Airframe, Structure and Systems
The airframe underwent a deep restoration: fully disassembled, inspected, renewed, and reassembled with new or re-chromed hardware. Its finish is protected by a high gloss clear coat applied to concours standards.
The Wing Spar STC enhances structural integrity, while the Extended Luggage STC increases utility and mission flexibility. All high pressure hoses, braking components, and wear items were renewed.
Most impressively, the entire aircraft was rewired from nose to tail, an exceptionally rare undertaking that delivers unmatched reliability and long term electrical stability.
Landing Gear, Flaps and Controls
The landing gear, among the most intricate systems on the Bonanza, was restored to near zero-time condition. The motor and gearbox were overhauled, linkages renewed, shimmy damper rebuilt, and the indication system replaced and rigged with precision.
Flaps and controls received equal attention: rebuilt actuators, renewed flex shafts, restored cables and pulleys. Operational feel is crisp, smooth, and confidence inspiring, reminiscent of a factory fresh machine.
Garmin Glass Cockpit
This aircraft features a modern Garmin flight deck that transforms the flying experience.
The Garmin G3X Touch display offers clarity, synthetic vision, engine monitoring, and situational awareness in an intuitive format. The Garmin G5 provides independent redundancy, while the GFC 500 autopilot with envelope protection delivers smooth, precise control.
Navigation with the GTN 650Xi is fast and fluid. ADS-B traffic and weather via the GTX345, plus wireless flight plan transfer and database updates with FlightStream 510, make preflight and enroute operations seamless. Inflight Internet adds a layer of connected convenience uncommon in this class.
Every switch, panel piece, breaker, and wiring harness is new. This is truly a reborn cockpit.
Cabin and Interior - Italian Leather Collection
The cabin evokes the atmosphere of a refined touring automobile rather than a traditional light aircraft.
Hand stitched Italian leather seats provide luxurious tactile feel and long range comfort. Diamond stitching adds depth and visual elegance, complemented by matching sidewalls, carpets, and headliner.
Chrome finished hardware, leather wrapped armrests, and precision finished plastics complete the upscale environment. Enhanced insulation reduces noise, transforming the cabin into a calm, premium travel space.
