AB123 Posted May 18, 2023 Report Posted May 18, 2023 Hello Everyone, I am looking at potentially buying a M20J and have done "everything" research wise except sit in the plane and fly it. Curious if anyone in the denver area who owns a M20J or similar medium-body mooney would be open to taking me on a flight. Thanks for the help in advance! Quote
Vance Harral Posted May 18, 2023 Report Posted May 18, 2023 There are plenty of M20Js in the Denver area. But if you get no better offers and don't mind traveling a bit north, I can offer you a ride in a 1976 M20F out of KLMO. I'm a CFI, and you can sit left seat if you like. 1976 was the last year for the F model. The instrument panel and interior are the same as a 1977 M20J (including the infamous, superior throttle quadrant ). It's the same body length, and feels/flies essentially the same. It's just about 10 knots slower in cruise, as it lacks the sloped windshield, improved cowl, and various fairings of the J model. You'll enjoy those changes if you're flying a J, but curse them if you're working on one. PM me if interested, but no hard feelings if you get a better and/or closer offer. Quote
