Afternoon All,
I am 27 living in Minnesota (KFCM.) I haven't been flying a Bonanza for very long, 3 years to be exact, and even so I wish I could say I fly it every week. I do not own the plane, just fly it for the owner who has started his PPL a while ago but, hasn't finished due to other priorities. I have absolutely fallen in love with their 1978 V35B and her Continental IO520BA and take care of it as if it was my own. This year I have sort of taken over the "Managing" side of it for them, and am currently in the process of creating an A/C Status Book for it to make keeping due dates easier to keep track of. Currently, I fly a PC12 full time and fly the Bonanza in my spare time on the requested trips when/if my schedule flying the 12 is free. Every now and then they mention of maybe getting ride of it for something bigger like a twin at which I always tell them "I'll take a loan out and sell my other kidney, I want it." I've heard quite a bit about BeechTalk and how friendly and informational it is and, I'll be honest I have been looking in through the windows for quite some time and figured joining up now was better then later. Look forward to meeting new people ( maybe some local) and learning more about the great Bonanza. Blue Skies & Tailwinds!

Username Protected wrote: Welcome to BT it is a great resource. If you search around there are a few maintenance tracker sheets for download. Mr. Singles, Thank you for the warm welcome! Really look forward to diving deeper into BT. I'll have to go scouting for the MX sheets, probably would be easier to do then what I was thinking of doing myself.

I think active BT member and all around great guy Lance Fisher (and his Baron) are at FCM. Worth seeking out if you have not met. Mr. Hausch, Life sure is good, and I'm so very grateful. The 12 and the Bo are fabulous aircraft and I am so very grateful I get to experience them both. Mr. Lance Fisher, hmm doesn't ring a bell. I USE to work full time down at Premier Jet Center as a line tech when I first moved back, then got hired on full time on the PC12 and only work at Premier Jet Center now once in a blue moon, which is where I keep the V35 when I'm between trips or she's just down here to be flown. Wonder if we fuel him, gonna assume he has his own T-hanger?

Username Protected wrote: Welcome aboard! PC AND a Bo , at your age, you’re doing it right Bro! Look out for our Red Bo, regularly on the ramp at FCM when we go visiting our sons, shopping, lunching etc. Lance Fisher, fellow BT’er based there. His knowledge encyclopedic. Mr. Herle, I have in fact seen you're Red Bo before. In fact it was you I landed behind about a week on 28R, believe you taxied off and back tracked down Alpha to Thunderbird or Elliott (Think maybe TB) and I gave you a thumbs up when we passed each other. Sure a slick plane you have! Now the second time Mr. Fischer has been brought up, guess I'll just have to meet up with him!
