This 1979 Beechcraft E55 Baron (N6055J, serial TE-1160) presents a well-maintained twin with a consistent ownership history, having had only two owners since new and the current owner since 1982. The airframe shows 5,225 total hours with a useful load of 1,608 lbs, supported by complete logbooks and no damage history. Power comes from twin Continental IO-520 engines (285 HP each), factory remanufactured in 2012 with 2,012 hours since overhaul, paired with three-blade Hartzell props overhauled 475 hours ago. The aircraft features full de-ice boots, prop and windshield anti-ice systems, and 166 gallons of usable fuel for extended range.
Avionics include a King KFC-200 autopilot with flight director, slaved HSI, Bendix RDR-150 radar, dual Collins digital comms and navs, a Garmin GMA-340 audio panel, and an Appaero Stratus ESG transponder with ADS-B Out. The interior boasts grey leather seats and sidewalls with twill wool blend carpet (renewed in 2008), while the exterior retains its original Whisper Gray paint with burgundy and black stripes in good condition. Maintenance highlights include a December 2024 annual inspection, a completed wing spar inspection at 5,189.3 hours (next due at 5,289.3), and mostly Beech service center maintenance history. IFR certification is valid until November 2026. Priced at $179,000, this Baron includes Baron School airframe training.
