-Stored in climate controlled hangar, all logs since new. I've been getting a lot of questions about Experimental Airworthiness Cert. This is a Non-STCed conversion, pretty much the same as the Tradewinds, it has the added front braces for motor-mount strength, etc. The air-frame is as strong as the original A36 TC Bonanza. The FAA only has one place for a non-stc engine conversion; "Experimental" Classification, with an "Exhibition" sub-category. This happens more that you think, I know of at least one Beech Starship, and many other turbine conversion that are under the same thing. Please feel free to call me to discuss, I’ve owned many "Experimental’s” over the years. I can email a link to all log books, Serious buyers only, John 717-515-3434 Some have asked who did the conversion: Henry Van Kesteren: He established VK Aircraft, a company formed to “only deal in airplanes that interest me.” Over the years, he bought countless aircraft that “interested” him and sold them to pilots only after he was confident they were qualified and capable. After building a Lancair IV-P, through VK Aircraft, he continued in experimental work, developing several STCs to enhance aircraft performance. He developed a prototype turbine Piper Malibu and Beechcraft Bonanza. In 2001, the FAA recognized his achievements with the Charles Taylor Master Mechanic’s Award. In 2013, the FAA again recognized his achievements with the Wright Brothers Master Pilot Award. Van held the following FAA Certificates: ATP Airplane Multiengine Land 707’s, 720’s, Lears, Citations, Sabreliners, Eclipse Jet Commercial Privileges: Airplane Single Engine Land & Sea Rotorcraft Helicopter Instrument Helicopter A & P License He has been a current instructor since 1945 with the following: Airplane Single and Multi Engine Rotorcraft-Helicopter Instrument Airplane and Helicopter He seems like a qualified builder :-) |
