Wow, what a beautiful airplane!!  If I was in the market for one, this would be it.  I’m sure you’ll have no problem selling it.  

[Parker_Woodruff]

I bet this will sell in a week...let me know if you need an insurance quote.

I added the logs and weight-balance via the link above.

What a dream airplane!  Your price very competitive - should sell very quickly!

[MATTS875]

Very nice.  Great price point with all the updates

Under contract.

Let’s do the math...

 

Today is... 2/17

Original post was... 2/10

 

Seems like 17-10=7 days...  (Erik is going to ask me to join his math team...)

hmmm... about a week.

Looks like Parker nailed it!

Which means...

Parker really knows the aviation market place...

-or-

Parker just bought another M20K!   

 

Congrats on the sale, hope it goes smoothly, let us know the new owner if/when able...

Best regards,

I didn't buy it, but I told one of my Airspeed Insurance clients about this post and he made a deal for it.  Maybe someone can buy his M20C if he is parting with it.

Perfect timing for both parties, it seems.

Sad it's not me. The Encore is the best Mooney ever made, and this is the best Encore in the country.

Well that didn't take long!  Not with a fantastic plane like that!  Congratulations to you!  And DOUBLE congratulations to the new owner who ever that might be!

[MIm20c]

Congrats!  The big Garmin panels are selling these planes fast. IMO right now 100 percent of the large pfd upgrade cost is recouped at time of sale.  The 98-99 vintage encores will always be sought after imo as well.

Will you please call my wife and explain this economic theory  to her 

[fantom]

Wonderful lesson for lots of airplane owner CB's.

Great plane, very fairly priced, well documented....sells in a week!

Parker, you didn't call me  If I were in the market now, I'd have jumped on this rare beauty. 

Good luck and best wishes to all involved.

Depends if your wife is the CFO or not. Mine? The increased safety reasoning works every time.

After some weather, scheduling, and COVID-related delays I gave the transition training in this plane today.  What a nice plane.

Sure is a beauty! Yep, makes sense. Still focusing on aircraft first and making progress there before arranging for ferry back and transition training. Took time off from work today to orchestrate a lot of pre-buy activities!
