Description
Here is a great opportunity to own a solid, honest A36 Bonanza that delivers true book performance. N46LE has been thoughtfully transformed with a full glass-panel avionics suite, centered on the Garmin GFC-600 digital autopilot paired with dual Garmin G5 electronic flight instruments for attitude and HSI & GTN750. It is a comfortable, capable six-seat cross-country machine that is ready to fly today. The Continental IO-520-BA (285 HP) has approximately 1,430 hours since factory remanufacture and runs strong and economical, and the three-blade McCauley propeller has only 100 hours since overhaul. When overhaul time eventually arrives, this airframe is an ideal candidate for the popular IO-550 300 HP conversion, a well-documented upgrade that adds real performance and resale value. At typical utilization that day is still years away, so the buyer enjoys a proven, efficient powerplant now and a built-in value play down the road. Book cruise in the mid-160s (knots), seating for six, and the legendary Bonanza handling that has made the A36 the definitive single-engine traveling airplane for decades.
