Remarks
(Please watch the full video of this plane with about 80,000 views. It's the most detailed video of Mooney 252- 262 with all details, engine management, speeds, flight etc... You can find it above and also on our YouTube channel here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IuuiXa4K9UI )
Mooney 252 is considered the best Mooney model by most. This Mooney 262 Trophy conversion is similar to 252 and has some rare features.
This Mooney has everything even a hard core pilot needs. A full TKS de-ice system that costs $66,000 to install. Speed brakes, onboard oxygen, Garmin avionics package and many redundancy systems. All logs, in annual, current IFR cert.
This plane can fly 28,000ft, 200 knots, burn only 12-13.5 gal/hr with over 1200 mile range. No other certified plane can do as efficiently. This Mooney's fuel savings alone is about $26,000 for every 1000 flight hours compared to similar capable planes.
Interior and exterior condition tell a lot about how previous owners cared for the plane. This Mooney has shiny 3 tone paint, very clean airframe, has no corrosion, hail or damages. Indicates a well cared for plane.
A few things I noticed: the bottom of the windshield has some spots that are only visible in some light conditions. Has had previous accident professionally repaired and documented in detail.
One of the best features is the Continental TSIO 360MB turbocharged intercooled engine. (This model is far better than previous GB or LB models) Tuned induction. Automatic wastegate so you don't worry about overboosting the engine - leads to longer engine and turbo life. GAMI injectors, JPI EDM 830 advanced digital engine monitor and digital fuel flow so you can fly this plane at 10-11 gal an hour and still get a very fast speed. (Watch the detailed video to learn about engine management). This engine has a higher TBO and can fly beyond TBO without replacing cylinders midtime unlike most other turbocharged engines. Dual alternator for redundancy.
Leather interior. Overall clean, carpets a little worn. Comfortable seats with height adjustment. Unique feature - rear seats can fold forward and flat to give a large cargo space.
75 gallon usable fuel tanks; both have been resealed.
Good climb performance, 900+ ft/min at full gross, climb continuously up to 24,000ft. Beat most weather and catch nice, high altitude tailwinds.
Avionics to complement its capabilities with redundancies and backups. Garmin 430 WAAS and Garmin 760 touchscreen with bluetooth and wifi. If you pair a Garmin GDL-52 or Stratus 3 unit, you can have ADS-B traffic and weather in the 760 and on mobile devices. Stormscope, so you have all available cockpit weather. Garmin GTX 335 transponder for ADS-B out. Digital HSI. 2 axis autopilot with altitude hold.
Most expensive complete prop, wings and tail TKS de-ice system. $66,000 to install. Having a full de-ice system is a lifesaver in unexpected icing.
It is hard to find 252 family planes; they are reliable, efficient and fast. It is rare to find an airplane this nicely equipped.
