romair Posted February 1, 2016 Report Share Posted February 1, 2016 (edited) I finally obtained my ME rating in my Baron, so I need to let go of my beloved Mooney. I will surely miss the fuel flow though… This airplane has been thoroughly maintained with great add ons. The avionics package is superb. It has the Garmin GTN 750 connected to a KI 525A and a KAP 150 autopilot. It has one of the most comprehensive engine monitors on the market – the EI MVP 50. The paint is original but shows well, with some chips on the leading edges. The interior is original, and looks well. I am the second owner of the airplane since new and this aircraft has always been hangared. The wings have been re-sealed at WeepNoMoore in 2015 and the warranty is transferable. The engine has 2100 hours since new and there is increase in metal on the oil analysis, as well as in the filter. It needs overhaul, and I can either do it myself and then sell it, or have the new owner decide the kind of overhaul that he/she wants at a convenient and trusted shop. Once you read through the details below you will soon realize this airplane will be squawk free for many years once the engine gets overhauled. Since the exhaust system/fuel system/hoses/alternator/starter/spark plugs/battery have all been changed or overhauled within the past 300 hours the overhaul should include the engine components only which significantly decreases the cost.

kevinw Posted February 4, 2016 Report Share Posted February 4, 2016 Personally I like the idea of buying an airplane with an engine in need of overhaul if the price is right. The new owner can convert the engine to an A3B6 with roller tappets and also have the comfort of knowing exactly how it has been operated. That's what I did with mine and I have no regrets. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
22 others Posted February 5, 2016 Report Share Posted February 5, 2016 I noticed some grease in the right wheel well, but it was just a smudge on my laptop screen. Beautiful airplane. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How much would one of these engines run $$$? Ball park.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dlthig Posted March 28, 2016 Report Share Posted March 28, 2016 It's a beautiful airplane. Continuing my theme of useful load obsession, shouldn't this one be eligible for 2900 pounds? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
par Posted May 1, 2016 Report Share Posted May 1, 2016 Sure wish I could trade my C for it but no such luck yet. Goodluck with the sale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
