Hi my family is currently in the home stretch of buying our 1969 M20F. I was wondering what are some simple mods wether they are appearance or performance that are simple and low cost to improve the plane??

I'm 17, got my PPL in January and now have 100 hours. Me and my family decided to get a plane to avoid the costs of renting and start building hours. In the fall I will be going to Embry Riddle to finish my training. We decided to get this Mooney M20F over a Arrow or Cherokee. I will leave the link to the plane below.

Looks like a beautiful airplane. Are you looking for modifications you can do yourself as the owner or low cost mods that would have to be done by an A&P?

Simple stuff that I could do low cost

they're might be a few things you could do, but not much is going to make a whole lot of difference.  Low cost is also relative.  Honestly, the cheapest way to get the mods you want is for the airplane to already have them.  

 

here is an old link just to show you what is/was possible.  http://www.mooneymart.com/modifications/index.php

If you want to tinker you need to get an experimental like a Vans RV. Unfortunately the only four seater is the RV10 and is super expensive used. Other four seaters include the STOL Zenith 801.

It's a nice looking plane.  Just make sure you have a well respected Mooney shop perform a pre-purchase inspection.
