Beechcraft Sundowner - Really That Good? History, Review And Costs

[@screddot7074]

Loved my C-23 but if you want to make 10,000 ft on a warm day, you may be at your destination before you reach that altitude. Could have used a 200 hp engine, but it was a comfortable and very capable airplane.

I own a Beechcraft Sierra, solid plane!! 200hp retract gear and it has so much freaking room. The baggage door is massive too. I have right at 1k pound useful limit and cruise at 135kn. I bought it in 2020 before the boom for only 63k and it's fully IFR with a 430w. Prices are insane today, I probably wouldn't buy a plane in this market. Still, they have a huge beech aero club network on Facebook to use. Good luck with these!

thoughts on a purchasing a sundowner in this market? Why do you think the market is so high right now - because aviation is the hot career path right now?

Almost bought a sundowner for my first plane, but the 72 cherokee 140 had piper-aire! I live in SE Texas, so air conditioning wins.

Earlier today I made a comment meant mostly as a joke, but I came across pretty rude, and sort of like a "Karen". I deleted it and I'm sorry - I like your channel too much to make stupid comments!
