Good morning. I have been thinking about buying a Mooney Acclaim and would like to know if anyone that owns one and uses the WnBPro App be able to share its code so that I could run some samples/combinations of trips, fuel, people and stops to see where I would stand and if it would work for me and my main routes. Thank you, Fernando Paez

Thank you!

Good evening. Back in April I was fortunate enough to do a plant tour in Kerrville by Robert Dutton. He showed me an old electrical harness and a new one going on the production Ultras which was very much simplified. He also said that the new airplanes have a lower dashboard helping with forward visibility. Do does anybody now from what year forward the dashboards were lowered and the electrical harnesses simplified and made lighter? Thank you, Fernando Paez

I hear you there... $100K will be a bargain... You are right!

Thank you for your comments. Yes, this airplane does not have WAAS and it has the S-Tec-55x.

Good morning. Iam looking at a 2005 Mooney Bravo that has a has a Lycoming TIO-540-A1FB engine and would like to see if anyone could share their experience with this engine. Is it a good engine or has it had problems? I remember reading some time back about some Cessnas with Lycoming engines that had crank shaft problems and would not like to get into a situation like this. Thank you, Fernando Paez

I apologize. I meant to say GFC500 or GFC600. My Bad...

Good morning. Do we know if the G500/G600 is available for a G1000 Mooney Bravo? Thank you, Fernando

Thank you Guys for all of your feedback. I use to run the PA46 that I sold with 350 hp at 30"/2400 rpm/21 gph showing 1550° of TIT and the hottest cylinder shy of 360°. It had 1100 hours and great compressions. Great smooth engine started on a dime. Like I said, big fan of Mooney. I was actually at the plant this last April when I went for a plant tour and to see Acclaim N63PA which is on sale. They had 76CM ready to go at the door. Beautiful airplane. Pilot is in his 50's like me and I read it was registered on June 6 (my birthday). Being a pilot he surely is a fighter and Iam positive he will make it through this difficult experience and get well soon. My prayers are with the Him and his Family.

Wow! I understand. Thank you for sharing. I think Lycoming must of gotten their act together after that. I loved the engine on my PA46 and had all sorts of trouble with the Continental on the Columbia/Lancair. Regards, Fernando

Thank you Dan. From your profile picture your Bravo looks really amazing. What other differences are there between the Bravo and Acclaim other than the engine? What have you seen to be the Pros and Cons from one airplane versus the other? Iam a fan of Mooney and its legendary speed. Reagrds, Fernando

Good afternoon. I owned a 2006 Columbia 400 with a Continental engine and sold it to buy a 2010 PA46 Matrix with a Lycoming engine. In my opinion the Lycoming engine was far superior. Iam intrigued at why Mooney replaced the Lycoming engines on the Bravos for the Continental on the Acclaims? Was there a specific reason why they did that? What were the advantages? Please advise, Fernando Paez
