Beechcraft Lightning !

Auto Credit Based on QuiteInactiveWhiteBread's Beechcraft Baron 58

So i basically took a beech baron and turned it into the rare Beechcraft Lightening . This is an aircraft that was made by at the time Raytheon Beechcraft . This plane got phased out as modifications for the Beech bonanza included a turboprop swap for its lycoming TIO-540 engine also made by the Textron group . This aircraft has been modified from the firewall up with a new cowling and improved performance . Now equiped with the Pratt and Whitney canada PT6A-41 it gets a high cruise speed , less moveing parts . And better hot and high performance . This airplane comes standard with a partial glass cockpit and a pressurized cabin all the way to 25 and some change thousand feet . I hope ya enjoy . This aircraft besides the powerplant and firewall is not mine at all so please go to the original poster give a thanks and download the original beech baron . its a fantastic little airplane . Might i add that this airplane now rotates at 90 MPH IAS . and lands close to 110 MPH IAS . I also changed the paint and added a famous tailnumber if you know whos it is your a brain.
