More likely a fuel or engine problem, Mooneys are pretty high performance aircraft.

rough translation i think? i guess they didnt ask about the "dont cross" signs...

Interviewer: "What are the rules?"
Girl: "You can't go anywhere unless it's a cycle path or ACIRE (zones of restricted vehicle access in this city)... uhm... it's still not mandatory to wear a helmet ... and you can't wear headphones with music ... and I think at night you can go anywhere".
Interviewer: "perfect"
Girl: (still finishing her answer)... "from like 10pm, more or less"
Interviewer: "you pass!!! Thank you!"
Girl: Byeee
