My friend has a M20 and I love the feel of the controls compared to 172/182s. I love my Cessna but, the Mooney's controls have a tight feel with very little input on yoke to make the plane do what you want. Thanks for details on IFR approach. Another friend just updated his 172 with same autopilot, G5's, transponder and audio panel but, he got the 750xi which is very nice.

great to see you flying again...john from san diego...

They are great airplanes. Actually get somewhere quick on not much gas.

Grat video.. Just a correctionthough. The engine is not the same as the one in the new C172. The Mooney has angle valve cylinders and single shaft driving the dual magnetos. The C172 is parallel valve and individual magnetos.

Thanks Rich, great demo! I've always liked Mooney's. I always liked the story of Socata/Daher getting the rights to the Mooney 301 prototype, adding the PT6 and making the TBM 700! Even the name, "TarBes (France) Mooney" for the TBM is cool. Every time I see an old Mooney I think of that LOL. Hope your weather gets better there!! 8) --gary

Great demonstration of the avionics and autopilot Rich. Hopefully the sunny skies you all are used to out there return soon 😉.

[zxguy]

Nice job! You make look so easy. I had a similar M20. Really miss it now.

Another excellent video Rich! I have a couple friends with nice avionics in their Cessnas with older autopilots and this was a nice demo of why to upgrade to the Garmin as you so masterfully have shown. Thanks👍

[johnsenetto]

Terrific video Rich, great profile demonstration. Sweet airplane.

[tukinfoods]

Brilliant video thank you! Loved being taken through the approach…😊

[jeffrymilton]

Very impressed with your knowledge and skillset. Awesome videos. Thanks.

[goflyjeff]

Nice little airplane and a good price too.

[mrkc]

Another great video. Those planes are truly a ton of fun. Awesome job demonstrating the use of the automation and reducing your workload. That’s definitely a sweet avionics package.

[smartfreak]

I like watching these and saying what price I think is fair before you say it. The price almost always ends up much higher than I think is reasonable, but on this Mooney I decided that anything below 250k would be reasonable. Glad to see a cool plane being sold for a fair price.

[briangorriladetailing]

Sweet video Rich! Always learn a little something from your super cool videos! Thank you

[fflyer]

Great job Rich, that is the nicest Mooney I have seen in a long time....I am in the market for a Bonanza but that is a tempting one...
