Bravoman Posted June 22, 2018 Report Posted June 22, 2018 Very nice. Looks like a screaming bargain to me. Good luck with the sale. Quote
rmininni Posted June 22, 2018 Author Report Posted June 22, 2018 Thanks for the comments. This is an incredible airplane, but I just don't fly as much now as I used to years ago. Maybe I should just start flying more... 1 Quote
rmininni Posted July 5, 2018 Author Report Posted July 5, 2018 Just to let you know, we will be doing an annual soon (August) at an MSC in North Carolina. Great opportunity to see the ins and outs of the airplane... We are here for the summer and in the Florida Keys in the winter. Quote
Bike_rider Posted July 7, 2018 Report Posted July 7, 2018 Very nice and well equipped. I hope you find it a good home. Good luck! 1 Quote
rmininni Posted July 17, 2018 Author Report Posted July 17, 2018 Hi Bike_rider, thanks for the comment. She is indeed a fine travel machine. I wish I was in a buying cycle and not on the selling side. Anyway, I am enjoying the plane now. Just did a BFR and had lots of fun pushing on the edges. The instructor was amazed at how much "warning" you get on the stall and how well behaved the stall is. I see your bird is an M20J. I think these are among the best Mooneys ever built for short to medium hops. My first Mooney was a J model. Bob 1 Quote
Bike_rider Posted July 21, 2018 Report Posted July 21, 2018 Yea, my wife and I really love our M20J, we've owned it for 20 years and have done a lot of upgrades to it. The LoPresti cowling and paint job make it look very modern. Every time we think about upgrading to another aircraft, we just can't justify it based on the type of flying we do and how often we go. I like the insurance rates, the O&M costs and the overall utility of the J. I agree that you should fly your bird a little more and see if you really want to sell it. We had a few years where we didn't fly ours that much but we did not sell it because we knew we would probably not get back into it. We are flying much more now and visiting our grown son who only lives 1.5 hours away by Mooney! Good luck in whatever direction you decide to take! 2 Quote
rmininni Posted July 25, 2018 Author Report Posted July 25, 2018 Looking for a sale. I will sell N1048D now for $190K and after annual in August maybe for $195K. I think this is an incredible deal on a great plane. Because the pricing is so low, I am also considering keeping the plane after the annual and just flying more. If you are interested, please let me know soon. Bob 610-613-0688 rmininni@yahoo.com 1 Quote
Trailboss Posted July 25, 2018 Report Posted July 25, 2018 You can't do this to me...I have to sell mine first! Quote

rmininni Posted July 25, 2018 Author Report Posted July 25, 2018 I think this plane would be very typical of Bravos. All my flying for the last few years has been quite low (5 to 10,000 ft) because my trips are fairly short. At low altitudes, I get around 165-170 mph at 18 mpg runnning at 2200rpm and 28 in MP (rich of peak). I know for sure I can get much higher speeds ( I have gone over 200 at around 20GPH)and efficiency at higher altitude and higher power, but I just did not need it in general and cannot remember the conditions If you are new to Bravos, you can check out the specs on this or other sites. I took the Mooney Pilot Proficiency Program a couple of times and learned that the performance in general was typical of Bravos. I would be happy to check out a few conditions on this particular plane if you are interested in purchasing. My airport is out of commission for a couple more weeks since they are repaving the runway. Then the plane will be going in for an annual. Let me know your thoughts. Best regards, Bob Quote
stormflyer Posted July 29, 2018 Report Posted July 29, 2018 Are you based in Vero Beach or just having Sun Avionics do some work for you? Quote
rmininni Posted July 29, 2018 Author Report Posted July 29, 2018 I was at Vero Beach hangared at Sun Aviation until May. Now in Shelby, NC, but plan to move to Rutherford County, NC airport in the next month or so...closer to summer home. Quote
nfonville Posted July 30, 2018 Report Posted July 30, 2018 Curious which MSC you are using for the annual in NC? I have a vacation home in Bryson City and spend time there in the summer. Looking for an annual option for my bravo next summer when I'm not really using the plane. Great looking Bravo. Wish I was still in the market to buy. Quote

There are quite a few MSers that use their services. https://www.aglaviation.com/ 2 Quote

You might be able to get a ride home if you need it and are willing to fly in my lowly E. 1 2 1 Quote
M016576 Posted July 31, 2018 Report Posted July 31, 2018 How much useful load does this bravo have? Quote

rmininni Posted July 31, 2018 Author Report Posted July 31, 2018 I believe the useful load is 951 lbs. Must be the extra equipment compared to Lancecasper estimate. I can provide the exact number and the equipment list when I get back home in a few days. Quote

rmininni Posted July 31, 2018 Author Report Posted July 31, 2018 My plan is to have the annual at AGL Aviation at KMRN near Morganton, NC. We are working on the middle week of August. Should be able to confirm soon. I am hopeful that Shelby Cleveland airport finishes up its runway soon. That is where N0148D is now. Bob Quote
rmininni Posted August 15, 2018 Author Report Posted August 15, 2018 Plane is now at AGL Aviation at KMRN in line for its annual. First time for me at the airport. It is a very nice field and the AGL folks are great to work with. Quote
