Detailed Description

A devoted pilot spent decades caring for this V-tail Bonanza, and it shows in every logbook page - complete, scanned, and ready for your review. Now his grandson, himself a licensed pilot, is offering it for sale as part of the estate. The aircraft has not been flown in recent years but has been regularly started and kept in running condition, and comes with an annual as of November 2025.

N17VM has approximately 4,300 total hours - solid for a V35B with a well-documented maintenance history. It is IFR-capable, weather-equipped with a stormscope, features extended-range wingtip tanks, air conditioning, and a full suite of cockpit monitoring equipment, all with paperwork on file. A rare chance to own a well-loved, meticulously maintained V-tail with a mid-life engine and complete logs - ready for the next pilot to make it their own. Contact the seller for logs and full details.

Remarks

Last annual completed November 1, 2025.

Aircraft has not been flown in three years but has been regularly started and maintained. Original owner, a devoted pilot, is deceased - his grandson, also a licensed pilot, is selling as part of the estate.

Priced accordingly to reflect time on ground and avionics upgrades a buyer will want.
