I have an Ovation which is an M20R. I did notice that on flight aware the designation is M20P. I often wondered why but now I know. Thanks!

Took 5 months to sell. What is your intentions for the upgrade?

I mention it to the line guys at my airport as a refresher. Maintenance should also be reminded because we are all human!

Looks like a 1969 M20E.

Thank for posting. Hopefully some of us can use it!

I am pleased to hear that your engine started after getting to a lower and warmer height. I haven't practiced an engine out for over a year. I feel I should next time I fly. When I purchased the plane over a year ago the pilot I bought it from said to not pull the gascolator as you could run into problems. One day after flying I pulled it for two seconds or so and realized how much fuel will actually come out. I always have checked the sumps and luckily have not had any indications of water in my M20R yet!

That's the person that I thought would be best to start with. I already asked one Acclaim owner if he would be accept mine in a trade and he responded back after thinking about it that it would be in his best interest to sell his outright and not continue flying.

I purchased mine through a Broker that had it listed from a pilot in FL. The useful load listed is #948. I do have AC and Oxygen. I fly from South Carolina to Massachusetts several times per year. On the east coast, I feel that I don't really need the turbo but If I had it I'm positive that I would appreciate it. I have thought about upgrading to an acclaim but would have to sell mine first. It would be great to be able to trade it in like a car!

Congratulations on your purchase. In the meantime it looks like you can fly in and spend a night in a tent. Cook dinner over the campfire. Does the airpark have restrictions?

Nick, looks like you are really enjoying your Ovation. Congratulations on your purchase. I enjoy how much faster I get from KGGE in SC to 1B9 in MA using my Ovation instead of an arrow lll.

Just saw that you purchased an ovation that you posted on May 8th. I can't believe that no-one has responded. I say that it is awesome that you purchased your first Ovation. I purchased my first last June 2023. I'm enjoying it and hope you are too!

Have you sold the Ovation Yet? I own a '97 and would sell it to acquire yours.

I'll give you $110,000 with my 1997 M20R.

Looking to buy the "Push On Low Boost" for a buddy who has a M20J. Please let me know how I can obtain this from you. Thanks, Den
