#17 1978 Baron B55 For Sale - Quick Test Flight to Oxnard and Back
Рет қаралды 117,934
Күн бұрынIn this video we are flying our 1978 Baron B55 that we currently have for sale. We wanted to take the plane to Camarillo and drop something off but the runway closed just as we were approaching so we decided to go to Oxnard and still completed the mission. The Baron B55 is a great x-country plane with lots of performance and plenty of room. If you're in the market, please feel free to contact me.

I am an airline captain and haven’t been in a small plane in probably 23+ years but for the first time in my life I’m thinking about buying a plane. I have watched this video several times and have drooled over the listing for weeks. Would it be about 35 grand to overhaul the other engine? Can you usually include that in the aircraft loan? I figure a g4 engine monitor and gps and one engine overhaul and that’s pretty much all you would need?

Agree - your estimates pretty close. Really like this airplane as well - we sold and set to close soon. We do have another 55 we’re working on getting on the market.

@nobodysbusiness4130 5 ай бұрын
I believe that in 1975 they greatly simplified the fuel system, no real fuel management except you have to make sure you have some. Big plus. Fuelers are often looking for the extra fuel caps but there is only 1 per wing. You can load 6 passengers but not with full fuel (136 usable). Better make sure 5th and 6th seats have little tiny kids or a lot less fuel than topped off. Useful load is north of 1500 lbs but with full fuel youre left with about 700 lbs. 3 fat guys and full fuel and you’re at max weight. Then you have to make sure you’re in the weight and balance envelope. Easy with ForeFlight set up right. It can get dicey at max weight. I flew my 78 Baron from ABQ to ca central coast at 2150 or 2200 and pumped 93 gallons on arrival so I had 43 gallons left. Yes, it took an extra 30 or 40 minutes but I didn’t have to land for gas enroute. I think the trip was 4.5 hours, 725 nm ish. When I did the math I used about 21 gph. Great airplane, very stable and easy to fly. As with all light twins, stay away from Vmc. Lots of dead guys out there after messing with that for the sake of training. Rotate at 84 kts, positive rate gear up, and accelerate to blueline 99 kts. Only takes a few seconds.

Wow look at that departure, could have filed IFR and brushed up on your old school IFR skills.

Nice video...if given the option, I'd go with the Seneca V over a Baron. Wider cabin, three screens, and counter-rotating props. :)

Comparing a Baron to a Seneca is like comparing a Bentley to a Kia

how do you rate the baron v c310
@FlyingwithRich Жыл бұрын
I like the Baron better, smaller cockpit but overall I’d take the Baron.

Always liked how Barons handled, but I HATED the throttle quadrant/yoke design. Not at all ergonomic.

No, you won’t get 200 knots TAS out of it....but you’ll have a smile on your face trying.

Sounds like a good video - “200KTS in a stock 55 Baron!”

No quería mucho ver éste video, los recuerdos no son buenos, mi hermano gemelo perdió la vida pilotando un avión similar , tuvo un problema con los tanques auxiliares, se agotó el combustible y por alguna razón no pudo activar los estanques principales ocasionando falla de ambos motores a 3000 ft. tuvo oportunidad de realizar un aterrizaje forzoso en la carretera pero estaba atestada de vehículos, se desvió a una plantación de uvas , entró en stoll de ala izquierda , todos los ocupantes perecieron instantáneamente, el avión se incendió de inmediato 😢

Nice video, Rich. I see a lot of cringe-worthy aviation content, yours is exactly the opposite. Nice heads-up aviating, buddy!
