Marauder Posted January 25, 2015 Report Posted January 25, 2015 I'm cleaning out my Mooney stash and came upon my manly original yokes and control shafts. I upgraded to the newer style yokes in the 90s. These shafts are the one the AD pertains to but passed the visual and dye test. If someone wants them, drop me a note and I will mail them off to you. I will be adding more stuff as I find it...
KSMooniac Posted January 25, 2015 Report Posted January 25, 2015 I love those yokes! First ones I got to use when transitioning to Mooneys. I'd love to have them, but for me they'd just be ornaments so if someone wants to fly them, then I'll pass.

They are fairly hefty and I remember when I went to the new style I didn't like it at first. These were really meaty and great to hold onto in turbulence. I swear they also seem to deflect less in turbulence than the newer ones. If no one needs them, they are yours.
Wakeup Posted January 25, 2015 Report Posted January 25, 2015 Would these work on my M20B?? They look great. Let me know if you think they would work. Thanks. Troy

Wakeup Posted January 25, 2015 Report Posted January 25, 2015 Sounds great. If anyone knows speak up. They sure would look great and would make me feel like I'm going faster. Thanks. Troy
cliffy Posted January 25, 2015 Report Posted January 25, 2015 I think someone wrote in a while back that they picked up 10 kts when they changed yokes! :-) 2
HRM Posted January 26, 2015 Report Posted January 26, 2015 I'm cleaning out my Mooney stash and came upon my manly original yokes and control shafts. I upgraded to the newer style yokes in the 90s. These shafts are the one the AD pertains to but passed the visual and dye test. What model/year? I have never seen a yoke like that. Better sitting on someone's desk than the trash heap. I am not interested in these, but at some point there will be an interest in restoring older Mooneys and these may be sought after. The problem with a Mooney is that, like mine, you put an Acclaim paint job on it, a new interior and panel and she's good for another 50 years!!
Marauder Posted January 26, 2015 Author Report Posted January 26, 2015 These came off of my 1975 F model. They are spoken for... Will be shipping them to their new owner this week. Be interested in seeing them all cleaned up and in another plane. 1
