Mooney Aircraft, The Ovation2 GX

About the Ovation2 GX

Diamond D-JET The Ovation2 GX is the fastest single-engine retractable, normally aspirated aircraft flying today. This is the aircraft you get when pulse-pounding performance flies in tight formation with unequaled value. Its high-performance pedigree is matched by its up-to-the minute technology, including the complete, all-glass Garmin G1000 integrated avionics suite - standard.

Avionics for the Ovation2 GX

Garmin G1000 Integrated Avionics Suite This is the all-glass, flat-panel cockpit with the technological muscle to match Mooney performance - bringing new levels of safety, simplicity and situational awareness to Mooney pilots. The Garmin G1000 consolidates and includes GFC 700 Automatic Flight Control System that displays all primary flight, navigation, engine and sensor data on crystal-sharp, sunlight-readable LCDs. And our Garmin system delivers benefits exclusive to Mooney: Flap and pitch-trim display. Aural call-outs. Dual-battery backup power for enhanced redundancy. And superior auto-pilot integration.

Cabin

If you've driven a high-performance car, you have an idea of how it feels to sit in the left seat of a Mooney. Hand-stitched leather seats fit you like a glove. Front seat belts include an inertia reel and an AMSAFE airbag, standard on all models. Additional seat options include oxygen and Bose headset connections. Back seat options include either two individual seats, which recline, or a three-place bench seat (great for the kids). Pilots as tall as 6'8'' fly in comfort.
