    This is a great representation of Mooney's! I just recently purchased a Mooney M20J and absolutely love it! I started a KZread channel where I use my plane to repossess vehicles cross-country.

    Thanks. I do not like waffle. Keep it to the point. That is Northern California and it's the airport access road to the back lot of hangars that has not been built yet. Nice backdrop.

    F and G Mooney's had the full length rudder as well, it was the short body mooneys that had the short rudder.

    Only the early short body Mooneys have the short rudder. Later C's an d E's have the full length rudder. This video was about the J model.

    Does that tail design make any diff in drag because of its unique design? Always wondered...

    The vertical and horizontal surfaces having their leading edges at 90 degrees to the direction of flight gives the surfaces max efficiency. The "leaning forward tail" is supposed to reach into the stall sooner and make recovery easier.

    The J and K are the same everywhere except the engine. The J (201) has a 200 HP Injected four cylinder Lycoming with a 2000 hour TBO ( and it gets there) while the K (231) has a six cylinder 210 HP injected, Turbo-charged Continental with a 1800 hour TBO (and it does not get there) Basically the 231 is a turbocharged 201.
