Low time Beech Baron 55 piston twin. A changing mission brings this low time, nicely equipped, well maintained, and affordable Beech piston twin to the market.
A B55 model that's been upgraded to the Colemill 600 300hp conversion, providing E55+ level performance via specially-modified Continental IO-520E engines and mated props.
2883 TTAF, 706 SMOH engines and 341 SPOH (props).
Max T/O GW = 5121; basic weight = 3517; useful load = 1604 lbs
Super-impressive single-engine climb performance - easily at/above 500 FPM at sea level - leaves other B55 models with the IO-470 engines and most other GA twins in the dust. Provides significantly improved safety margins, especially critical for those anticipating hard IFR, mountainous, or overwater flying, besides the other benefits that come with a twin vs single engine aircraft.
Easily achieves a normal, two-engine climb of 1700 FPM and 200KTS cruise at 75% power at 5100lbs Gross Weight. This versatile piston twin has very stable characteristics through all flight phases, making it an exceptional, rock-solid instrument platform. Several very practical, nice glass and digital panel upgrades to include: Aspen PFD 1000, Garmin G5, ADS-B in/out, JPI EDM 790, Sharon digital fuel flow, and S-Tec 55AP/FD. Beechcraft comfort and reliability, this beauty flies very nice, fully coupled ILS glide slope and WAAS-enabled GPS vertical command guidance approaches. Most of its total time logged by private owners. Very few training hours and hangared most of the time in the dry western states.
