So now that I've owned N7046N for a few months I feel like it's finally time to post. I received my PPL a little over a year ago in a Citabria 7KCAB and promptly (I think i made it a month) "I must have bigger plane" set in and I purchased a Texas Skyways modded 182. 8 months later I started plane shopping again and once I got some time in a S35 I knew that a Bonanza was the direction to go. The 182 went and I found N7046N on controller. Kent Felkins did a thorough pre buy for me and flew her to SHD. After taking care of a few items on the pre buy I am really enjoying flying a Bonanza, great airplane. I look forward to meeting some of you in the future, this forum is a great resource. The amount of information is amazing! -Kyle London (This is my first attempt at uploading a picture, sorry if it doesn't work, I'll figure it out eventually)

Username Protected wrote: Welcome. Congrats on a nice Bonanza and more congratulations on getting your license in a Citabria. A great way to get your private pilot. I'm sure you must be amazed at how easy the Bo handles, especially on the ground.  Thanks Steven, I agree, a tailwheel is an excellent way to get a private ticket. I started my training in a DA40 with a G1000 and finished my PPL in the Citabria, it was a fun transition. My girlfriend started her training in it but recently got to a point with her job/school that she never had the time to fly so we sold it a couple months ago. She is determined to get her PPL in a tailwheel so I have a feeling once things settle down we'll put another tailwheel of some sort in the hanger. Thank you all for the warm welcome! If any of you are ever around SHD feel free to swing by and say hello.
