IO-550 - NDH - Exceptional Maintenance -
Summary
This 1981 Beechcraft A36 Bonanza won the EAA Outstanding Beechcraft Single Engine award at the Oshkosh Airventure in 2019 when it was purchase by its current owner and it's perhaps the nicest C33A we've ever seen. The airplane recently underwent a complete top overhaul with new cylinders to comply with an AD against the ECI cylinders that were installed on the engine. The airplane has been flown 700 hours since 2018 and it's being offered for sale because the owner has upgraded to an A36 Bonanza.
