Up until a few years ago, Raytheon made available large-scale engineering drawings of Beechcraft aircraft for model builders. Current management of the company claims no knowledge of them. Here is a list of those available as of August 1996. I have the drawing for the Model 35 Bonanza, but if you have any of the others, I'd very much like to obtain a copy.

Aircraft / Model Drawing Number
Travel Air 2000 / 441211
Travel Air 6000 / 340928
Model 17 Staggerwing / 340744
Model T-34A Mentor / 113603
Model T-34B / 540834
Model T-34C / 541005
Musketeer Series:
Sierra / 540079
Sundowner / 540673
Sport / 540672
Model 33 Bonanza / 33-001014
Model 35 Bonanza / 35-001014
Model V35A Bonanza / 35-001124
Model A36 Bonanza / 541028
Model 76 Duchess / 541019
Model Travel Air (short rear window) / 95-001012
Model D95A Travel Air / 540080
Model A55 Baron / 540076
Model B55 Baron / 540140
Model D55 Baron / 540389
Model 58 Baron / 540865
Model 58P Baron / 540908
Model 58TC Baron / 541022
Model 60 Duke / 540500
Model 65-80 Queen Air / 540078
Model Super 18 (conventional gear) / 540085
Model Super H18 (tricycle gear) / 540110
Model A90 King Air / 540336
Model B90 King Air / 540357
Model F90 King Air / 541121
Model 99 Airliner / 540594
Model A100 King Air / 540833
Model B100 King Air/ 540123
Model 200 King Air:
1/20 scale / 540770
1/30 scale / 540794
1/40 scale / 540850
Model 77 Skipper / 541115
Model 300 King Air / 541274
Model 1900 Airliner / 541219
Model 200 Starship:
1/32 scale / 122-000010
1/64 scale / 122-000011

Note the absence of the Twin Bonanza. I'm looking for the Beech model drawing of that aircraft as well, and I believe there was at least one. Thanks in advance.

I believe a few are reproduced...in very small scale...in Ed Phillips' Beechcraft, Pursuit or Perfection and the earlier Staggerwing to Starship.

The company is probably discouraging models of its aircraft...in case someone puts a Ken or Barbie doll in them...they don't want to be used Barbie in case of a crash. :) :)
