HOW MUCH DO YOU WANNA BET that the likelihood of your Mooney not being airworthy is great? WHAT!? NOW WHAT?! Well, this not only applies to Mooney's, but to most aircraft. We know our birds well enough not to need a PLACARD for everything in and out, but did you know that a single missing placard technically and legally renders your aircraft NON-AIRWORTHY? That it does, so you need to check your aircraft for the correct markings starting with the compass error card in which many are missing or unreadable. For those who's compass cards are there but barely visible from fading, MAKE A COPY NOW and replace the old one. ADDITIONALLY, there are umpteen interior placards and a bunch of exterior ones required by the FAA to reflect that which the aircraft manufacturer be installed as original and standard equipment. Below is an email I received recently which helped remind me to bring this OFTEN OVERLOOKED mandate to my attention:
>>>Hello, do you know where I can find instrument panel placards for a 1963 Mooney 20-C?
Also, I found your articles VERY informative. My 1963 manual says very little about how to operate, land etc. my Mooney. I have found a wealth of information on your website!
Thanks, Eileen
REPLY:
Hello Eileen. Nice to hear from you and thanks for the compliment on our website. We care about Mooney types like you!
The lack of Placards is prevalent in many Mooney aircraft and those owners don’t realize that without them, the aircraft is not airworthy.
The Maintenance/Parts/Service manual we provide will give you information on all placards required for your Mooney. Just click on the Maintenance CD button and make the purchase and I’ll get that right out to you.
Fly safe,
Rich zephro

Recent email from one of my favorite Mooney Mechanics:
zef, I DIDN’T BELIEVE WHAT I WAS SEEING Or Why you use a Mooney savvy shop Or Why you get a Pre-Purchase Or OH MY GOD!
I received a phone call asking if I would do a Pre-purchase on a 1966 Mooney M20E and I said sure. A date and time was agreed upon and the plane arrived as scheduled. She was very PURTY with her gleaming paint job. The plane was advertised as having a fresh Majored engine, New Paint and Leather interior (it only had the seats done, no carpet, or plastic).
I got the books and started going through them. That is when PURTY turned to NOT SO PURTY.
The first thing that jumped out at me was the Hartzell Propeller AD 06-18-15 and a notation in the AD log that said NA by model number. The prop is a Hartzell HC-C2YK-1BF s/n CH15207. (Note! no suffix)
The next entry that caught my eye was AD 77-08-06 Oil Cooler next to this AD was the notation that this was also NA by s/n. The AD applies to all s/n between 407 & 1219 the serial number of this aircraft was in the middle.
Further search did not show AD 02-26-01 fuel injection lines, having being done and on & on.
The books left something to be desired also. There weren’t any mention of oil changes, AD’s being complied with, and on and on. There was a notation that the nose gear tubes had been adjusted to the proper specification (see # 2 below)
My inspection of the aircraft showed the following Discrepancies/Concerns: (taken directly from the Pre-Purchase report)
1. AD 06-18-15 Hartzell Propeller Hub.
2. Nose gear over center out of specification, Spec 10 ft-lb. set at 30+ ft-lb.
3. Nose gear truss bent beyond limits of 1/32nd, needs to be replaced with OH unit
4. Nose gear trunion needs over sized bushing
5. Flap pump leaking
6. Left master cylinder leaking
7. Main gear lubrication questionable
8. Both main gear leakage boots missing
9. Adjust right nose gear and left main gear doors
10. Left rear heater hose needs replacing
11. VFR Only placard missing
12. Brake hoses brittle and stiff, need to be replaced
13. Fuel pump overboard line does not exit the cowl
14. Oil cooler, does not comply with AD
15. Needs M20-289-000 kit in aileron links
· Observations:
I thought that it was rather strange to have 3 steel and one Chrome cylinder on a fresh, 25- hour Major Overhaul. However the compressions were great and it had a nice paint job. We were not able to locate the shop that did the work. The prop was safety with a single strand of safety wire running from bolt to bolt. When the owner was contacted he informed us that his mechanic had assured him that everything was in order and that we must be mistaken. Furthermore the owner/seller had had a pre-purchase done at a Mooney Service Center less than 25 hours ago. He also said that he had contacted a Prop Shop and that they had confirmed that the Prop didn’t fall within the AD but when I showed the same Prop Shop the Prop log they confirmed my findings (God knows I have had enough Mooney’s fell into that AD). The purchaser said that he would split the cost of fixing the Discrepancies with the seller. At which the seller insisted there wasn’t anything wrong with the plane and that he would come and get it. He actually asked the buyer to deliver it to New Mexico and the buyer declined, as he didn’t want the liability. It is hard for me to believe that there are people still out there that buy planes in this condition and then will not believe that there is something wrong. I’m sure that he thought that the buyer and I had contrived the story to cheat him out of his PURTY airplane. I’m also sure that he did not have a pre-purchase done and he only saw the pretty paint job and the leather seats. Some times I wonder why I keep doing this. I never cease to be amazed.
After several days the seller called and said that it would be a while before he could come get the plane so could I go ahead and do the nose gear repairs which will include replacing the Truss with an overhaul unit, re-bushing the trunion with an oversized unit and setting the gear down limits to the proper specifications. This is a wise decision on his part and may just may keep his Purty airplane off its nose.
