Mooney M20G fuel capacity
The source-linked configuration represents 52 U.S. gallons of usable fuel at an arm of 48.4 inches.
Fuel is a significant loading item in the M20G calculation. The represented 52 U.S. gallons usable must be evaluated with the individual aircraft's empty-weight data, occupants and baggage rather than treated only as a capacity figure.
Mooney M20G model applicability and configuration
Individual M20G aircraft may differ because of approved modifications and equipment changes. Use the current approved documentation and weight and balance records for the specific aircraft.
Mooney M20G vs M20F
| Specification | M20G | M20F represented configuration |
|---|---|---|
| Engine family | Lycoming O-360 | Lycoming IO-360 |
| Maximum weight represented | 2,525 lb | 2,740 lb |
| Usable fuel represented | 52 US gal | 64 US gal |
Mooney M20G weight and balance
The source-linked M20G calculator represents a maximum takeoff and landing weight of 2,525 lb, 52 U.S. gallons usable fuel and a 120 lb baggage limit.
The model-level reference identifies a 120 lb maximum combined baggage load. The actual permissible baggage load can still be constrained by total weight and center-of-gravity position for a particular flight.
