... as I am a member for 3 years now!
I started flying 26 years ago with c152 and 172. My Father was a privat pilot too and of cause I could fly from right seat without being tall enough to see trough the windshield
. Did my aerobatic license on a cap 10b but never flew serious aerobatics. Then a friend gave me the chance to fly is Bonanza B36 ... and I fell in love with bonanzas. As opportunity came I purchased my 1995 A36 in 2006. Since then I took every chance to make this bird lighter and easier to use. Installed glass, BEW dropped by 30kg to 1130kg over the years and same drag reductions made this airplane fast, a few weeks ago I saw 179kt TAS at 4500 feet LOP. Thank you beechtalk!
I live in Germany, near EDFM. I use my bird for business and private flights. In real live I am an Production Engineer for light metal automotive parts.
Right now I am in a pre buy with a Malibu 310p and hope you still like me if I should by a Piper
Best regards to all of you ... happy to be a member.
