    Description

    This Beautiful 1979 Mooney M20K 231 Located in Mississippi. Meticulously Owned, Hangared with Complete Logs. This Aircraft is Low Time, Nice Paint and Interior. Continental TSIO-360-GB engine has 924 hours since major overhaul, with 45 hours since a complete top overhaul that included brand new Continental cylinders, and the McCauley two-blade propeller also has 924 hours since overhaul. The aircraft is supported by a strong maintenance regimen, including oil changes every 20 hours, and its next annual inspection is not due until December 2026. Notable recent work includes the fuel tanks being stripped and resealed in 2016, along with recent replacement of shock discs, brake discs, main tires, and the main battery.
