Comments

This President II converted Baron is in very good condition.  I have flown this plane over 20 hours in the last two months and have found it to be in excellent condition.  It is rigged properly, quiet with no air leaks, no oil consumption or leaks, with nice balanced props.  The Garmin 340, 330, 530 and GDL 69 were installed a year ago at a cost or $35,000.  With the satellite weather, TAWS, WAAS, WX-1000, full deice, and the 550 Colemill engines, you have a very capable twin.
