The Mooney M10T was a light training aircraft that Mooney Aircraft developed in the middle of the 2010s but never put into production. It is a three-seat, single-engine, low-wing monoplane with tricycle landing gear, built of composite materials and flown with a sidestick rather than a yoke. Although it shares its layout with the older Ercoupe-based Mooney M10 Cadet, it is an entirely new design. The fixed-gear M10T was to be powered by a four-cylinder Continental CD-135 diesel of 135 horsepower, and a parallel M10J with a 155 horsepower diesel and retractable gear was planned alongside it. Mooney intended to build the type at Chino, California, with the option of Kerrville, Texas, and also considered assembly in a new plant in Hunan province, China. The proof-of-concept prototype made its first flight on 23 December 2015, but in April 2017 the company announced that development was cancelled, saying that what it had learned would be used in its next-generation piston aircraft.
