Yes it was.  I finally have the squawks, I wasn't comfortable selling it with, completed.  And don't ask how much I like stripping Mooney fuel tanks!!!!

This looks like a really clean E model. So tempted!

Go for it! Tom has a great reputation, and seems to know his way around an airplane pretty well. I hope to meet him some day.

Is this aircraft still for sale? 

Yes but I have a buyer from Texas pretty far along on the process (has all logs, STC's and 337's), and last oil sample.  He's submitted for all the documentation from the FAA, quoted insurance, has been in daily contact with me and already discussed options for coming up to close and fly it home.  I'm kind of an old school guy so not demanding a down payment to hold it.  I have another from the DC area interested if the current deal doesn't close.  If you want more infomation I guess I can provide it but I wouldn't sell it without the current interested buyer having an opportunity to close on it first.

Thanks Tom, if it doesn’t end up closing please let me know I have been looking for quite some time and can close within a couple days.

Good luck and stay vigilant. We are seeing more and more buyers, new and not new, inquiring about Mooneys.

Updated; Sale Pending.  Looks like it's going to Texas and if the stars align (weather) the new owner will get some Lancair IVPT time on his trip up to the U.P. to get it!

I'm worried I'm going to fall in love with Tom... be still my heart. ;p

A great danger that - this flight to buy a M20E may end up being massively expensive!

Money well spent for a chance to take a ride in that rocketship! And hopefully to hear some stories about his best friend that might help me be a worthy new owner of the airplane.
