1967 Mooney M20F Executive N3506X For Sale - SOLD!!

**paulsmeds** · May 29, 2024

SOLD!!

Owned for last 20 years always hangered at O69 (Petaluma, CA). This is an excellent airplane with many speed modifications and classic instruments with some new digital and 4 cylinder engine monitor with fuel flow. We’ve used this airplane for personal use along with getting and IFR rating. Flew IFR pretty constantly 10 years back but mission changed so stopped getting IFR certifications.

Original paint and interior with plastics repainted and ceiling replaced. Classic 6 pack instrument panel with AV30C and vac. AI. Original Brittain B6 3-axis autopilot holds altitude and set course but struggles to track VOR needle. Approximately $6,250 in speed mods make it near a M20J in performance.

While the engine is mid-time SMOH, it was rebuilt just 690 hours ago due to a cracked case. Additionally, less than 100 STOH (full top overhaul - 4 cylinders in 2022 -- New Scimitar propeller, hub and spinner in 2023). There are many years left on this engine!

Over the last 20+ years, we’ve focused on making it a solid mechanical aircraft we could trust with our family of 4. I’ve wrestled with selling over the last few years but can’t justify keeping it as we are not flying as much now that the kids have left home and we don’t have any long distance flight missions for a 4 passenger aircraft. This has been a solid aircraft and family member that is very difficult to let go. Please look over modifications and equipment below.
