I am a student pilot half way through my PPL training getting ready to solo soon hopefully with 35 hours of flight time. Like the performance and style of Beechcraft Bonanzas whether it be V-tail or newer G36 models. Looking forward to getting my PPL, instrument, commercial and complex/high performance ratings so that I can fly these lovely birds.

Welcome Ben! This forum is full of folks with aviation wisdom, Beech passion, and a definite love of helping you spend your money !

Good luck with your PPL, safe flying, ask questions, and let us know when you are ready to make that Beech purchase!

Hi Chris,

Thank you for the warm welcome. I've been fortunate to fly in my first Beech a Debonair recently with a nice guy from the forum. Definitely like them better than the Cessna 172 I am training on but before one can do advanced physics, one has to learn algebra. Flying in northern California is great place to train and I had my first supervised bay area tour yesterday with my instructor and flying over the San Francisco GoldenGate Bridge was amazing!

welcome love to see new people having fun training. a word on beechcraft,,like aford comercial built tough.. but maitanance on a deb or bo can be spendy so if you want one and have deep pockets get one. another alternative is the sundowners or sieras with retracts if you so choose. i work on these alot and know the cost i also own a sundowner and love it. the guys on this site can tell you alot about the bonanzas myself i see them all and wish i could afford the bo,,mabe someday..given a choice i would still fly a beach over a cessna or a paper piper any day,,al the best

Hi Ben!
Welcome to this board.
Good luck with your training. I can imagine flying near the bridge should be spectacular.
If you ever come to the heartland, let me know. We'll take the Red Bo for a spin.

Thanks guys for the warm welcome. Well right now I am focused on passing my checkride for my private and then do complex/high performance endorsements before learning to fly a Beechcraft. Its nice flying over the bay area quite amazing views.
