  Description

(Please watch the full video of this plane. It’s the most detailed video of Mooney 252- 262 with all details, engine management, speeds, flight ect...) Mooney 252 is considered the best Mooney model by most. This Mooney 262 Trophy conversion is similar to 252 and has some rare features. This plane has 28,000ft ceiling, flies 200 knots, burn only 12-13.5 gal/hr, over 1200 mile range. No other certified plane can do as efficiently. This Mooney’s fuel savings alone is about $26,000 for every 1000 flight hours compared to similar capable planes. This Mooney has everything even a hard core pilot needs. A full TKS de-ice system that costs $66,000 to install. Speed brakes, onboard oxygen, Garmin avionics package and many redundancy systems. All logs, in annual, IFR cert. We had long cross country trips and it flies really nice. Interior and exterior condition tell a lot about how previous owners cared for the plane. This Mooney has shiny 3 tone paint, very clean airframe, no corrosion, hail or damages. Indicates a well cared for plane. One of the best features - Continental TSIO 360MB turbocharged intercooled engine. (This model is far better than previous GB or LB models) Tuned induction. Automatic wastegate so you don't worry about overboost - leads to longer engine and turbo life. GAMI injectors, JPI EDM 830 advanced digital engine monitor and digital fuel flow so you can fly this plane at 10-11 gal an hour and still get a very fast speed. (Watch the video to learn about the engine management). This engine has higher TBO of 1800. Since it runs much cooler pilots fly well above TBO without even replacing cylinders unlike other turbocharged engines. Dual alternator for redundancy. Very nice leather. Overall clean interior, carpets a little worn. Comfortable seats with height adjustment. Unique feature - rear seats can fold forward to give a large cargo space. 75 gallon usable fuel tanks both resealed. Good climb performance, 900+ ft/min at full gross, climb continuously up to 24,000ft. Beat most weather and catch nice high altitude tailwinds. Avionics to complement its capabilities with redundancies and backups. Garmin 430 WAAS and Garmin 760 touchscreen with bluetooth and wifi. Included Garmin GDL-52 gives you ADS-B traffic and weather in the 760 and mobile devices. Also has SiriusXM satellite weather. Stormscope, so you have all available cockpit weather. Latest Garmin GTX 335 transponder for ADS-B out. Digital HSI. 2 axis autopilot with altitude hold. There was a hard landing recorded in 2004. All repairs done professionally; everything logged in detail. It was 16 year ago and flown over 700 hours since. So no factor, but like to mention. Most expensive complete prop, wings and tail TKS de-ice system. $66,000 to install. Not FIKI, but I think it’s a better system than others since it covers the entire plane unlike other systems. Having a full de-ice system is a lifesaver in unexpected icing. Hard to find 252 family planes; they are reliable, efficient, fast. Rare to find this nicely equipped. ** Please watch the video for all the details about the plane and see how it flies. Thank you for your interest Aerolife 6 things we can 1.

The video play icon   I want to trade my aircraft with this 1983 MOONEY M20K

I have been watching Megan do YouTube videos on aircraft for sale. She does such thorough reviews on the planes the previous owner could usually learn something about their old plane. You can imagine my pleasure when I saw a video about a 182 that I was actively interested in buying. When I got to see the plane in person it was exactly as described. Then AeroLife Aviation helped me with the training I needed and arranged for some routine maintenance I requested. Everything was above and beyond my high expectations. Thank you Megan and AeroLife Aviation

- Raymond B.

Megan was very thorough and professional. We thought the process went very smooth. Enjoyed working through the process. Many Thanks

Very easy to work with Aerolife and very accommodating, and knowledgeable. In a fast pace aggressive market for these planes they simplify buying process using DocuSign and knowing plenty of folks in industry to assist in the process if required.

- Travis Wisniewski

Aerolife Aviation was great to deal with. Megan handled the buying process well from providing the paperwork, to getting the plane delivered to a mechanic for inspection, and arranging the plane to be delivered to Alabama. I think the plane looks great and I am very happy with the purchase.

- Randy S.

I highly recommend Aerolife Aviation. They are easy to work with, honest, and very knowledgeable in planes and aviation. We love our Cirrus! Thanks

I will never be able to express my total gratitude and appreciation to Megan for her extremely professional, capable, friendly, honest, cleaver, resourceful, and experienced expertise! She not only helped me navigate the risky and sometimes stressful path to aircraft ownership, but spent numerous hours educating and helping me make the right decision in upgrades and other significant factors in the aircraft purchase. I am very impressed and totally trust Megan and Aerolife Aviation to satisfy all my future trade in and aircraft purchases. In fact, I will only deal with Aerolife Aviation and Megan from now on! A thousand thank you’s Megan! You made this happen!

- Patrick S.

I really enjoyed dealing with Megan @ AeroLife Aviation during the purchase of this Cessna 182P. They delivered a plane that met every expectation as advertised. They held nothing back by providing all log's, AD's, & 337's for our review. Then upon inspection absolutely nothing was found not previously disclosed. I have purchased a really nice airplane thanks to Megan and her team.

- Tom A.

Aerolife is a great company to work with. They are very accommodating and provide great service that makes the buying experience both smooth and pleasurable.
