Beechcraft Baron Aircraft (Beech Baron)
The Beechcraft Baron is the twin-engine sibling of the Bonanza — one of the most respected piston twins ever built. The earlier 55-series (1961-1982) is the lighter, four-to-five-seat variant with conventional doors; the 58-series (1970-now) is stretched to six seats with double aft club doors and remains in production today as the Garmin-equipped G58. The Baron pairs Bonanza build quality and handling with the redundancy and speed of a second engine, powered by twin Continental IO-470/520/550s depending on variant. There are currently 192 Barons for sale, from $45,690 for an early 55-series to over $1,945,000 for a late G58.
