What fails the most on a Mooney? I've read numerous articles about fuel leaks.... -
Johnson bar - which model M20's have them?
azwildcat replied to azwildcat's topic in General Mooney Talk
Thank you for the responses. I'm most interested in the manual gear (Johnson Bar) for reliability and maintenance costs. I was considering the Cessna Cardinal, but after seeing some disturbing landing videos, I think I'll pass on the cardinal. Someone mentioned the FAA requiring a backup landing system....is this standard, e.g. a manual landing gear if your electric fails? I'm a new pilot and this will be my first plane, so any transferred knowledge is much appreciated. -
Wondering which M20's have the johnson bar in them? Seems like a cost-effective option....I've read some that the landing gear breaks on these. Is this a known issue on M20's? Thanks for any info in advance!
