1957 Beechcraft 35 BonanzaSingle-Engine Piston Aircraft

This 1957 Beechcraft H35 Bonanza (N5471D) presents a well-maintained example with significant upgrades and a fresh annual inspection. The airframe shows 4,695 total hours with a corrosion-free structure, featuring a new 1.3mm aluminum floor that saves approximately 31 pounds over the original wood design. The Continental IO-470C fuel-injected engine has 265 hours since major overhaul, equipped with GAMIjectors for optimized performance and a Challenger oil filter system. The propeller shows 893 hours SMOH and is described as being in excellent shape. The aircraft includes 90-gallon Osborne tip tanks (formerly Brittain) for extended range, along with a built-in oxygen system for high-altitude operations.

Avionics include a Garmin GNS 430 (WAAS), Uavionix ADS-B Out (TailBeacon), King transponder, NAV/COM, and ADF, with USB ports for iPad connectivity. The D'Shannon panel upgrade provides a modern layout, complemented by a speed-slope windshield and new Cygnet dual yokes. LED lighting has been installed throughout for landing gear, flaps, and landing lights. The exterior paint is rated 9/10, while the functional 1980s-era interior could benefit from modernization. Documentation is complete, including logs detailing a properly repaired early gear-up landing with no current structural issues. Performance figures indicate a cruise speed of 165-175 KTAS at optimal altitudes with a useful load enhanced to 1,100-1,150 lbs. This turnkey Bonanza is ready for immediate flight or future avionics upgrades.
