Description
This 1978 Beechcraft Bonanza V35B is a fantastic example of a classic Bonanza that has been thoughtfully upgraded with the performance, avionics, and comfort today's owner expects. At the heart of this V35B is an IO-550 engine upgrade, giving the aircraft a significant boost in performance and making it an excellent platform for both cross-country travel and everyday flying. The avionics package has been modernized with a highly capable Garmin suite, including Garmin GNS 430W, GNC 344, dual Garmin G5s, and a Garmin GFC 500 autopilot. The combination provides excellent situational awareness, GPS capability, modern flight instrumentation, and the precision and reliability of a modern digital autopilot. Inside, the aircraft has been completely elevated with a brand-new saddle tan leather interior. The fresh interior gives this V35B a sophisticated, comfortable cabin while retaining the timeless character that makes the Bonanza such a desirable aircraft.
