Malibu Owners Convention set

By Janice Wood · July 3, 2009 ·

The Malibu/Mirage Owners & Pilots Association (MMOPA) will hold its 19th annual convention Oct. 28-31 at the JW Marriott Desert Ridge Resort in Scottsdale, Ariz. The convention is open to all MMOPA members, vendors and aviation enthusiasts.

The MMOPA convention has a long legacy of providing operators of Piper Malibu, Mirage, Matrix, Meridian, and JetPROP with programs presented by industry experts on safety, operations and maintenance. Attendees also gain from the experience of other PA46 owners and trainers, which makes this gathering particularly attractive to prospective Malibu owners looking for objective information about the ownership experience prior to making a purchase decision.

The MMOPA Convention’s vendor exhibits offer attendees the chance to see all the latest innovations in new aircraft, avionics, accessories, STC modifications, training and more.

This year’s convention will feature increased Piper factory participation, including the opportunity to see the PiperJet prototype up close and get the factory perspective on operations and maintenance.

Cost is $499, which includes all academic sessions, receptions, and meals. Special discounted rates at the Desert Ridge Resorts are available for attendees as well.

For more information: 843-785-9358 or www.mmopa.com
