I've been homing on your range, and apparently my automatic direction finder isn't working right.

Now, if I bought the airplane, with one thing in mind is to keep from driving to Dallas, then there's no use in the ministry paying for it, I'll buy it myself.
Kenneth CopelandSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
75:29
And I would buy the most wonderful single engine airplane that has ever been built, the Beechcraft Bonanza.
Kenneth CopelandSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
75:41
and I'd fly to Dallas in it whenever I want to fly to Dallas in it.

Both of those are transport aircraft, pressurized jets.
TowerHOST
5:38
What does any of this mean for the pilot flying a Cessna 210 or a Mooney M20 or a Beechcraft Bonanza across the Colorado high country? It means the physiology is identical.
TowerHOST
5:48
The physics of oxygen at altitude do not distinguish between a Boeing and a Bonanza.
TowerHOST
5:53
What changes is the regulatory framework.

But 94 octane is not enough for the high performance side of the fleet.
TowerHOST
3:10
A turbocharged Cirrus SR22, a Beechcraft Bonanza, a Piper Malibu, any aircraft running a high compression engine needs 100 octane.
TowerHOST
3:20
And getting to 100 octane without lead has been the hard part.

Because unpacking one specific airplane tells you something genuinely useful about where the used market sits right now and what it means when a seller says, modernized.
TowerHOST
0:31
The aircraft is a 1987 Beechcraft Bonanza, a 36 upgraded interior, paint, and panel.
TowerHOST
0:38
six-place family hauler, and if you've spent any time in general aviation, you already know the name.
TowerHOST
0:44
The Bonanza may be the most iconic single-engine aircraft ever built.
TowerHOST
0:51
Iconic in the specific sense that it represents a standard, a benchmark, the thing against which other things are measured.
TowerHOST
0:58
Let's start at the beginning and build up.
TowerHOST
1:00
The Beechcraft Bonanza entered production in 1947, 78 years of continuous production for essentially the same airframe.
TowerHOST
1:07
The current model, the G36, is still being built in Wichita.

Picture this.
TonyHOST

It's June twenty-four, nineteen forty-seven, and Kenneth Albert Arnold is flying a single engine Beechcraft Bonanza from Spokane to Seattle when the horizon suddenly lights up with nine gleaming objects gliding past his aircraft at an impossible pace.
TonyHOST
0:48
Arnold sketched what he saw, long, slender shapes that looked like crescents or folded wings rather than the round discs we imagine today.
TonyHOST

But journalists were already dubbing them flying saucers as they ran out of a more descriptive adjective.
Burke DavisHOST

How does that sound?
Scott DavisHOST
62:57
It's a Beechcraft Bonanza, but while you're banging her, her feet's hitting me in the back of the head.

Burke DavisHOST

Moving on.

The FAA published an airworthiness directive this week affecting certain Beechcraft Bonanza and Baron models equipped with Continental five twenty and five fifty series engines.
TowerHOST
5:24
The directive addresses potential fatigue cracking in the engine mount.
TowerHOST
5:28
Through bolts, the hardware that secures the engine case to the airframe mount structure on aircraft manufactured in the nineteen seventies and eighties.
TowerHOST
5:36
If you fly a Bonanza or Baron in that era, cross-reference your serial number against the compliance list in the directive.
TowerHOST
5:43
The required action is a one-time visual and dimensional inspection of the through bolts.
TowerHOST
5:48
If the inspection reveals wear or cracking outside the serviceability limits, replacement is required before further flight.
