I posted this for-sale for this Missile about 3 weeks ago. I'm reducing the price to $149,900 which in my opinion (admittedly I am obviously biased) is an absolute steal for the amount of airplane you are getting. Contact me with any other questions. -Mark 630-849-3608 mwthomps2010@yahoo.com -- ORIGINAL POST (with newly modified price and some other minor changes) BELOW -- 1982 Mooney Missile for sale. Rocket Engineering STC to convert a standard M20J by adding a Continental IO-550A and a 3-blade, fully feathering Hartzell Scimitar prop. VERY low engine and prop times (120 SMOH and 90 SOH) TKS anti/de-ice equipped. Only de-iced Missile I've seen anywhere. IFR equipped with a Garmin GNS 430W, KFC-150 autopilot, and King KNS-80 Nav/Comm with glideslope as radio/nav #2. It is tough to beat this aircraft's speed-to-cost ratio. Rich of peak, it will cruise at 175-180 KTAS on 16-17.5 GPH. It has GAMIs, so it can cruise lean-of-peak very smoothly at 155-165 KTAS on only 10.5-11 GPH. Better gas mileage than my wife's mini-van. Other equipment includes a US-8A eight-point engine analyzer, 2 x Whelen Parmetheus LED landing lights, Monroy long range fuel tanks (93 gal useable), 2013 Weep-No-More main and aux tank re-seal, Tanis plug-in engine heater and new nose-gear shock discs (4/13).Grey leather interior installed in 1994 in good condition. New tires (8/13). Useful load is 1000 lbs. Even if you top it off with all 93 gallons (rarely have I had to do that), that still allows about 400 lbs full-fuel payload. Bear in mind that is 93 gallons...that gets you a 4-7 hour endurance depending if you decide to run it rich or lean of peak, usually way more than I need. I usually on put 70-75 gal in it, and that's plenty. Asking $149,900. Considering that TKS is a $42,000 option installed, this aircraft is a bargain with its low engine and prop times and how it is equipped. I don't want to sell it, but the family is outgrowing 4 seats and the military is moving me soon!
