Meet Beechcraft Baron 58 / G58

The Baron entered the Beechcraft range in 1961, developing from the earlier Travel Air. Its retractable landing gear and two wing-mounted piston engines provide the familiar outline of a light touring twin. Several fuselage and engine combinations appeared over the family's long history.

The Model 58 and glass-cockpit G58 share a recognisable shape while representing different equipment generations. A conventional-instrument X-Plane aircraft and a modern MSFS G58 consequently deserve separate avionics and systems descriptions, even when they share this family page.
