THE BEECH SIERRA IS THE BEECHCRAFT VERSION OF PIPER"S ARROW.
AS A BEECHCRAFT, THE NEW PRICE WAS HIGHER THAN THE ARROWS, AS THE AIRPLANE HAD A FEW FEATURES THE ARROW NEVER OFFERED.
MOST IMPORTANT WAS THE PILOTS SIDE DOOR !!
THE EASE OF ENTRY OF THE SIERRA, WITH FULL SIZE, FULL SWING DOORS ON BOTH SIDES MAKES THE SIERRA MORE THAN TWICE AS EASY TO GET INTO THAN THE PIPER, IN BOTH THE FRONT AND BACK SEATS !!
THE SIERRA ALSO OFFERS MORE HEADROOM, MORE BAGGAGE COMPARTMENT SPACE, AND A LARGER, SPEED SLOPE WINDSHIELD, FOR A TRUE PANORAMIC VIEW OUT THE FRONT !!
THIS AIRPLANE SUFFERED DAMAGE AS A RESULT OF A GEAR UP LANDING, BUT THE DAMAGE IS SO LIGHT !!
THE SIERRA, HAVING TWO DOORS, HAS TWO STEPS !!
THE AIRPLANE RIDES ON THE STEPS WITHOUT THE GEAR DOWN, AND IN THIS CASE, ON TWO BLADES OF A 3 BLADE PROPELLOR, AND THIS REALLY SAVED THE SKINS !!
NO DAMAGE TO THE UPPER OR LOWER COWLINGS !!
NO FIREWALL DAMAGE !!
THERE IS LIGHT SCRAPING TO THE NOSE FORK, WHICH SHOULD JUST SAND SMOOTH, AND A SMALL AMOUNT OF SKIN DAMAGE AROUND THE NOSE-GEAR, PROBABLY FROM HANDLING, NOT NECESSARILY THE INCIDENT. LIGHT DAMAGE ONLY
THERE IS SOME SCRAPING ON THE BELLY, CAUSED WHEN THE STEPS FINALLY COLLAPSED FROM THE WEIGHT, BUT IT IS VERY FAR BACK ON THE BELLY, AND MUCH LIGHTER THAN YOU WOULD EXPECT !!
THERE IS SOME WRINKLING TO THE BELLY SKINS, BETWEEN THE FORMERS FROM TRANSPORTATION ON A TRAILER ON THE BELLY AFTER THE ACCIDENT, BUT THE STRINGERS APPEAR OK HERE.
THE ADF ANTENNA WAS PUSHED UP, BUT IT DID A GOOD JOB OF KEEPING THE BELLY FROM SCRAPING AS WELL.
THE ONLY OTHER DAMAGE IS TO THE LEADING EDGE OF THE WINGS, FAR OUTBOARD, AGAIN FROM HANDLING, AFTER THE INCIDENT. THERE IS A DENT/CUT ON THE LEADING EDGE SKIN OF THE WING WITHOUT THE LANDING LIGHT, AND A BROKEN PLEXIGLASS COVER ON THE OTHER. THE EASY REPAIR IS TWO INSTALL ANOTHER LANDING LIGHT, ON THE OTHER SIDE WING FROM THE STOCK ONE. THIS ELIMINATES THE DAMAGED AREA WITHOUT A PATCH OR SKIN REPLACEMENT, AND UPGRADES THE AIRPLANE AT THE SAME TIME !!
THE ENGINE SUSTAINED A SUDDEN STOPPAGE AS A RESULT OF THE PROP STRIKING THE RUNWAY, SO THE ENGINE, PROP AND ACCESSORIES WERE UNBOLTED FROM THE MOUNT, AND ARE NOT INCLUDED.
THE ENGINE MOUNT, ENGINE CONTROL CABLES, AND ELECTRICAL WIRES WERE UNBOLTED, NOT CUT, WITH PLANS TO BOLT ANOTHER ENGINE BACK ON.
THE SIERRA HAS A MODERN 6 PACK GUAGE LAYOUT WITH A CLEAN LOOK DASH AND DEEP EYEBROW
RAMS HORN CONTROL WHEELS, CIRCUIT BREAKER SWITCHES, AND VERNIER THROTTLE AND PROP CONTROLS ARE NICE TOUCHES.
THERE IS A COMPLETE DASH FULL OF FLIGHT AND ENGINE INSTRUMENTS INCLUDED, AS SHOWN
