1978 Mooney M20JSingle-Engine Piston Aircraft • Spring Branch, TX, USA

This 1978 Mooney M20J, registration N201MV, presents with a total airframe time of 4,200 hours and a significant recent engine overhaul, showing 943 hours SMOH on its Lycoming IO-360-A3B6D against a 2,000-hour TBO. The aircraft's performance is enhanced by the Turbo Bullet conversion, which provides increased speed and altitude capability comparable to a Mooney 231 while retaining the standard Lycoming engine. Key avionics include a Garmin GNS-530W WAAS GPS, dual Garmin G-5 flight instruments, a GTX-330-ES ADS-B transponder, and an STEC 60-2 autopilot with GPSS, though the seller notes the autopilot requires some service.
