The veritable Bonanza and Baron reach the end of the line

[Reynard]

Maybe viewed as the very high end of recreational flying, but I’m sure a lot of people here admire and respect Beechcraft aircraft ….even the ‘doctor killer’.

 

Textron are rationalising their product line and moving this segment to SETP.

Sad day.

 

Baron/Bonanza are incredibly handsome aircraft.

 

The replacement -Denali is somewhat lacking in the looks department and appear to be a much larger (Class) of aircraft to the B & B.😈

It may be a decision they regret.

The market has moved on. Plenty of pilots of questionable ability can now buy a turbine aircraft. We can only hope the pilots of existing bonanzas and barons are kind to them and not write them off.

Another textron aircraft that may be dead in the water.

Full flying tails perched at the top if a slim fin. Not for ME thanks. The more conventional Cessna product Looks better. Not sure that RED Lycoming derivative, was a Howling success. Stroked  from the original. ALL BIG Money .   Nev
