N4157, my first, but after I traded it, was almost destroyed by a propective buyer by the Mooney bounce.   You get one bounce and if you haven't got the nose up and settling by the beginning of the second, go around...  It was later destroyed by another owner in a bad landing, that was also probably a mooney bounce.

I came in too hot one time.  Nosewheel first.  Started bouncing, each bounce getting higher.  Adding power made it worse.  I finally had the presence of mind to dump the flaps and survived the situation.  Bent prop.

The thing is hard to slow down but it sips gas and gets me there fast!  8gph @152kts true.

    Mooney, the only airplane you have to climb to land...
    I like 2 doors and high wings.  But they are fast, flew one for
    years.

        license.
        Any leads to nice aircraft to buy?
