  1. My first Mooney was a K model. Made me fall in love with the Mooney. I'm currently flying an Eagle and based in Guthrie. If you need any help with anything once you acquire your Mooney let me know. I'd be glad to help. Although it is not a mid-body I'd be more than happy to let you come out and take a look at the Eagle as well.
  2. Lightly used Sentry ADS-B Receiver for Weather and Traffic in ForeFlight with CO Monitor and 12hr Battery Life. Comes with everything pictured. ***SOLD***. If you have any questions don't hesitate to ask.
  3. Lightly used Lightspeed Zulu 3’s. Used by the occasional passenger. ***SOLD***. If you have any questions feel free to message me.
  4. Was working when removed. Comes with everything pictured. $600 plus shipping. If you have any questions feel free to private message me.
  5. These came out of my Eagle. They have light scratches but are in great condition. I could polish them for you before shipping if you would like. $150 plus shipping. If you have any questions feel free to private message me. ***SOLD***
  6. Lightspeed Tango Wireless ANR Aviation Headset Bluetooth With dual GA plugs. This headset is in great condition. Includes the controller and carrying case. Ear cups and head cushion will need replaced. ***SOLD***. If you have any questions feel free to private message me.
  7. I went from a 79 K to a 99 Screaming Eagle in 2020. I loved the K model...flew it for around 1100 hours between 2016 and 2020. The Eagle is much easier when it comes to engine management. Seemed like I was always making adjustments in cruise on the K model. Useful load is way better (1130 in my Eagle). The Eagle being a longbody and 20 years newer was nice. What swayed me toward the Eagle I purchased was the TKS. I had an unexpected encounter with ice in the K model and didn't want to be without at least some protection in the future. Both are great airplanes. An overhaul of that engine is going to be expensive but seems like there has been an adjustment made in the price to compensate for that. Below is a picture of both my K and Eagle during pre purchase for both. If you have any specific questions send me a message and I'll give you my number. We can chat it up.
  8. I only had temp problems in my K if I pulled back the power during climb out. Mine was a 231 LB with merlyn wastegate no intercooler. Take off was cowl flaps full open, full throttle (39-40 inches MP) max rpm. Left it the same for the climb. Climbing 700-1000 fpm usually kept CHT's in check. On hot days I did have to lower the nose and climb at 500 fpm to keep CHT's below 380. Between 380 and 390 were my max CHT's for all stages of flight. It did seem that I needed to constantly adjust the throttle in all phases of flight to keep the settings I wanted. That plane never was set it and forget it. In cruise it seemed like the higher the MP the cooler the engine ran so I would regularly cruise with 32-34 inches MP, 2500 rpm LOP (9.5 to 10.5 GPH). TIT in cruise was usually between 1580 and 1620. Cowl flaps were always closed during cruise below 16000 feet, in trail when above 16,000. The picture below were my settings at 15500 with cowl flaps closed.
