Niko182 Posted January 26, 2019 Report Posted January 26, 2019 While youre looking, get some quotes on exactly what you want to do. That should scare you away from the basic panel, and allow You to see how much of a bargain an aircraft with a nice panel is. 2
DJE22 Posted January 26, 2019 Report Posted January 26, 2019 Brian, the responses I’ve read to your request for input mostly suggest walk away. I agree. I had spent more than a year looking. And for much of that time I admit, I was kicking tires. But the more tires I kicked the more frequently I came across good, viable options. In the end I was very close to choosing between a C in upstate NY, an E in Idaho, a project F in my back yard (Mn) and a nice but more expensive C in KC. Suddenly I fell into a very nice C also in my back yard! This aircraft wasn’t even on the market yet and it was mine to win (or lose). I paid the asking price (only & a bit more than what they're asking for your example) but this one was 8 years since complete resurrection; ndh; low aftt; 750 SMOH; paint and interior; many mods! The right airplane will come to you so keep looking! in the meantime, keep flying so when you find your Mooney, you’ll only need transition training. 1
