To View The Magazine On-Line 
getacro.gif (712 bytes)First, you must have Adobe Acrobat Reader software installed.   This software is both FREE and simple to use.  In fact, it is used to view/read many printed documents on the web usually in the exact same format as the printed versions.  If you do not have it installed, do so now.

To Download and/or Print-Out Issues 
To download an entire issue takes time on typical modem, be patient!    Rather than open it each time you wish to read an article etc., we recommend you open the desired issue, and save it to your computer in the usual manner or print it via your browsers commands.   Be aware each magazine file is usually very large, consequently download or print times may be significantly longer than usual web pages.  Remember, you are opening or downloading an entire magazine, so be patient.

To Utilize Magazine Sponsors "Hot Ad's"
Certain sponsors or advertisers have elected to provide more information via their "Hot Display Ads" as placed in our magazine.  These ads are "hot linked" to more information.  Move your mouse over various ads and sections of the mag. etc. to determine if more information is available, and click to see more info.  When this feature is available, we encourage readers to explore these features in the on-line magazine. 

To Utilize Extra "Hot Linked" Editorial, Notices, or Articles etc
In any printed magazine, space is always an issue.  Such is not always the case when the same magazine is published on-line.  Certain stories or articles in our magazine may have additional information, photos, or interesting supporting data which is directly related to the printed story but as "paper space" was somewhat limited in the print version, we may include more "Hot Linked"  information or details here on the web-lucky you!   Be sure to explore most areas of each electronic page via your mouse, to see if additional information is available....you will be glad you did.

Editorial Policies

The primary mission of The MOA PILOT is to serve as an interesting, highly effective vehicle to promote safety, fun, and utility of Mooney aircraft while serving as a conduit between Mooney owners/enthusiasts and Mooney vendors, manufactures, suppliers, and service providers.  

M20outlinesm01.gif (1627 bytes)Many fine articles & regular professionally written columns or features including;  New M20 Friendly product reviews (via the regular column; "The Mooney Consumer"), riveting first hand accounts of how; "I learned About Flying My Mooney Because Of That", Mooney SDR's and AD's etc., Mooniac A&P Troubleshooter Reports will be covered in greater detail than can be printed in only one issue.   Therefore, some interesting magazine features and regular columns may be spread over two consecutive issues; perhaps starting in the "Open Edition" and then completed in the next months "Members Only Edition". 

We therefore urge all Mooney owners to protect your substantial investment in flying and owning your Mooney by Joining MOA and never miss an important article or feature!
