FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Oshkosh, WI – July 30, 2013 – Year after year, friends come back to EAA AirVenture to share their love for aviation. Some friends have just started in this new tradition and others have been doing it since AirVenture’s inception.

Our friends Jeff “Rocco” Emanuel and Jeff Barrette have been a staple at Oshkosh for many years and never leave without paying a visit to Aviation Insurance Resources (AIR) in Building A, Booth 1141. Dubbed the “AIR-Bros” by their friends at AIR, the hangar chat quickly turned to a lasting friendship. Later, the two best friends would become AIR’s favorite ad on the back cover of Aviators Hot Line.

While discussing how many insurance companies often focus on free hats and giveaways instead of quality customer service, AIR remembered one of their favorite photos of the AIR-Bros wearing hats donned with collectable windsocks and pins. This fun photo quickly became a new backdrop at their Oshkosh booth and a new ad.

Following a fun-filled autograph session on Monday, the AIR-Bros have agreed to return to the AIR booth on Wednesday, July 31st at 11:30AM for a second session. Stop by the AIR booth in Building A, #1141. Everyone is welcome and free copies of Aviators Hot Line will be available for the Bros to sign.

Shimer has been flying since 1979 and the Piper Cub quickly became one of his favorites. He has flown over 50 models of aircraft, including over 300 hours in Piper Cubs. He was excited to gain more Cub time during Sentimental Journey.

“I got to fly a 1936 Taylor J-2 with a Single Blade Prop,” explained Shimer. “I also flew the 1944 Taylorcraft DCO-65 L2-M in the Bomb drop.”

The Sentimental Journey Fly-in also featured educational forums, static displays, food vendors, exhibitors, flying contests, poker run, local fly-out destinations, camping, movies, airplane and helicopter rides, and live entertainment, featuring the Alabama Boys.

“I then was invited to announce as a comedian as “Forrest Gump” in the Alabama Boys with Greg Koontz Airshows on Friday and Saturday,” added Shimer.

Mooney Aircraft Insurance

Monday, July 1st, 2013

Mooney Aircraft InsuranceChristopher Wolbert, Regional Vice President of AIR completed his instrument rating in a Mooney twenty years ago. Despite the time that has passed, Mooney aircraft remain one of his favorite aircraft manufacturers.

“Until that point, I had completed most of my pilot training in Cessna Aircraft. The Mooney was a new and exciting experience. The aircraft’s additional speed combined with instrument training made my training challenging, but rewarding.” Chris remembers.

Founded in 1929 by Al Mooney in Wichita, Kansas, the Mooney Airplane Company has carved its place in aviation history because of its dedication to performance and innovation. Mooney has always focused on producing the highest-performing, safest and most efficient aircraft on the market. It is this focus that has allowed Mooney to set several aviation records, including:

  1. First pressurized single-engine, piston-powered aircraft (M22 Mustang).
  2. Fastest transcontinental flight in a single-engine, piston-powered production aircraft (M20K 231).
  3. First production aircraft to achieve 200 mph on 200HP (M20J 201).
  4. Several altitude records (M20K 231).
  5. First single-engine, power-control certified (FADEC) in the U.S. (M20L Porsche).
  6. Fastest piston-powered aircraft currently in production (M20M DX single).
  7. First single-engine aircraft certified for flight into known icing conditions (M20M DX w/TKS anti-icing system).
  8. More than 130 world speed records.
  9. First single-engine retractable to achieve 237 KTS (M20).
  10. And More!

Mooney aircraft combine legendary speed, robust rate-of-climb, rock-solid safety and security, innovative technology, hand-built precision craftsmanship, and unmatched value.

The Mooney Airplane Company – which has delivered more than 11,000 aircraft worldwide, a fleet that has amassed more than 40 million hours of flight – currently sells three models of the M20: Ovation2 GX, Ovation3 and Acclaim.
