The Tradewind Turbines Corporation of Amarillo, Texas
provided turboprop conversions on post 1979 model Beech A36 and A36TC
Bonanzas. The original 300hp (223kW) Continetal IO-550-B piston engine
is replaced with an Allison turboprop. Apart from economies in
maintenance and operating costs the installation of the turboprop
confers major performance improvements to the Bonanza.
