1998 Mooney M20M Bravo

$250,000

This cross-country IFR machine has a 270HP turbocharged 6-cylinder Lycoming, FIKI-approved TKS, 4-place oxygen, Garmin WAAS avionics / autopilot, and re-sealed Monroy extended-range fuel tanks.

I’ve taken it from coast to coast many times. Cruising between FL180-240, you can go direct almost anywhere. Best power gives about 196 KTAS, and it operates very well LOP (175 KTAS at 14 GPH).

I believe it spent its first 22 years in Idaho, Alberta, then Minnesota. I’ve owned it since 2020, mostly in Oregon and recently in Florida. To the best of my knowledge it was hangared full-time until 2024.

Complete logbooks provided digitally. No known damage history. Annual due Nov 2026.

Engine and Propeller

Lycoming TSIO-540-AF1B, 270 HP – 1800 TTSN

McCauley 3-blade propeller – 1131 hrs SPOH (Dec 2008)

It’s well-equipped for both cold weather (Tanis engine pre-heat system) and humidity (a stand-alone refrigerant-based engine dehydrator).

I have complete oil analysis records since I purchased the aircraft in 2020, during which time I’ve used CamGuard and/or Aeroshell W100+. I installed a modern JPI engine monitor in 2021, and have complete engine data since. It’s borescoped at every oil change.

I operate LOP in cruise at 14 GPH, which gives 175 KTAS at reasonable altitudes, and CHTs below 380ºF. You can of course burn more gas and go faster: it will do 182 KTAS at 18 GPH, or 196 KTAS at 20 GPH.

Piston pin plugs began to wear in 2021 (a known issue for this vintage of Lycoming), and were replaced with new plugs in all 6 cylinders.

Complete exhaust system overhaul in October 2024.

No other issues in the 5 years that I’ve flown it.

Avionics

Primary instruments are dual Garmin G5s (solid-state AHRS), configured for reversionary mode, with a backup battery.

Backup analog instruments are an altimeter, airspeed indicator, vertical speed indicator, electric turn coordinator, and two electric attitude indicators. There is no vacuum system.

Garmin GFC 500 Autopilot with flight director, altitude/VS/IAS pre-select, glideslope coupling, GPSS roll steering, return to level (LVL), and Electronic Stability Protection (ESP). All autopilot servos were replaced with updated “mod 1” units in 2025.

WAAS-capable Garmin 430W navigator, which can fly LPV approaches

Garmin GTX 345 transponder; ADS-B in and out with Bluetooth

KX 165 secondary NAV/COMM radio

KMA 24 audio panel

Additional Equipment

Dual main batteries, dual alternators, external GPU plug

Monroy long-range tanks, 118 gallons usable

All fuel tanks stripped and re-sealed with the Weep-No-More process in 2012

TKS system certified for flight into known icing conditions (FIKI), with dual pumps.

115 cu ft integrated four-place oxygen system, with a two-place O2D2 pulse-demand unit

Redline SideWinder battery-operated tow bar. One person can move the plane easily, even at max gross weight.

PreciseFlight speedbrakes are installed, but function intermittently (and are currently disabled / INOP). I’ve never felt the need for them – you can descend at cruise power and 2000 FPM without nearing Vne, and it’s easy to slow down – so I’ve never bothered to diagnose the issue, but the equipment is there if you want it.

BFG WX-950 Stormscope

JPI EDM730 Engine Monitor, which exports logs to a standard USB drive

Artex 406 MHz ELT

Fully-articulating front seats. Split fold-down and removable rear seats make a large, flat cargo space.

4 Place intercom with line-in port

Electric elevator and rudder trim

Leather interior and all liners in good condition. Worn carpet below the pilot rudder pedals.

Landing gear "donuts" in good condition
