Today’s Top Pick is a 1976 Beechcraft Baron 58P.

This Baron isn’t just another twin. It’s a pressurized, multiengine aircraft loaded with modern avionics and comfort features, making it a standout in its class. With a usable fuel capacity of 166 gallons, the aircraft is built for serious cross-country flights, allowing pilots to climb above weather and enjoy a smoother, faster ride.

The highlight of this 1976 model is its impressive glass panel. The cockpit is commanded by an Aspen Pro 1000 PFD, paired with a Garmin 750Xi for GPS, navigation, and communication. This setup is enhanced by a Garmin GTX 345 transponder for ADS-B In and Out, Century IV autopilot to reduce workload, and even Garmin FlightStream 510 for wireless connectivity with a tablet.

Performance comes from two Continental TSIO-520L1 310 hp engines, with the right engine having only 225 hours since major overhaul. The aircraft is also equipped with winglets and vortex generators for improved handling and performance. For flying in colder climates, it comes with deice boots and three-blade hot props.

The cabin is designed for comfort, featuring gray leather club seating, executive writing desk, and factory air conditioning. The interior is in excellent shape and even includes G&D-tinted window inserts and sheepskin covers for the front seats. The aircraft has always been hangared and comes with its original logbooks. It’s worth noting that it experienced a gear-up landing in 1985 and has been professionally repaired.

Priced at $229,000, this 1976 Beechcraft Baron 58P offers a fantastic opportunity to own a pressurized twin with a modern panel.
