JamesMc[Could be this you are looking for.http://metzgergva.de/default_e.htm]That was them, they made the defualt planes quite flyable.Similar speed planes to the Bravo might include the ES Cirrus SR22 which is great fun to fly; the Lancair Columbia 400 (v nice); Glassair III; or faster the PC-12/PC9ThanksPeterH

A Mooney's claim to fame, is that they are very aerodynamically "clean".. hence they don't want to slow down.. especially while descending. While there could be an argument for speed-brakes on just about any airplane.. they come at a weight/cost expense that just isn't justified on a 200hp airplane. I've flown a modified Cessna 182, that had a 300hp Cessna 210 engine in it.. and speed-brakes for rapid descending (they were actually Mooney brakes fitted to it).. but that was a SKYDIVING airplane... where getting down quickly is a requirement.. The Bravo is a FAST expensive airplane.. speed-brakes are of little thought at that horsepower, and that price. The M20J isn't much more airplane than a Piper Arrow, or Cessna Cardinal. The other reason for speed-brakes on the Bravo, is that it's turbo-charged.. requiring much slower power reductions (shock cooling).. so the brakes help during an expidited descent.

Thanks, Brett. That clarifies.
