Comparison article

[PTK]

There was an article on here comparing na and tc mooneys on xcountry trips. I can't seem to be able to find it.

A little help is much appreciated!

It's not an "article" per SE, but there's a lot of discussion re: NA vs. Turbo (with some twin talk thrown in) in this thread:

Peter, Are you referring to the MAPA article on the 231 or the 252? Both have comparisons on performance, efficiency, and costs compared to a J. The 252 goes 191kts at 17K....that's pretty fast.

Thanks Hank. Thank you Ray.

I do remember it was an actual article. It was comparing sample East West trips if IRC.

This links to a mapa article as well as a pretty good counterpoint.

Here is a link to an old MAPA article:

The Mooneyland article in response by Zef (now deceased) does make some very good points.
