Miguel Posted December 16, 2015 Report Posted December 16, 2015 I own a Mooney M20K s/n: 25-0290 in Spain. In 1988 this aircraft had one Turbo-Plus Spoiler system 19000 per STCSA3341NM installed. I have just purchased the aircraft and have no records about it. Is it possible that anyone with this system installed on it's Mooney M20k, can provide me with a copy of this STCSA3341NM, the AFMS, and if possible a maintenance manual?. The manufacturer has no info about it. Quote

M20F Posted December 16, 2015 Report Posted December 16, 2015 Just now, Miguel said: Many thanks M20k. Do you have this spoilers in your mooney?. Nope I am just a google master :-) 1 Quote
DonMuncy Posted December 16, 2015 Report Posted December 16, 2015 I saw the STC, but I don't have any idea about the spoilers or anything about them. Quote

The manufacturer has no info about it. Which manufacturer - Mooney or Turboplus? It would have to be Turboplus in Murrieta, California. I just recently got similar documentation on their Intercooler for a client, so would be very surprised to hear they don't have it for their speedbrake. They are very rare - only seen one installation so far. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote
Miguel Posted December 17, 2015 Author Report Posted December 17, 2015 Hi Kortopates, I got the intercooler info and STC from Turbo-Plus (nice guys), but don't have the AFMS and maintenance info, since the system was discontinued 30 years ago and tha company change hands 3 times. Quote
Parker_Woodruff Posted December 17, 2015 Report Posted December 17, 2015 I have never seen this. would be interested to see pics. Quote

Miguel, There is one Mooneyspace user here that also has them. He just got his Mooney recently and posted a thread asking about both Turboplus Speedbrakes and Intercooler. His user name is a synonym of Mike. I don't know if he has any documentation on them - I got him the Intercooler doc's. If you can't find him and the thread I can when I get back in a day or two. At least his still work. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Quote
kortopates Posted December 18, 2015 Report Posted December 18, 2015 I have never seen this. would be interested to see pics. I don't have a pict to post but they are totally different than the Precise - no cartridge sits in the wing. Instead the single blade brakes lays flat on the surface of the wing and they are hydraulically activated to rise up into the airstream. Not as aesthetically pleasing to the eye sitting on the wing but appear as if they would be less likely to stick coming down compared to the Precise; except it too can get iced over just as easily.

Miguel Posted December 18, 2015 Author Report Posted December 18, 2015 Hi Kortopates, Yes please try to find him for me, sure I can wait a few days. Many thanks, Quote
carusoam Posted December 18, 2015 Report Posted December 18, 2015 This Cessna has them in the pictures.... https://www.barnstormers.com/classified_files/1/0/6/8/8/0/7/1068807-N6NT_Detailed_Spec_No_Email.pdf When googling it may be helpful to use turboplus as one word. Like turboplus wing spoiler and speed brake. they are or were in Gig Harbor, Washington. i'm pretty sure this is their website, that leads to a Facebook page.... http://www.turboplus.com/index.htm Best regards, -a- Quote

Hi Miguel, Mikey is the other 231 new owner that has the same Turboplus spoiler. But after re-reading the thread he didn't have the AFMS POH supplement. But I would suggest you contact him through a PM, since the thread was a month ago, in case he does have some maintenance info on them. Not likely I am afraid. See http://mooneyspace.com/topic/16962-turbo-plus-speed-brakes/#comment-242535 and his profile is at http://mooneyspace.com/profile/14506-mikey/ Quote
Miguel Posted December 20, 2015 Author Report Posted December 20, 2015 Hi Kortopates, many thanks for all your help. I have just found the AFMS and going to contact Mikey. 1 Quote
