This 1975 Beechcraft A24R Sierra’s Comfort and Economy Make It an ‘AircraftForSale’ Top Pick

Today’s Top Pick is a 1975 Beechcraft A24R Super​/​Sierra

The first time I glanced at a Beechcraft Musketeer from my local airport’s flight school taxiing to the runway, I thought it was Piper PA-28. Then I began to notice differences such as taller landing gear, a lot of windows, and the distinct curvature of the cabin roof. Later, when the Beechcraft parked next to a PA-28 it was clear that the Beech is larger and looks like “more airplane” on the ramp.

Higher-performance models evolved from the Musketeer including the 200 hp retractable Sierra, which competed with the Piper Arrow and Cessna 172 RG Cutlass. It is faster than its fixed-gear siblings and later models gained a second cabin door that pilots and passengers appreciate.To further set the aircraft apart from its rivals, Beechcraft offered an optional six-seat layout, making the most of the aircraft’s large cabin. Owners who care a lot about comfort in a small airplane tend to seek out the Sierra. The Beech Aero Club supports owners of the whole  Sierra/Musketeer family.

This 1975 Sierra has 3,150 hours on the airframe, 1,700 hours since overhaul on its 200 hp Lycoming IO-360-A1B engine and 656 hours since overhaul on its propeller. The panel includes TKM MX170B and King KX170 nav/coms, a King KMA20 audio panel, KT76C transponder, and King ADF.

Pilots interested in training and traveling in the same roomy, economical aircraft should consider this 1975 Beechcraft A24R Sierra, which is available for $79,900 on AircraftForSale,
