History
The prototype Model 65 Queen Air made its first flight on August 28 1958, with deliveries of production aircraft in late 1960 marking the beginning of a production run that would last almost two decades.
This first model combined the wings, undercarriage, Lycoming engines and tail surfaces of the Model E50 Twin Bonanza with a new and substantially larger fuselage. A Queen Air 65 established a new class altitude record of 34,882ft in 1960.
