Just finished during a customers recurrent training in this BE58 with the Colemill Conversion. It has some pretty amazing performance. The single engine climb rate is almost doubled. The book said we would get 436 ft/min on one engine on our day of training, we got somewhere between 700 to 800 ft/min. It also had the Garmin autopilot and adds rudder for you. When we did the initial training a few years ago, we took it to the mountains of Colorado and kept stepping up in the density altitude until we finally got to Leadville on our day at Leadville We had a density of the altitude of 11,500 feet and we climbed at 200 ft./min. on one engine. Pretty amazing performance for normally aspirated Baron.
