1981 Beechcraft A36 BonanzaSingle-Engine Piston Aircraft

This 1981 Beechcraft A36 Bonanza (N38507, serial E-1831) presents as a well-equipped six-seat piston single with 3,300 total airframe hours and a useful load of 1,089 lbs. The aircraft features a 285 HP IO-520-BB engine with 98 hours since major overhaul (1,700-hour TBO) and a three-blade Hartzell propeller with 1,035 hours since overhaul (98 hours since IRAN/reseal). Notable performance enhancements include a STOL conversion for short-field operations and approach flaps, complemented by factory air conditioning and GAMI fuel injectors for optimized engine performance.

The panel showcases a capable IFR suite centered around a Garmin GNS-430W WAAS GPS/Nav/Com with ILS/LPV capability, coupled to a King KFC-200 autopilot with flight director and slaved HSI. Secondary navigation is provided by a Garmin Aera 660 GPS with ADS-B traffic/weather and a King KNS-80 RNAV/DME. Safety systems include a WX-10 Stormscope, GTX-330 transponder with ADS-B Out, and standby attitude indicator. The tan leather interior is described as very good, though the tender yellow exterior with rust and camel stripes requires new paint. Recent maintenance includes a June 2024 windshield replacement, with annual inspection due July 2025 and IFR certification valid through September 2026.
