Design and development

The M10T is a three-seat, single engine, low-wing, tricycle gear composite aircraft. Although similar in configuration to the Ercoupe-based Mooney M10, the aircraft is an all-new design of composite construction with sidestick controls. An M10J is in parallel development with a larger 155 hp (116 kW) engine and retractable landing gear.
