My last flight in N3461N, Mooney M20F

 

Getting ready to put the plane out for the last time.

 

All checked out and ready to head out to Manning, SC. for the pre-buy.

The panel I always wanted, 41 more miles to go.

You can almost see it.

Made it safe and sound KMNI.

Fred and Bob managed to get it in the hangar, 

so it didn't have to stay outside.

One last look inside.

Whiteplains Soup-Off - Tonight at 6:00 PM 2/10/2024

 

12 years ago, Jean and I started the annual SC99 soup-off fund raiser/fellowship to support our local community. I don’t have the exact numbers, but we have raised thousands of dollars which has been given to support local food banks and help pay lunch debts in several Gilbert schools. It been a great experience hosting this event, but the time has come to hand this event off. Kimberly Brennan and Jeanette Simpson have stepped up to the plate to continue this community event. I am extremely grateful to them for doing this and will continue to support them by providing tables and chairs etc. Please join us tonight as we continue a long-standing tradition. Thanks to all to have supported us throughout the years!  Soup-off starts at 6:00pm at Ken Plesser’s hangar.

In gratitude,
Mike and Jean
