aggiepilot04 Posted June 18, 2016 Report Posted June 18, 2016 I recently pulled the trigger on an Acclaim, so I'm selling the bird that my family so lovingly knows as "Juliet". She kept my little ones safe for about 8 years, and we are sad to see her go. Full quality pictures here: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0ByTozTHXhY52cENxUUotVDhOdFU Controller listing: http://www.controller.com/listings/aircraft/for-sale/1435525/1994-mooney-m20j-mse Also, I'm looking for a partner in the Austin or surrounding areas for the Acclaim. If you're interested, give me a shout. 1 Quote
Godfather Posted June 18, 2016 Report Posted June 18, 2016 Nice looking bird Dustin! A similar plane recently sold so things are moving. Good luck with your new Acclaim. 1 Quote
carusoam Posted June 18, 2016 Report Posted June 18, 2016 Nice Move, Dustin! '94 MSEs are nice! Best regards, -a- 1 Quote
Joe Zuffoletto Posted June 20, 2016 Report Posted June 20, 2016 Enjoy your Acclaim! They rock! If you have any Acclaim questions let me know. 1 Quote
aggiepilot04 Posted June 21, 2016 Author Report Posted June 21, 2016 Thanks Joe! Do you have the 310 STC? If so, were you able to update the G1000s with the new red line? I'm hearing that the necessary changes can me made within the G1000 configuration screens. Any other thoughts on the STC? Quote

I'm hearing that the necessary changes can me made within the G1000 configuration screens. Any other thoughts on the STC? I do have the 310hp STC and the G1000s got updated with the new red line. This is accomplished by making the G1000 think it's sitting in an Ovation 3, so now I have the Ovation 3 startup screen. This bothered me at first but the climb performance with the STC is so outrageous that I don't think about it any more. I heard that Mooney now owns the STC now but I don't know if they have any plans for it. Putting it into the Acclaim Ultra would have made a lot of sense. What's your serial number? Do you have a Type S? Quote

Do you have a Type S? That makes sense. The startup screen would bother me too, but if the performance increase is that perceptible (I'm in Texas with no A/C...I want to climb fast), then it would definitely be worth it. Yes, it's a Type S (SN 118). Close on July 19th...it's going to be a long month! Quote
Joe Zuffoletto Posted June 21, 2016 Report Posted June 21, 2016 Do you already have the kit for the STC? I flew mine stock for two years before installing the kit and I was blown away by the difference in takeoff and climb performance. I've climbed out of airports like Aspen and Leadville at between 1,500 - 2,000fpm in the summer with myself, my wife and half tanks on board. Last month I climbed from Petaluma airport (O69, sea level) to FL190 in 17 minutes. I was solo with full fuel and a fair amount of cargo on board. You won't be spending too much time in the hot Texas air down low! I saw your plane on Controller and it's a beauty. Congratulations! Quote
