Textron lists a new G58 Baron at $2,155,000. The median G58 in our sample asks $1,295,000, about 60% of that, and a used 58 asks $464,500. The oldest Barons, the 55 series, ask a median of $184,500.
The Baron is Beechcraft's long-running piston twin, and the family is big and old: 3,065 aircraft on the FAA register, with 41.4% of those with a usable build year dating from the 1970s. Two engines mean two of everything that wears, and the figures below are for the airplane, not for what keeps it flying.
What follows walks down the price curve, then looks at the family, who owns the fleet, what the airplane costs to run and what the NTSB accident files record. Every figure comes from a named public source or a dated sample, and the sources are listed at the end.
Data used: FAA fleet through 2026-10-12; NTSB file through 2026-09-30; asking-price sample 2026-10-14.
What a new Baron costs, and what that number means
Textron's Fact Book lists the G58 Baron at $2,155,000. That is a manufacturer's suggested retail price: the standard configuration, before the options, avionics choices and dealer terms that move a real quote. It is the only maker price we found, and it covers only the current airplane.
The G58 has 6 seats and two Continental IO-550-C engines, 300 hp per engine, with a maximum takeoff weight of 5,500 lb and 172 US gal of fuel in total, according to the FAA type certificate data sheet. The earliest Baron on the sheet, the 95-55 approved in 1960, had 260 hp per engine and 4,880 lb. The G58 adds 40 hp per engine and 620 lb.
A cliff between the G58 and every other Baron
We gathered 73 Baron listings from one marketplace on 14 October 2026, and 58 of them carried a usable asking price. Their medians sort the family into price tiers, with the new list price as the benchmark.
The gold bar is Textron's list price for a new G58. Teal bars are medians of asking prices. Models with fewer than 5 priced listings are left out.
There is a cliff between the G58 and everything else. The G58's median ask is $1,295,000 on 7 listings, from $1,099,000 to $1,400,000, and its median airframe has flown 686 hours. The next tier down is the 58, at $464,500, then the pressurised 58P at $394,000 and the 55 series at $184,500.
Inside the 58 the age effect is clear. Built up to 1979, the median ask is $287,000 on 10 listings. Built from 1990 on, it is $574,500, 2.0 times as much. The middle group, built 1980 to 1989, has only 4 priced listings and asks $349,000 to $499,000.
The median 58 built up to 1979 has flown 4,562.5 airframe hours. Built from 1990 on, it has flown 3,260.5.
Airframe hours are not engine hours, and an older twin has two engines with their own histories. The listings do not say how either has fared.
The turbocharged 58TC has only 3 priced listings, asking $195,000 to $270,000, too few for a median. One caution covers this whole section. It is one marketplace on one day, with 58 priced listings after we set aside 15 with no price. These are asking prices, not sales, and no individual listing is published. Prices were recorded to the nearest 1,000 dollars.
For the wider market, our guide to what a small plane costs puts the Baron in context, and what a Beechcraft costs covers the maker. The other classic piston twin is covered in what a Cessna 310 costs, and the big single from the same factory in what a Bonanza costs.

The Baron is a family of twins
The FAA's type certificate data sheets cover the Baron from the 95-55 of 1960 to the G58 of 2005, with the pressurised 58P on a sheet of its own. Six rows tell most of the story. For where the Baron sits among the rest, the guide to the main types of planes helps.

The oddity is the 56TC: it is the only Baron with Lycoming engines, two turbocharged TIO-541-E1B4 engines at 380 hp per engine, more power per engine than any other Baron on the sheets. The register counts the 58 series at 1,100 (35.9%), the 55 series at 764 (24.9%) and the pressurised 58P at 301.
A quarter of the register, 780 aircraft (25.4%), carries a military-derived label such as the Army's T-42 trainer, which was built on the earlier Baron. If you are thinking about a different kind of twin, the guide to what Piper aircraft cost covers Piper's range, and the maker comparison what Cirrus aircraft cost covers the single-engine alternative.

An old fleet, owned by LLCs
The FAA register lists 3,065 aircraft in the Baron family, and 3,032 of them (98.9%) hold a valid registration, while 33 carry another status. Of the whole family, 2,668 records have a usable build year, and 2,647 of those are valid. That counts paperwork, not airplanes in the air: a valid registration says nothing about whether the aircraft is airworthy or flying.
- 7171960s
- 1,1041970s
- 4421980s
- 1861990s
- 1062000s
- 1002010s
- 132020s
397 records have a blank or invalid build year and are left out of the chart.
41.4% of the registered Barons with a usable build year were built in the 1970s.
The 1970s account for 1,104 aircraft and the 1960s for 717. The register thins to 442 from the 1980s and 186 from the 1990s, and the newest decades add few: 106 from the 2000s, 100 from the 2010s and 13 so far in the 2020s.
LLCs hold the most registrations, at 44.2%, ahead of individuals at 29.3% and corporations at 17.8%, with co-owned aircraft at 6.7%. At this price, aircraft are often held through a company. The registry records the owner category, not how the airplane is used.
Texas (11.5%) leads the state table, 71 aircraft ahead of Florida (9.1%), with California third. Fourth place is Delaware, with 161 registrations, which is a registration-address effect, because LLC and trust registrations can carry a Delaware address. The state field says nothing about where the aircraft fly.

Two engines, two of everything
After the purchase the airplane wants fuel, engine funds for two engines, an annual inspection, insurance and somewhere to sleep. Only some of those have a published number worth printing, and for the Baron few do.
Fuel
Plane and Pilot's specification table for the 2008 G58 lists 32 US gal/hour at 75 percent power, 30 US gal/hour at 65 percent and 26 US gal/hour at 55 percent. The publisher marks those figures as estimates, and the table does not say whether they are per engine or for the airplane, so the calculator leaves fuel burn for you to fill in. It is one G58 from one model year, not the family.
The engines
Every Baron on the data sheets has two engines: Continental IO-470, IO-520, IO-550 and TSIO-520 units on most, and Lycoming turbocharged TIO-541 units on the 56TC. Continental's current overhaul schedule sits behind an account login we could not use, so we publish no interval for most of them. For the 56TC, Lycoming's service instruction lists the TIO-541-E1B4 at 1,600 hours per engine and 1,200 hours per engine where its eligibility note is not met, with a limit of 12 calendar years. It comes with conditions, so read it before relying on it. The engine fund is the line item that arrives all at once, and a twin has two.
The rest
The FAA describes an annual inspection interval of 12 calendar months for ordinary US personal aircraft ownership. Insurance, hangar or tie-down fees, labour rates and loan terms depend too much on the owner, the airfield and the airplane for one published number to mean anything, so this page prints none. Add your own quotes and you have a budget that belongs to you. More on the wider costs of owning an aircraft sits in our ownership section.
Renting is the benchmark your own figure has to justify. Our guide to how much it costs to rent a Cessna 172 shows the other side of the ledger for a much smaller airplane. And for a different kind of ownership cost story, what it costs to own an L-39 Albatross shows what a jet trainer adds.
What the accident files record
Every entry in the NTSB files is a real event, and the counts are all this page claims to know about them. The NTSB lists 415 accidents involving Baron-family aircraft from 2000 through 2025. Of those, 166, or 40.0%, were fatal, and 378 people died in them.
- 2000
- 31
- 2005
- 2010
- 2015
- 2020
- 172025
Counts only. The NTSB does not record how many hours the family flew, so these bars are not rates.
The count peaked at 31 in 2001 and stood at 17 in 2025. That is a drop in the number of accidents. It should not be read as a change in risk, because the data holds no flying hours to divide by, and the fleet itself has aged.
The first coded phase is the one attached to the first event in the NTSB's sequence for each accident. Accidents without a coded sequence, or with unmapped codes, sit in separate rows of the full table.
Landing leads by a distance. 29.9% of accidents begin there, with approach at 16.4%, enroute at 13.5% and takeoff at 11.6%. Landing and takeoff together are 41.4% of the record.
The NTSB's own findings point at people and machines together. Of the 202 accidents with causal findings in its current coding, 81.7% involve personnel issues and 80.7% involve aircraft issues. An accident can carry several findings, so the shares overlap and do not add up to the whole.

- Pick a model before you pick a price. In our sample the median ask runs from $184,500 for the 55 series to $1,295,000 for the G58, with the 58 at $464,500.
- Age matters inside the 58. The median ask is $287,000 for aircraft built up to 1979 and $574,500 from 1990 on.
- Treat an asking price as an opening line. These are what sellers want. The sample cannot see what buyers pay.
- Ask about both engines. Time since overhaul, not airframe hours, is what matters, and each engine has its own history.
- Do not read a valid registration as a clean bill of health. Status V is paperwork, not an inspection.
- Budget with your own quotes. Fuel, two engine funds, the annual inspection, insurance and storage all depend on you and your airfield. The calculator above does the arithmetic once you fill them in.

Sources and how the numbers were made
Data through: FAA 2026-10-12; NTSB 2026-09-30; asking sample 2026-10-14.
How the numbers were made: We counted matching FAA registrations and showed valid registrations (status V) separately. We combined the NTSB files, counted each accident once and excluded incidents. Used prices are summaries of advertised prices. Fuel cost examples multiply published fuel burn by example fuel prices.
Privacy: No personal data is used in the published results. No owner, seller, crew, operator, narrative or individual accident record is published.
