The Beechcraft Bonanza is an American general aviation aircraft introduced in 1947 by Beech Aircraft Corporation of Wichita, Kansas. The six-seater, single-engined aircraft is still produced by Beechcraft and has been in continuous production longer than any other aircraft in history.[5][6] More than 17,000 Bonanzas of all variants have been built,[7][8] produced in both distinctive V-tail and conventional tail configurations; early conventional-tail versions were marketed as the Debonair.[8][9]
