Beechcraft Baron 58 financing FAQs
How much does a Beechcraft Baron 58 cost?
Typical asking prices for a Beechcraft Baron 58 run from about $140,000 for older or higher-time examples to $600,000 for late, low-time ones, with most trading near $280,000. Engine time, avionics, damage history and paint/interior drive the spread — confirm with a Vref or Aircraft Bluebook valuation and a pre-buy inspection.
What is the monthly payment on a Beechcraft Baron 58?
At a $280,000 purchase price with 20% down ($56,000), a $224,000 loan over 15 years is about $2,108 per month at 7.75% APR, or roughly $2,012–$2,406 across the 6.99%–9.99% range lenders published as of September 2026. Principal and interest only.
How much down payment do I need for a Beechcraft Baron 58?
Twin-engine aircraft typically need 15–30% down, with maximum terms of about 10–15 years, and many lenders prefer twins built in 1970 or later. Examples here use 20% down.
What does a Beechcraft Baron 58 cost to fly per hour in fuel?
At about 32 gallons per hour and the September 2026 national average of $7.24 per gallon for 100LL, fuel alone is roughly $232 per hour, or about $1.16 per nautical mile at a 200-knot cruise. Add reserves, insurance, storage and the annual for the full picture.
Can I finance an older Beechcraft Baron 58?
Usually, yes. Lenders finance piston singles without a fixed age limit, though pre-1960 aircraft may need a larger down payment and shorter term, and airframes over 10,000 hours are often excluded. Complete logbooks, AD compliance and a clean pre-buy matter more than the year on an older Baron 58.
