J0nathan225 Posted August 14, 2019 Report Share Posted August 14, 2019 Well I sold my previous M20E 4 months ago, told myself I should save money... Well I did that for 4 months so let me introduce my "New" to me Mooney, it's a 1964 M20E with nothing I can really think of upgrading (so far). I'm excited for my cross country trip at the end of the month to pick it up! 20 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tigers2007 Posted August 14, 2019 Report Share Posted August 14, 2019 What is the brand and model of that AI next to the Aspen? I’ve never seen that before. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best regards, -a- Sure hope it will be my forever Mooney now Correct call on the AI300 BK, I believe. Apparently it cannot be backup AS,ALT, VS. Even though the new one can display them, it would be for reference only. I suppose I've gotta keep some "steam" gauges to keep it vintage anyways. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MIm20c Posted August 14, 2019 Report Share Posted August 14, 2019 We need some old and new picture to see the transformation...probably a faster, and cheaper, way to upgrade an E model. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob_Belville Posted August 14, 2019 Report Share Posted August 14, 2019 Jon, what a great looking vintage E! And what a well done panel. Stec30? Can't wait to see it. (The control knobs, throttle, mixture, prop, appear to be original. Make sure they're in good shape - according to McFarlane they should have been replaced years ago. https://www.mcfarlaneaviation.com/media/documents/extend-the-life-of-your-mcfarlane-throttle-control.pdf ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Peace Posted August 14, 2019 Report Share Posted August 14, 2019 Looks great. I like the paint job and colors. Like everything about the plane. Where will it be based? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
