This 1973 Beechcraft E55 Baron presents as a well-maintained twin-engine aircraft with 11,710 total hours on the airframe, currently positioned as either a multi-engine trainer or high-speed IFR transport. The Continental IO-520-CB8 engines show 30 hours since overhaul on the left and 444 hours on the right, with Hartzell propellers at 776 and 845 hours since overhaul respectively. The aircraft features a Garmin-equipped panel including a GNS430 GPS/COM/NAV system, King KX165 NAV/COM, KT74 ADS-B Out transponder, and Century III autopilot, making it IFR-capable with dual artificial horizons and altimeters for redundancy.
Performance figures include a max speed of 208 knots and cruise at 195 knots, with a 2,404 kg MTOW and 1,604 kg basic weight. The aircraft has undergone significant maintenance with the spar box center section kit fitted and wing bolt replacement due in 2031. Additional equipment includes a Codan 20-channel SSB HF transceiver, NATO ground power receptacle, and four-place interior with passenger amenities. The next annual inspection is due April 2025, and the engines' TBO status requires confirmation. The seller notes the props are "xxx to run" (condition to be verified) and describes the aircraft as "neat and tidy."
