Very clean and fast Turbo Bonanza, proactively maintained and flown regularly.

The Beechcraft B36TC Bonanza is a turbocharged, six-seat, single-engine aircraft known for its performance, range, and comfort. It's a popular choice in the single-engine market, favored for its ability to fly at higher altitudes thanks to its turbocharged engine and factory oxygen system. The B36TC is a variant of the Bonanza family, which has been in continuous production longer than any other airplane in history.

The complete and contiguous logbooks of Bonanza N668DE indicate that it has lived and been serviced in the southwest U.S. its entire life. Most recently, this beautiful B36TC has lived in the dry desert of Phoenix, Arizona, where its owner has proactively maintained the aircraft with no expenses spared. Its recent Garmin avionics upgrades make it a fantastic and very capable IFR platform. Combined with its turbocharged power and factory O2, N668DE has great range and cruise speed.

Please carefully review the specs, the detailed high resolution image gallery, and the walkaround video below. A significant effort has been made to fully review all logbooks and document the specifications and history of this aircraft. If you reach out to me, I can digitally share all logbooks and important documents.

Aircraft Evaluation

As the broker, I make a significant effort to represent an aircraft in as much detail as possible. I share with you not only the benefits and features I've discovered, but also the issues or concerns that I found during my extensive intake and deep logbook review process. I present dozens of detailed, high resolution images, and an extensive walkaround video. Please review this material in detail. All logbooks and other important documents are professionally scanned, well organized, and available for your review.

My goal is that any Buyer making the effort to look at an aircraft in person can first see the aircraft "virtually" on this web page.

Exterior - Overall, the exterior of this B36TC is in really nice condition. The paint shows significant depth and shine, and is pleasing to the eye. A very critical eye may notice slightly less shine on the tops of the wings, but most would not catch that.

The aircraft is always hangared, so the Plexiglas windows, with their G&D tinted thermal inserts, look to be in good condition. The windshield has some minor crazing which is difficult to spot, and is not an issue.

The aluminum is in very good condition. I was challenged to find any issues with the skin. I did notice one minor ding on the bottom of one of the factory wing leading edge vortex generators (it's out of sight unless you lean over). The other vortex generator has a minor paint crack, but again it's really hard to spot unless someone points it out to you. Other than that, I can confidently say that the exterior is in near perfect condition.

The Image Gallery (below) contains close-up, detailed, high resolution images so that you can get a great view of the aircraft exterior.

Instrument Panel - The IFR instrument panel recently underwent a significant upgrade with Garmin avionics. Garmin's top of the line GTN750Xi touchscreen GPS Navigator is the star of the radio stack, along with a Garmin GNC355 (backup GPS Navigator). Both units also serve as COM radios.

Dual Garmin GI275s serve as HSI and Attitude Indicator, eliminating the need for any vacuum systems. ADS-B In and Out services are provided by a Garmin GTX345 transponder. And, Garmin's fantastic GFC500 2-axis digital autopilot, with integrated LVL functionality, is coupled to the GPS navigators allowing fully automated IFR approaches.

Please refer to the "Avionics and Equipment" list above for complete details, and to the Image Gallery below for close-up images.

Interior - Though the interior was completely redone 12 years ago, it looks nearly brand new. The leather upholstery is in nice condition, the carpet does not show any appreciable wear, and the side panels, doors, and headliner look classy and clean. The stowable writing table in the rear cabin has been refurbished and looks beautiful.

Overall, the interior is clean, smells good, and is in really nice condition. Please look at the high resolution images in the Image Gallery for more details on the interior condition.

Overall - Bonanza N668DE is one of the cleanest, nicest B36TCs currently on the market. It has excellent cosmetics and a very nice Garmin-equipped IFR panel. While its strong Continental TSIO-520 300 hp engine has high hours, it has a clean oil analysis history and continues to run strongly. The current owner of this Bonanza does not hesitate to put his family into this aircraft and go on extended holidays to faraway destinations.

Please reach out to me so that I may answer any questions you have.
