**1979 Mooney M20K 231 – C-GMKZ** A well-equipped 1979 Mooney M20K 231 offering the speed, efficiency, and high-altitude capability that has made the turbocharged Mooney a popular choice for serious cross-country flying. Powered by the turbocharged, fuel-injected Continental TSIO-360 six-cylinder engine, C-GMKZ has approximately **1,186 hours SMOH** and only **65 hours since top overhaul**. The aircraft is equipped with a two-blade heated constant-speed propeller, built-in oxygen system, electric retractable landing gear, and 72 gallons of usable fuel. The M20K 231 combines excellent cruise performance with Mooney’s famously efficient airframe. Its laminar-flow wing and direct torque-tube flight controls provide responsive handling while allowing owners to cover considerable distances without the fuel consumption associated with larger high-performance singles. C-GMKZ is also well equipped for IFR and cross-country operations. The panel features a **Garmin GNS 430W WAAS GPS/Nav/Com**, Garmin SL30, GTX 330ES Mode S transponder with ADS-B Out, Century 41 autopilot, and an Edo-Aire Mitchell primary HSI. A Garmin GPSMAP 696 coupled with the 430W provides additional navigation capability, complemented by Garmin GXM40 XM Weather. Additional equipment includes a PMA8000B audio panel, King DME and ADF, ACK 406 MHz ELT, and an EI UBG-16 engine analyzer. The windscreen has also been upgraded with thicker replacement glass. For a pilot looking for an efficient step-up aircraft with turbocharged performance, retractable gear, onboard oxygen, capable IFR avionics, and excellent cross-country capability, **C-GMKZ represents a compelling Mooney 231 opportunity.** **Highlights:** - Continental TSIO-360 turbocharged, fuel-injected engine - 1,186 hours SMOH - Only 65 hours since top overhaul - Two-blade heated constant-speed propeller - Built-in oxygen system - Electric retractable landing gear - 72 gallons usable fuel - Garmin GNS 430W WAAS - Garmin SL30 Nav/Com - Garmin GTX 330ES Mode S / ADS-B Out - Century 41 Autopilot - Garmin GPSMAP 696 - Garmin GXM40 XM Weather - PMA8000B Audio Panel - Primary HSI - King DME and ADF - EI UBG-16 Engine Analyzer - ACK 406 MHz ELT - Upgraded thicker windscreen
