Description
If you’re looking for a fast, reliable, and economical long range cross-country aircraft with plenty of time left on the engine, it’s hard to beat this well-equipped Beechcraft N35 Bonanza. With upgraded avionics, excellent performance, and a proven ownership history, this aircraft delivers tremendous value for pilots looking to cover serious distances without serious operating costs. Due to a change in life circumstances and the owner’s loss of medical certification, this Bonanza is now available for its next owner.
