Now for paint!

I am in the market for a Rocket and came across this same plane. I couldn’t help but notice that you were looking at it almost 2 years ago. Has it been on the market that long?

And what are opinions on value?

Welcome aboard Tire...

That plane doesn’t look the same anymore...

As far as values go...

There is a whole thread around here... including where to find the latest evaluator...
 

Mooneys can move around the world... so there isn’t a particular location effect on pricing...

Best regards,

Cool pics and video, GOSUS!

Turned gravity back on for this one...

This looks like the view I get, when I haven’t flown for a long time....

@Hyett6420 bought the G5 because the Artificial horizon gave up on us the other day, she’s back up at EGSL. Unless I’ve misunderstood I don’t have any option but to wait for the G3x, It doesn’t hVe the EU rating in the Mooney, does it? 
 

@Stephen thanks! Turning out to be a fun project! Wish I could add the speed-brakes and then she would be complete ;) tbc.....

It’s all about the touch screen though

plus the synthetics are second to none from what I can see o the Garmin.

G5 in P1 at least for the meanwhile! We will see if and when the G3x becomes available to us.. #Brexit

How much did it set you back hardware + installation? Would be good to have a benchmark (everything is 30% more expensive here!)
 

[PJClark]

$57k including the GTN750 for $8950 with trade in of the 530W that was in there. Hardware and all labor.  A G500TXI will set you back at least $5k more.

That's for:  G3X 10.6", EDM900 primary, G5 backup, GFC500 autopilot with pitch trim, GTN750, and GTX345R.  New powder coated panels with placquards etched in white as you see.
