It has the 6200 pound gross weight and weights 400 pounds less than the 58P. So it carries 400 pounds more payload and performs very well in the 10-12,000 foot range without demanding the pilot be on oxygen. But I'd really like a Duchess on floats with 200-220 hp engines. Duchess? Floats? cocks head Uuuhhhhh??? IIRC the real speedster of the Baron family was the BE56TC with the 380hp Lycs... although I'm not sure if the 58P might have been a few ka-nots faster at altitude though.
