    Description

    A one-time cover model for Twin and Turbine Magazine, N37RZ combines a modern Garmin cockpit with RAM engines, MT four-blade propellers and a custom cabin. An exterior designed by Elliott Aviation's Moline completion center features a flowing scheme accented by a distinctive, hot-rod-inspired chrome-illusion stripe that changes color with the viewing angle. Chrome-look Kevlar propeller spinners complete the presentation. The tight pressurized cabin is the centerpiece: supple nubuck leather seating, sound-deadening cork sidewalls and wood trim create an inviting, richly textured executive interior. Custom cabinetry integrates a foldout worktable with dedicated refreshment and storage units. A left-side, two-seat Conquest-style couch brings a lounge-like character to the space (currently off-aircraft for reduced 6 seat configuration, easy reinstall), complemented by indirect LED lighting and an aft belted lav. Electric Keith air conditioning allows the cabin to be precooled from ground power before boarding. Up front, a Garmin G600 TXi, dual GTN 750Xi navigators, GFC 600 autopilot and dedicated Garmin engine instrumentation define a sophisticated flight deck. Secondary/backup JPI Engine gauges provide extra support. RAM engines and MT four-blade propellers complement this modern cockpit, while hydraulic spoilers, vortex generators and auxiliary tanks bringing total fuel capacity to 271 gallons add to the aircraft's extensive equipment. N37RZ is certified for flight into known icing (FIKI), with dual heated pitot tubes, de-ice boots and heated propellers. With on-board Garmin integrated Bendix digital weather radar, ADSB and XM weather, and StormScope, you have maximum situational awareness. The appeal extends beyond the presentation. A long-standing history of care by premier Twin Cessna specialist Air Impressions, lending substance to an exceptional maintenance pedigree. For the buyer drawn to the Golden Eagle's executive character, N37RZ offers a compelling combination of distinctive materials, modern avionics and established specialist care. No known accident history. Specifications and times subject to buyer verification. Complete log records present. In annual @ Air Impressions Nov 2026 --perfect time for pre-buy!
