Each day, the team at Aircraft For Sale picks an airplane that catches our attention because it is unique, represents a good deal, or has other interesting qualities. You can read Aircraft For Sale: Today’s Top Pick at FLYINGMag.com daily.
Today’s Top Pick is a 1991 Beechcraft F33A Bonanza.
Some aircraft age better than others. I think most pilots know this, though the Beechcraft Bonanza family makes a handy example if you ever have to prove the theory.
Perhaps age really is just a number for Bonanzas, as even models that are decades old seem to hold on tight to their value and often compete in the market with far newer airplanes.
The aircraft for sale today is particularly appealing because of its condition and a number of upgrades that improve its already strong performance and versatility. Pilots shopping for a high-end, four-place retractable will notice that this Bonanza has coveted upgrades in the engine bay and on the panel that bring it in line with contemporary models. The aircraft is equipped in a manner that would make it an ideal cross-country mount for family and business travel.
This 1991 F33A Bonanza has 1,766 hours on the airframe and 160 hours since overhaul on its Continental IO-550 engine. The engine underwent a RAM conversion and is equipped with a Whirlwind III turbo-normalizer. The aircraft is equipped with a three-blade heated propeller, which has operated for 160 hours since overhaul.
Additional equipment includes B&C standby alternator, Turbo GAMI fuel injectors, D’Shannon engine cooling baffles, Rammer II intercooler, 74 gallons usable fuel, LED landing light, strobes, large baggage door, shoulder harnesses on all seats, and USB outlets.
The IFR panel features a Garmin 10.6-inch G500TXi PFD/MFD, Garmin GTN 750Xi GPS/nav/com with WAAS, GNC 355 GPS/nav/com with WAAS, GMA 345 audio panel with intercom, and GTX 345W transponder with ADS-B In and Out, Garmin weather and traffic, GFC 500 autopilot, standby airspeed, altimeter, and turn and bank indicators.
Pilots seeking a top-rated high-performance piston single with four seats and power to spare should consider this 1991 Beechcraft F33A Bonanza, which is available for $450,000 on AircraftForSale.
