Textron Aviation, which owns Beechcraft, is killing off the Bonanza and the Baron.
The Bonanza's been around since the end of WW2. My late uncle once owned a Debonair, which was sort of a baby Bonanza, back in the sixties, when he had a consulting business that spanned much of the Eastern Seaboard. It was a neat airplane. The Air Force flew them as nighttime low-altitude surveillane drone.
I expect that, with eighty years of production, Bonanzas will be a common sight on airport ramps for decades to come.

If you're one of the Covidiots who believe that COVID-19 is "just the flu",
that the 2020 election was stolen, or
especially if you supported the 1/6/21 insurrection,
leave now.
Slava Ukraini!

COMMENT MODERATION IS IN EFFECT UFN. This means that if you are an insulting dick, nobody will ever see it.
It will be interesting to see who they sell the production jigs, gear and licenses to. It’s not a huge moneymaker, so they will sell it, the question will be if a group of Bonanza owners can swing getting a holding company up and running.
