  1. Bump for a price cut to $199.9k! It’s a beautiful plane but my family no longer fits!
  2. I have my beautiful 1982 Mooney Missile (M20J with a 300hp IO550) listed with a broker here in Denver (Scott Hager - (720) 839-7652). The pending birth of our third child forces the sale. The aircraft just finished an extensive annual with Advanced Aircraft at KTTD and is hangared at KCFO. I’ve been honored to be the caretaker of this great aircraft, which features a fully modernized panel, TKS, and recent paint. No known damage history, 1000lb+ useful load, recent top overhaul (~100hrs), everything works as it should. The efficiency of the aircraft is a really great selling point. I see 160ktas on <10gph at 10-14k ft. With the long range tanks, I can routinely fly halfway across the country without stopping. I’ve put the official ad with spec sheet and photos below. I purchased the aircraft from a well known MSer and would love for it to find a home through this community. This was supposed to be my ‘forever’ plane. We’re asking $199.9k, but please reach out if you’re interested. My family no longer fits! Feel free reach out to me via PM or Scott with any questions. https://oncenterline.net/aircraft/1982- ... le-n301tv/
  3. I've done KRTN and KGUC - courtesy cars at KRTN available for an overnight and there is a hotel you can walk to from the FBO at KGUC.
  4. Just an IO550 (A - I believe), so somewhere from $40k to whatever air power has a factory new engine for.
  5. Hard to go wrong with a Missile, or with Seth
  6. A shameless plug for a Missile. I recently purchased one with TKS and could not be happier. 6hr+ range LOP up high (~165ktas on 11.5gph), or burn gas and go fast down low. I’ve brought mine up to FL210, and while climb rate wasn’t great up there, I could have gone higher. I have operated it several times in CO and was impressed by the T/O performance, even at altitude. Great useful load (1000+) and plenty of baggage room. The extra length on the long bodies is in the baggage compartment, not in the passenger cabin. Even traveling with my wife and a small child (lots of baby gear), we have had plenty of room. Substantially lower entrance cost than an Ovation means lower stress when the inevitable post acquisition maintenance item comes up (no matter how good the pre buy). If the extra $100k is burning a hole in your pocket, you can always throw it at a great panel. I considered a Bravo but the overhauls are substantially more expensive. I wasn’t comfortable gambling on a mid-time engine after talking with several mechanics. Furthermore, with wife and child I knew my time in the FL’s would be limited. IO550 widely considered the best ‘legacy’ engine in GA. I’ve had 2 planes with IO550s and the missile takes the cake for me.
