Mooney Ceasing Production. Closes Kerrville Plant, furloughs hundreds of employees
The Kerrville Daily Times is reporting that Mooney International has ceased manufacturing operations at its Kerrville Airport factory at Kerrville Municipal Airport (KERV), Texas. In the move, a company spokesman said, the company laid off 229 employees, bringing Mooney employment down to around 90 workers. None will be producing aircraft parts, however, which is certain to concern Mooney owners. (www.planeandpilotmag.com) Más...Sort type: [Top] [Newest]
Loved my 231...nothing in GA could compare. My 1980 with its new engine, paint, and owner flies ever onward.
Always sad to see a long standing company close. But with the prices tipping close to $1M, it is really difficult to compete for such a small market share. I wish the workers best of luck in new aviation work, and that the name continues on in some fashion.
First flight in a single was an M20J. What an intro to flight!
I had a Mooney for many years. Sad day. !!!!
Very sad news !!
I instructed in them for years. Loved that airplane.
