Aircraft › Mooney › M20 Series
The Mooney M20 family includes multiple closely related high-performance single-engine aircraft variants. Individual M20 designations differ in production periods, engines, maximum weights and center-of-gravity applicability.
Mooney M20 Series overview
The Mooney M20 series spans several generations of retractable-gear aircraft. Common variants include the M20C, M20E, M20F and M20G.
Model designation matters because cabin length, engine installation, maximum weight and loading limits can vary between variants.

How to identify the correct M20 Series model
Use the exact designation from the aircraft records. The M20C spans an overall 1962–1978 production envelope, the M20E from 1964–1975, the M20F from 1966–1977 and the M20G from 1968–1970.
Some Mooney models had production interruptions, so these ranges should not be interpreted as uninterrupted annual manufacture.
M20 Series model differences
Model variants within the same aircraft family can differ in engine installation, maximum weight, fuel system, loading stations, baggage limits and center-of-gravity envelope. Check the limits and loading data for the exact aircraft model and configuration.
Mooney M20 Series weight and balance
Different M20 variants can use different maximum weights, fuel capacities, baggage limits and CG envelopes. Select the exact aircraft model before performing a calculation.
The individual aircraft's current empty weight and moment or arm remain authoritative.
