About this aircraft

$55,000 · ACCEPTING OFFERS · For sale is a 1948 Beechcraft Bonanza N3941N. This Bonanza is being sold in annual and ready to fly for $55K. This Bonanza is a true survivor. It has always been stored in a hangar and is in rather amazing condition, especially for a 1948 model of this vintage. Paint & seats are 7 of 10. It has a single swing over yoke. The vacuum pump and vacuum operated gyros have been removed and the panel is set up for a Dynon D3 EFIS. The remainder of the panel is mostly original with obvious modifications. Interior is utilitarian.

This summary draws on signals shown in detail below — price comps, listing age, maintenance and engine status, and key specs. Read each section for full context. Not an appraisal.

Cost to own

Rule-of-thumb estimates — insurance ≈ 1% of price, hangar $7,500/yr, annual inspection $2,500/yr, fuel + oil at your selected hrs/yr. Your actual costs will vary.

As a sole owner

$1,879/mo$22,550/yr

≈ $226 per flight hour at 100 hrs/yr — flying fewer hours raises this (fixed costs spread over fewer hours)

$55,000 to buy (the asking price)

At 100 hrs/yr, renting at $150/hr would be $7,550 cheaper annually — fly more to see ownership savings.

Ownership	Buy-in	Monthly	Annual
Full ownership (sole)	$55,000	$1,879/mo	$22,550/yr
1/2 share	$27,500	$1,440/mo	$17,275/yr
1/3 share	$18,333	$1,293/mo	$15,517/yr
1/4 share	$13,750	$1,220/mo	$14,638/yr

Buy-in is the asking price split evenly across partners — what you'd each pay to acquire the aircraft (the real figure is negotiated). Fixed costs (insurance, hangar, inspection) split equally by number of partners; fuel/oil is per-pilot since each partner flies their own hours.
