Every day, the team at Aircraft For Sale chooses an airplane that catches our attention because it is unique, a good deal, or has other qualities we find interesting. You can read Aircraft For Sale: Today’s Top Pick at FLYINGMag.com daily.
Today’s Top Pick is a 1982 Beechcraft F33A Bonanza.
This particular F33A Bonanza represents a standout example of a well-maintained and thoughtfully upgraded aircraft. With no damage history to report, complete logbooks, and an annual inspection completed in October 2025, this Bonanza is ready for an ambitious owner to take the keys. A purchase of this pristine aircraft also comes along with Bonanza flight training to ensure the new operator is comfortable with the aircraft’s platform.
The panel has been updated with a suite of modern Garmin avionics. The centerpiece is a Garmin G3X display, which serves as the hub for flight planning and navigation. This is complemented by a Garmin GFC 500 Autopilot with altitude preselect, which drastically reduces pilot workload. For situational awareness, a Garmin GTX 345 transponder provides ADS-B In and Out, with traffic and weather displayed on the platform.

Over $40,000 was spent upgrading the aircraft’s interior, with new two-tone custom gray leather seats, new carbon-fiber side panels, and custom floor boards. The cabin has a spacious storage compartment, perfect for travel on cross-country flights. The exterior is equally clean, matching the inside’s muted tones that give the aircraft a uniform aesthetic, both inside and out.
Listed at $325,000, this 1982 Beechcraft F33A Bonanza represents a fantastic opportunity for a discerning buyer. It is an ideal aircraft for personal travel, business trips, or simply enjoying the pure pleasure of flight.
