In this video, Mark Pilkington of Skywagons.com discusses the main components that make the Mooney M20J (201 MSE) different from previous Mooney model aircraft. It is not all encompassing.
This is a great representation of Mooney's! I just recently purchased a Mooney M20J and absolutely love it! I started a RU-vid channel where I use my plane to repossess vehicles cross-country.
Always precise and to the point info, I was looking for specs on an M20J after a trip to Kerrville! Btw, are you on some remote road, looks like the TX hill country. Love your videos, keep em comin!
Thanks. I do not like waffle. Keep it to the point. That is Northern California and it's the airport access road to the back lot of hangars that has not been built yet. Nice backdrop.
These were Very popular in Australia in the 70s n 80s. Very capable , fast , 4 n baggage n economical. Basically same engine as in many arrows , cardinals , the p68s , seneca 1s etc
The vertical and horizontal surfaces having their leading edges at 90 degrees to the direction of flight gives the surfaces max efficiency. The "leaning forward tail" is supposed to reach into the stall sooner and make recovery easier.
The J and K are the same everywhere except the engine. The J (201) has a 200 HP Injected four cylinder Lycoming with a 2000 hour TBO ( and it gets there) while the K (231) has a six cylinder 210 HP injected, Turbo-charged Continental with a 1800 hour TBO (and it does not get there) Basically the 231 is a turbocharged 201.
