Interior & Exterior

Interior Year: 2023

Interior Notes: Six-place cabin features classic Beechcraft comfort with club-style seating. Upholstered in gray fabric with herringbone inserts and tan vinyl trim, the seats are in good condition with light wear. Matching tan and cream side panels, armrests, and accents create a warm and inviting cabin environment. Carpet was replaced in 2023, giving the interior a fresh, clean appearance that complements the classic cabin styling.

Exterior Notes: Finished in a timeless white base with bold blue and red accent striping, this Bonanza carries the classic Beechcraft ramp appeal. The paint presents well with a clean and polished shine. Control surfaces and seams show solid fit and finish, and the aircraft's lines remain sharp and elegant. The turbocharged cowling, wing leading edges, and tail surfaces are in good condition with only minor wear consistent with age.
