1972 Beechcraft E55 BaronMulti-Engine Piston Aircraft • Peyton, CO, USA

This 1972 Beechcraft E55 Baron (N68JP) presents as a well-documented twin with low-time engines and a modernized panel. With only 250 hours since major overhaul on both Continental IO-520-C engines (1,700-hour TBO) and matching Hartzell propellers installed in 2020, the powertrain shows careful maintenance. The airframe has 7,800 total hours and carries a substantial 1,846 lb useful load. The aircraft has complete logs documenting two gear-up landings (1974 and 1998), both repaired to factory standards with FAA 337 forms.

The 2012 panel refresh features a full Garmin suite including WAAS-enabled GNS430W, GTX330ES ADS-B Out, GDL50 ADS-B In...
