Long time friend and customer of Maxcraft, Dr. Milton Reskovich, recently upgraded his panel in his 1981 Beechcraft Baron. Milton had invested in a modern avionics suite years back in his Bonanza and was used to the IFR capabilities it provided. He went looking for something that had de-ice capabilities and found a cream puff Baron with low hours and beautiful “Air Mod” leather interior. Although a legal IFR machine it had less technology than his old airplane. In Dec. he decided to take advantage of some year-end promotions to upgrade his avionics and get rid of his less desirable wood grain panel. He now has very capable single pilot IFR machine with enhanced situational awareness and a superb looking panel to boot!
