$150,000(us). The 325hp TSIO 520 has 405 hours, the airframe about 7000. Extra tanks, spoilers, GM530 etc. I do believe it has a minor damage history, gear up landings. (Yes, plural) Al G

7000 hours on the airframe? Are you sure it isn't the allusive Mooney
172? ;-) Jon Kraus '79 Mooney 201 4443H @ UMP Al wrote: Is anyone interested in a Mooney Rocket? A friend here has one up for sale, $150,000(us).

Mooney Rocket
A friend of mine has one.
On a 1 hour flight his numbers are within minutes of a 757. Impressive - but if your mission is to just go fly around for fun then it is a very expensive toy to operate. Tony -- Tony Roberts PP-ASEL VFR OTT Night Cessna 172H C-GICE
