Pilot boy Posted May 12, 2020 Report Posted May 12, 2020 Hello all, I have the green light from the other half to purchase the plane. I am hunting for a model C, E, F, or G. I've detailed my mission previously (basically 2 parents and small child for x country flights). I am looking for the best plane I can buy for around the $50k mark. Preferably IR and WAAS GPS capable with at least a standard 6 pack panel. Anyone have or know any good ones for sale, please let me know. Thank you for any tips or leads. -Ben Quote
carusoam Posted May 12, 2020 Report Posted May 12, 2020 Ben, Lets get down to work! Strike while the iron is hot!!! You have the approval... let’s get going... Go Mooney! -a- First on the list... provided by @Bayern Speed, is a lovely mid-body Mooney, wonderfully referred to as an M20F... Bayern has been an MSer for several years.... The F, first came complete with a fuel injected IO360...and 10” of extra foot room for your back seaters... If your FA (finance administrator) sits in the back... the M20F will be perfect for her... Keep in mind... if that extra 10” of space costs too much... the same mega-powerful/super efficient IO360... is available in the short-body M20E... a perfect plane to grow into a forever-plane... (include reference for Bob’s plane here) Start at the top of the list... and work your way down... take good notes, build a spreadsheet... get ready to read some logs... PP thoughts only, PPIs and TT are highly recommended, not a CFI... or sales guy... List.... https://mooneyspace.com/forum/10-aircraft-classifieds/ First bird on the list... 4 Quote

I'm open to other models like the C and E also. I'd really like something with a GPS WAAS already installed or I need to budget another $15k to put one in... Quote
