Taxiing by at EAA AirVenture Oshkosh 2024 in the evening. Built in 1952, the Model 170B was an improvement over the Model 170A. It featured high-lift flaps that extended back and down to 40 degrees, permitting slower landing speeds than the earlier models. Cessna marketed these four-place monoplanes with single struts as the "Businessliner" to appeal to businessmen. This beautiful aircraft is powered by a 145 hp Continental C145-2 engine and is fitted with the optional landing light and wheel fairings.

This Twin Bonanza rolled of the production line in 1962.

This 1963 Bonanza returns to Oshkosh with a new paint scheme.

The aircraft was destroyed on September 17, 1983, in a Pylon Air Race during the Reno National Air Races at Stead Airport, Nevada. In an attempt to avoid a collision at about 200 mph, the aircraft stalled and with only 35 feet of altitude it crashed hard. The engine and wings were violently ripped off, fortunately the cockpit portion remained intact, and the pilot escaped injuries. The aircraft went to the National Air Race Museum and was restored for static display, later it hung above a bar in the Grand Sierra Resort and Casino in Reno, Nevada for several years. Eventually it was transferred to the EAA museum.
