About Beech/Beechcraft - Beech 18 Tradewind

Bring offers!!! Will deliver with a fresh 2025 annual. I’ve enjoyed flying this airplane but need it gone. Show stopping 1963 Beech 18 Tradewind is now ready for a new owner. This is a “2XL Baron”, with a 3,284 LB useful load, 202 gallons of fuel and club seating for 5 passengers. The Tradewind conversion allowed for higher maximum takeoff weight, greater range, and increased speed. This made the Beech 18 more competitive for cargo operations, passenger transport. This conversion breathed new life into a legendary airframe, allowing it to stay relevant long after its original production. Expect someone to come ask about the airplane at every stop.
