About the Mooney M20C

The Mooney M20C is the classic short-body Mooney — produced 1962-1978 as "Mark 21" (early) and "Ranger" (later), powered by the Lycoming O-360 piston engine (180 hp), cruising around 140 kt. The most affordable way into Mooney ownership: clean used examples typically trade in the low-to-mid $40-90K range. As an older airframe, condition, gear-truss inspection (Mooney AD 81-15-04) and corrosion checks are critical pre-purchase items.

Produced 1962–1969.
