The Beechcraft Bonanza A36 is the stretched-fuselage version of the Bonanza family, a low-wing single-engine piston aircraft produced between 1968 and 2005. It seats up to 6 occupants, cruises at 176 kt, has a range of 748 nm, a service ceiling of 18,500 ft and a maximum takeoff weight of 1,656 kg. In Brazil, it is one of the largest single-engine aircraft in private and business operation, sought by those who need six seats without taking on the cost of a twin. Since production has ended, the market is for used aircraft: airframe age, engine hours and maintenance history weigh more in the appraisal than the original factory configuration.

Verdict per regime (private, charter dry and wet) across 465 Brazilian public runways, with the margin in meters.

Starter feature. Available on your Jet Tracker account.

Manufacturer-published distances at sea level, ISA and reference weight. Not corrected for altitude, temperature, wind or runway condition, takeoff included. Uses the declared LDA as a proxy for effective runway length (RBAC 135.361) and the most favourable threshold in calm air (135.385(b)(1)): on the day, wind may force the shorter threshold. Destination only: does not assess the alternate aerodrome (135.387). Not a substitute for the AFM or the operator's performance analysis. Rule: RBAC 135.385 and 135.398; private flying (RBAC 91) is not factored. Runways: declared distance (LDA) from AISWEB/DECEA (2026-09-05), checkable on each aerodrome chart; where DECEA publishes no declared distance, physical length from OurAirports is used.
