed of about half the Mooney owners in Australia. It has an excellent group of members and holds regular fly-in events as well as "PPPs", Pilot Proficiency Program courses. These are based on (and are improved versions of) the advanced flying courses developed by MAPA in the US. These courses will teach you everything you could possibly wish to know about operating your Mooney.

Thanks for all your helpful information regarding Mooney Technics. As soon as my instructor is back on deck from the Christmas break I will put them to practise, especially my circuit procedures. :) :) :D

Thanks for your posts & emails. I have mastered the Mooney finally especially in slowing it down to land.

My next issue is working out the Aircraft Loading, C of G etc and performance data/sheets.

:D :D :D

I was just wondering if anyone knows of an experienced (>200 Hrs) Mooney instructor in the Sydney area. :)
