Really? What is its fuel consumption per hour? What is your crew complement? What airports are you able to fly out of?

just me to fly it. If in a hurry, 36/gal per hour (200 kts). Slow 190 @30 gal per hour. I fly out of CA35. Can go into just about every airport but avoid major ones, too much traffic.

... so not the supersonic B58 Hustler bomber from back about 1960? I wondered how one of those got into private hands.

No, B58 means Beech Baron, Model 58.

When I was a career Air Force doctor, some of my buds who were pilots of fixed wing and choppers used to let me fly with them and give me stick time. I got lots in choppers at SAC bases. It was OK. Looks like fun, but I’d never fly General Aviation. My dad used to do outreach clinics with another doctor in Montana in a Bonanza. Unfortunately, they were 2 that helped it earn its other name.
