More for short hops (400 miles or less) with one-two pax, or if pops has the Malibu out. Grass fields would be a fun/new experience that I would want to do, and ifr is an important one to me. I know most of the old mooneys don't have fiki which is fine, but ifr is a must to me. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thanks Seth, that's more than I've learned researching and it's very helpful in my hunt for a mooney! Looking at the all American aircraft stock I see some Rangers, but depending on who you ask there aren't any real clear specs on them. Do any of you have experience with them (speed, fuel, maint. Etc)? What is different about a ranger versus a regular c? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thanks for uploading them! Good mechanics are hard to find, where'd you find yours? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thanks, if you have pictures of what to look for that'd be fantastic, how much was your paint job/where'd you get it done just out of curiosity? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I live in Austin Texas, and own a Malibu based in Georgetown. I'm flying up to Iowa next week to visit a friend with an m20c. What do you think about your mooney? Any quirks that should be discussed? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Great video! Thanks for the information and the recommendations, they're all very helpful. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thanks for your input, I'll do some research and see if it is any different on the model c.

One other question, is it actually possible to fit someone in the back seat? I'm about 6'1 if that helps. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yes I'm going to fly in a model c next week to get the feel for it. Any and all suggestions for what to add on a m20 are much appreciated. I want to do a custom paint, new interior, and like a garmin 430 with an autopilot, and a two screen aspen. The cowl mod does look much nicer than the guppy mouth, does it make that big of a difference with hearing/cooling? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thanks! is gear operation difficult since it is mechanical? How long does it take to et it to cycle up or down?

Hello, I'm in the market for a mooney (most likely m20c) and want to basically find one with no damage history and a relatively new engine, but that's it. My plan is to then get it painted, have the interior redone, and have new avionics installed. Has anyone had experience with this? And what mods are important/beneficial for a model c? I know there is a cowl conversion to help with cooling and speed, but are there any other ones?
