    I owned N39MG (1979 M20K turbo 231) from 1995 till 2010. We put 2000 hours on it. Here are some things we learned:
    - always full rich in the climb, fuel is the cheapest thing you’ll put in it
    - flew it at 65% power, leaned to about 1550 degrees on the turbo inlet temp, never lean of peak. We got over 2000 hours on our factory REMAN.
    - managed the fuel burn, take off on left tank, after 1 hour switch to right tank, 1 hour on right then back to left tank, burn down to low fuel light comes on at 8 gallons, burn 20 minutes more on left then switch to right for remainder of flight.
    - we started the turbo cool down in the pattern. We kept the prop speed low until we retarded the throttle. If you spin up the engine while taxing you need to restart the cool down clock.
    The turbo Mooney is a great with lots of speed and room to stretch out. We routinely made non-stop trips from Danbury CT to Jacksonville FL in 5 hours burning 55 gallons. Enjoy it. Regards, John

      Why not just leave it on both fuel selectors? Keeping one on for an hour and then switching to the other seems unnecessary, and adds extra steps that could possibly be forgotten about.

    Hey Josh I just wanted to let you know that you change lives. I never REALLY knew I wanted to fly until I started watching your videos a few years back. I am 9 hours in to getting my ppl and I honestly couldn't be more excited to get those 1500 hours to fly commercial. I've never really been this happy in my life and I can't help but give you a lot of the credit. Thanks again man, you do fantastic work.:)

    Fantastic as usual!! When I went from a 172 to my friends '62 M20C, I would spend alot of time practicing slowing her down from cruise to the white arc, very slippery. And lots of practice with the Johnson Bar gear extension/retraction! With the pushrods, she did handle like like Ferrari! I miss her...And FFZ!

    Also, yay, learned something! When I got my constant speed prop endorsement, I was only taught to cycle the prop three times (if it was cold enough to warrant making sure the oil was flowing) and watch the drop in RPM. Going to add the "check oil leak" - "check RPM" - "check slight OP drop" to my personal procedures :) (In EASA world, a complex aircraft is something different, and we have separate endorsements for things such as a constant speed prop, glass cockpit, retractable landing gear, (turbo) charged engine etc.)

    Gotta love a Mooney. One of my favourite things about the low stance is that you can actually feel the ground effect through the yoke - once you get used to that, never make a 'flat' landing again, even at unfamiliar airports or in unusual lighting/visibility.

  • @thatflywelshguy9662
    @thatflywelshguy9662 5 років тому +1

    Really good video honestly. Few critiques from a professional pilot. 1. is proper phraseology with regards to communication to ATC. 2. Is checklist usage. If you're going to run a crew based cockpit, then it should be read properly like a crew. 3. on approach teach your students trim for speed and use power for altitude. This is the same for EVERY aircraft, whether a 172 or 747. When you told the student to add power he got high and added airspeed (from trying to correct). Then told him to slow down by pulling power where he then sank below GS. An ILS or any approach can be flown hands free by trimming for airspeed, then managing thrust/power for descent. I have seen this disconnect in teaching students from 172's all the way to the 747.

    I always wanted a new Mooney someday. When the French company bought Mooney, and sold the rights to the new 301 to Socata, and they designed and had Daher build the Tarbes-Mooney in Tarbes France, or TBM, that is now the Daher TBM 900-930, I wanted one of those. Until I learned that they cost ~$4.0M USD. Now, at 67 I want an old Mooney! LOL 8) Congrats, nice airplane!! --gary

      Wants aside, don't let anyone tell you that you need a multimillion dollar new airplane. The older Mooneys fly great, there are plenty that still need pilots to fly 'em, and they're fantastic cross country planes.

    I got my PPL in northern Minnesota. I don’t remember the runway being closed like that. Only thing that would delay us is to preheat when it was below 0.
    My complex endorsement was in a M20C and was a favorite to fly. Shoulder room between two grown men was tight but a sacrifice I was willing to give with the performance. Another great video.

I have to say Ronaldo is a lucky guy to have you flying with him. One funny thing I use to live in Cocoa Beach, FL and also we had a place in Long Beach, CA.

Enjoy and thanks for sharing. Hope you’ll share some of the complex/high performance training with viewers. Most pilots either have them or don’t. Showing the training would be very informative to those that don’t have. Thanks as always. Love watching the videos. 7032P
