atn_pilot Posted February 26, 2016 Report Posted February 26, 2016 (edited) Love the plane, but I'm moving up to a cabin class twin Cessna, and can't justify keeping a second bird. She's impeccably maintained. In the past few years, she's been through two $10k annuals at MSCs to get everything in mint condition. The last annual was in December, and even with a few minor squawks, only cost $3k thanks to the excellent condition the MSC annuals put her in. I am pretty firm on the price, though. This is one of the cleanest C models you'll find around. AFTT: 3,794 TSTOH: 400 hours TSMOH: 1,700 hours Annual completed in December 2015 (compressions in the 70s) All ADs complied with, and detailed compliance log maintained Prop almost brand new; not even any paint peeling yet Bran new alternator, engine mounts, vacuum pump; tach refurbished last year MSC did a complete overhaul of the landing gear a few years ago Panel and interior redone a few years ago Garmin 430 (not WAAS) STEC 30 with altitude hold & GPS couple Shadin fuel totalizer (you'll love this if you're used to inaccurate fuel gauges!) EGT & cylinder head temps I'll throw in an Optical Tach and a Garmin GPS MAP 396 Logbooks missing for a few years in the 70s, but complete records before and after Price: $49,900 If interested, email me at toddorts@gmail.com Edited February 26, 2016 by atn_pilot Quote
Brian_tii Posted February 26, 2016 Report Posted February 26, 2016 Looks great, and very tempting. I'm not sure I could fly enough to justify sole ownership. Anyone in the Atlanta area interested in a 1/2 partnership out of kcni or Kryy? Quote

Chocks Posted March 11, 2016 Report Posted March 11, 2016 (edited) Hey ATN, the plane looks pretty clean. However at that price point, I'd like to get some more details. 1) What speed mods do you have that I might be missing in the photos? 2) Do you have the AIA or AID engine? 3) Does it have the 1/2" valve conversion? 4) Doghouse or plenum baffles? 5) It looks like a Ranger not a Mark, so fixed step and cowl flaps? 6) I see it has a probes for all cylinder EGT. Is there a CHT probe for each cylinder too or single probe stock? I think that's it for now. Thanks! Edited March 11, 2016 by FlyingSchmidt Quote
atn_pilot Posted March 11, 2016 Author Report Posted March 11, 2016 I'm a pilot, not a mechanic, so I don't understand half of that. Sorry. Here's what I do know, though: 1. No speed mods. The only significant mod is the O&N fuel bladders 5. Fixed step, no cowl flaps 6. Single CHT Quote
eman1200 Posted March 11, 2016 Report Posted March 11, 2016 I would think you'd at least know what engine is in it, given that you're trying to sell it. it's an O 360 A1D, according to the logs. Quote
Hank Posted March 11, 2016 Report Posted March 11, 2016 It's probably a Ranger. That's what my 1970 C is. But our panels are very different. Quote
atn_pilot Posted March 11, 2016 Author Report Posted March 11, 2016 Sorry, I know some guys get into that, but I'm not one of them. I know it runs great, has compressions in the 70s on all cylinders, and doesn't burn oil. But I'm more than happy to send scanned copies of the engine and aircraft logs to anyone interested. Quote
atn_pilot Posted March 16, 2016 Author Report Posted March 16, 2016 I have a somewhat tempting trade offer on the plane, but I'd really prefer to sell it outright. I need to get it sold quickly, though, otherwise the trade might be off the table in a few weeks. With that in mind, I'm willing to accept $45k in order to get a quick sale. If interested, please contact me. Otherwise the plane will probably be off the market at the end of the month so I can accept the trade offer. Thanks! Quote

atn_pilot Posted April 13, 2016 Author Report Posted April 13, 2016 Well, I'm officially no longer a Mooney owner. Sold the plane yesterday. It was a great plane, but time to get something bigger. I'll definitely recommend Mooneys to people in the future. You can't beat 140 knots at 8gph. Quote
rbridges Posted April 13, 2016 Report Posted April 13, 2016 good for you. It just shows that a good plane at a fair price sells fast. 1 Quote
