BuzzProc Posted September 26, 2014 Report Posted September 26, 2014 Greetings all, 3 weeks ago I traded in my 1985 M20K, 231 and now have a 1999 Bravo. Loved the 231 but no comparison to the Bravo. I live in SE Arizona, Field Alt 4700', did a day trip to Phoenix/Chandler yesterday, took off for return flight, 103degrees, was more than happy to climb out at 1000FPM vs. 300-350. Thanks for having this Forum, I monitored it for several months before I decided to upgrade, you all are very helpful Regards BuzzProc 6 Quote

rocketman Posted September 27, 2014 Report Posted September 27, 2014 Love the plane! No real issues with the flight characteristics, comfortable, excellent climb performance, no heating issues, TBO to 2000 a real number, and did forget to say comfortable. The only issue is that it is so heavy that if you have an even slight elevation in front of your hanger, it is very tough to hand push it into it. Quote
