N5251F

N5251F is a Mooney Ovation 3.  It is is a high-performance, single-engine, normally aspirated piston aircraft designed for owners who prioritize speed, efficiency, and long-range capability in a personal cross-country platform. It represents the most refined evolution of Mooney’s long-body airframe and is widely regarded as one of the fastest and most efficient normally aspirated singles ever produced.

Powered by a 310 horsepower Continental IO-550-G, the Ovation 3 delivers cruise speeds in excess of 190 KTAS while maintaining exceptional fuel efficiency for its performance class. The engine’s normally aspirated design keeps operating complexity and cost lower than turbocharged alternatives, while still providing strong performance into the mid-teens.

N5251F is equipped with a modern glass flight deck Garmin G1000 with WAAS and Synthetic Vision.
