Mooney has introduced the M20TN Acclaim high-performance piston, an upgrade of the Bravo, production of which was halted this year because of declining demand. With a cruise speed of at least 230kt (425km/h) at 25,000ft (7,600m), the Acclaim is the fastest Mooney yet and the company’s first new model in more than a decade.
Two aircraft are already flying, one of which was unveiled at the Sun n Fun show in Lakeland, Florida last week. The Acclaim is powered by a 280hp (210kW) turbo-normalised Teledyne Continental TSIO-550G, its twin turbochargers and dual intercoolers maintaining power to altitude.
