Well since this about ADSB,,, I saw this , what do you folks think about it? http://www.marvgolden.com/ilevil-2-sw-portable-ads-b-gps-ahrs.html?utm_source=newsletter&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=june_specials_2015

Well,,, I have never heard of a Radio that wouldnt get the proper signal unless the plane was Tipped or pointed in just the Right WAY!!! That GS should work even if youre flying upside down and back words, Oh, and on FIRE!!! You just gotta have a screwed up antenna!!!

This has been fun for me... I enjoy the math.. Folks often say that short Mooneys,,, and Cherokees,, arent 4 place planes,, but,,,, My mission, if I had friends, and wanted to travel very far, might be Seattle to Reno! 700 sm, in your C, at 158 = 4.43 hr x 9gph +1 hr reserve = 48.9 gal,,, = 293 lbs, plus me and my faa 170 lbs friend, our 2 pretty, petite 110 lbs wives + 116 lbs of baggage = 970 lbs! thats non stop to Reno in 4.43 hr! But,, Nobody wants to sit that long,,, the girls are gonna need to pee!!!! Oh yea,, and have lunch.... Sooo with that all in mind,,,,, I would add , that the Only Good reason for the G,, is back seat leg room!!!! Lets go to Reno again,,, but not in your C,,,, the possible G instead.... With a pee and lunch stop... 350 sm at 147 = 2.38 hr x 9gph = 1 hr reserve = 30.43 gal = 182 lbs, plus me and my faa 170 lbs friend, our pretty, petite 110 lbs wives + 118 lbs of baggage = 860 lbs!!! Notice, your C and the G both have lost 80 lbs useful load in their old age? But the G will still go the right distance with 4 folks and bags,,, that need to pee, and have lunch!! I and my my friend wouldnt mind stretching our legs too,, but we dont complain... Think of the baggage you could carry in a "one stop' trip to Reno... On a related but kinda non topic note, folks should notice,,,, that folks selling Gs Always! price them at the same level as a comparable F!!! P.S. An over weight, and cramped E could do the same straight through flight in 4.4 hr,, but with only 45 lbs of baggage... OTOH,,, An over weight F could do the same straight through trip as your C or the E in more comfort in 4.49 hr! and carry 164 lbs of baggage!!! And you know? An over weight G could make the straight through trip too? In 4.8 hr,,, But it would gross out,,, 11... lbs over with No baggage...... Do you realize that the fastest Mooney only beats the slowest Mooney on the straight through flight to Reno by,,,,, 23!!!!! minutes?????? I think that is 8 percent!! But the girls still need to pee,,, and have lunch!!! And their is that leg stretching thing,,, we dont complain about..... Also, consider,, Over haul of an O-360 is much Cheaper than the same on an IO-360,, really!!! Soooo in the overall scheme of all the things,,, the M20 C,,, is the Best value in a Mooney!!! Especially if you are a truly,,, Cheep Bastard! just my 17 cents...

Well,, Starting with the G test article, and referring to this site, http://www.pilotfriend.com/aircraft%20performance/Mooney/46.htm the G is 11 kts slower than the C. and is stuck with 50lbs lower gross. even with 50lbs more gross it would probably still climb 57fpm less than the C. and the F is 4kts slower than an E, even though the F has 165lbs more gross. the E should have the same gross as the F and still climb 92fpm more, maybe a little less. the F has a useful load of 1100lbs. the E is 975lbs, but if it had the upped gross it would have a useful load of 1140lbs,, and still the most speed. the C has a useful load of 1050lbs, and second fastest speed. the G useful load is only 940lbs (really not too bad), but if the gross was upped to same as C, useful load would be 990lbs. it would still be slowest of all, but would it be slower/slower?

it is in trade a plane too,,, http://www.trade-a-plane.com/detail/2078401.html

Ive always thought that planes flown in very cold places should have a cable actuated flap to control the cooling air inlet in the nose. That would allow for proper CHTs and oil temp. Many folks fight to keep these cool enough, but sometimes too much cooling is not a gooder thing.

Well,,, Pretend that the nearest airport is 40 minutes away. Do you want to own a plane soooo much that it is worth that drive, to keep it in a hanger? if no,, dont buy,,, if yes,, Get on the Waiting list at your home drome NOW! Go buy an airplane! A Mooney!

Was the Toga,, a Torbo? Ive heard of "Torbos" getting Jet fueled... Cause it says it on the cowl... Think it was in Flying mag,, "I Learned about flying from that".. I asked for a fueling for a 150 once while I went to eat... I saw out the window as the lineman filled the plane next to me. I would have checked anyway,, but I already knew I didnt get any gas, they had to do it again!

Air space restrictions! Asking for and flying IFR approaches, in VFR, chances to learn. Its been 26 years since I was active,, I have an opportunity to sit on a ground school at my home drome! Ill make time for that.

Wowwie!!! WhatchatalkinaboutWillis??? Is it in class? Or is it not? Fastest? Not a Cessna,,, Not a REALPiper,,,... Not a Bellanca!! Super or otherwise... A new Mooney Aclaim! Or go to the wayback machine,,,, Really,,, way back... and check out A nother Al Mooney design,,, A Piper Al Mooney Comanche ,, 400!! the viking is an over powered dinosaur,,, sooo thats nice. We all know that a Lancer will beat the pants off ANY new , or old Production plane made today!!

Soo,,, many questions and answers. ive read it,, twice,.. Thank you all out!!

Dont do That!! Dont change tanks Just before take off,,, or just before landing!! You should decide early on, which tank you prefer for take off or landing well before you do Either! Then run on that tank for a Good Long time before it matters!

I dont even know what Im talking about,,,, BUT!!! Dont EVER FLOOD your engine on purpose!!! The chance of a flooded engine start is probably less than a FIRE!!!

You may miss the Real point of turbo,,, it is Not just sea level power we are looking at. It is Density Altitude! Warm day are worse than cool ones,,, HOT days are Even Worserer! A turbo removes the poorer performance on warm and Hot And,, Hi altitude performance! Of coarse it does cost gas..

Just for your info,,, see the May Mooney Flyer for an ad for a project plane in Texas,, hasnt flown since 1989... hangered, want offers.

I dont have a Mooney, a plane, or a home base, but Bremerton Nat. is closest to me @ 7.5 mi... Anywhoooo there is a 75 M20 F tied down there for at least the last month. It is N7452V,,, I looked it up, it belongs in Colorado, and some words to the effect that they have notified the owner 3,,, times to renew his registration!

Bet that was fun and instructional! Did mention Fun? I got my PPL out of Bremerton National back in 78, live 7 mi SW on the Canal... At what speed did the stall break with power off? Did you use some flaps for your landings? 75 over the #s,,, what speed when the wheels squeaked on? I think you were a little fast..

So far this thread had a gear up go around from both, 601,, and an amphib... now you say "In my case",,, does this meen that you did it too? Im intrigued,,, tell me more.

Well,,,, I always like these money mistakes... That amount is 3/4 of 1 cent!

Well,,,, NO... I dont think that is ACME threads,,, I am sure it is a Recirculating Ball Bearing Actuation rod! The Black square block should be where the balls are,, does it come apart in half?

No prob.... Rent a Sky hook. Lift the broke Cluster. Roll in a non F'd plane. Lower the F'd Cluster. Problem solved. Part out the F'd plane and cluster, Keep the one that isnt F'd..... did I get that right???

Yea,,, stranger thing happen... Piper was too busy building planes to design a ,,,,, Flag Ship New Single to compete with Bonanza........ Al Mooney drew a pic for them and Piper changed it a little, then they HPd it up,,,, then they HPd it up some more,,,, finally they put 400 horses in the nose,,, Al Mooney showed them how,, But Mooney still hasent caught up to what Piper did!! In the 60s.......

I have read all the responses to the OPs ideals for a plane with better protection on flights that may need icing protection, soooo I offer this for talking points to come.... 1981 MOONEY M20K 231 • $132,500 • PRICE REDUCED • 1981 Mooney M20K 231 N97353 w/ the Trophy 252 upgrade. 3628 TT A/F. 100 SMOH by Mena Aircraft Engines w/ New TCM Cylinders.

too much Comanche romance? you do know that Al Mooney was asked to design it,,, as Piper Co. was too busy to draw another airplane!!! do you notice how similar it is to a C or G?
