Performance That Matters
176 ktas at cruise. 1,060 nm on one tank with 45-minute reserve. Nonstop Lexington to Miami, Dallas, or Boston — without dumping useful load. Near-twin performance at single-engine operating costs.
Six-seat, single-engine performance with a 176-knot cruise, 42-inch cabin, and Garmin G1000 avionics. Every G36 in our inventory is logbook-verified, condition-assessed, and backed by transparent ownership guidance.
The G36 has been in production since 2006. Straight-tail design, no known structural ADs, 176-knot cruise, six seats. We've sold G36s to families moving up from Cessna 182s and business owners done with Baron maintenance. Here's what makes it work.
176 ktas at cruise. 1,060 nm on one tank with 45-minute reserve. Nonstop Lexington to Miami, Dallas, or Boston — without dumping useful load. Near-twin performance at single-engine operating costs.
42 inches wide — widest in the single-engine piston class. Six adults in club seating with individual air vents. 400-pound baggage capacity handles ski equipment, golf clubs, and car seats without compromise.
Dual 10" and 12" Garmin G1000 displays. Synthetic vision, terrain awareness, traffic alerting. GFC 700 autopilot flies coupled LPV approaches to 200-foot minimums. A legitimate hard-IFR single.
When comparing G36 listings, focus on total airframe time, engine hours since major overhaul (TBO is 2,000 hours), avionics generation, and damage history. We verify all of it — every G36 includes digitized logbooks, engine trend monitoring, and coordination with your A&P for pre-buy inspection.
All G36s available for in-person inspection at our Lexington facility. New inventory acquired monthly.

The cabin is 42 inches wide and 49 inches tall at the door. Six adults in club seating with individual air vents and optional air conditioning.

Dual 10-inch PFD and 12-inch MFD with synthetic vision, terrain awareness, traffic (ADS-B In), and weather (XM or FIS-B). The NXi upgrade (2017+) adds Bluetooth for ForeFlight, faster processing, and visual approach guidance. Same platform used in Cessna Citation Mustang jets.
Three-axis digital autopilot with electronic stability protection (ESP), level button, and VNAV capability. Coupled LPV approaches to 200-foot minimums. The level button has prevented accidents in IMC by recovering from unusual attitudes automatically.

No AD history on the wing spar, unlike older V-tail Bonanzas. Straight-tail, bonded fuselage with 50+ years of field data. Well-maintained G36s achieve 95%+ dispatch reliability — matching turboprops.
