Hello BT,

I'm a new Bonanza owner as of 1 month ago, when my fiancé and I bought N369P, a turbonormalized 1996 A36 (good experience working with Neal Schwartz of Lattitude Aviation, BTW). N369P is quite an upgrade from the 1980 Piper Turbo Arrow IV I previously owned. I have been flying for 20+ years, mostly a Cherokee 180, followed by a Turbo Arrow for the past 9 years. For a long time I was thinking I wanted a Cirrus for my next plane but a very good friend of mine has a 2005 A36, and that, and the support available from ABS and BT influenced my decision. Plus, now with my fiancé and 2 cats going back and forth from FL to MA we needed the extra room. It's amazing how quickly you can fill a 6-seat plane to max gross weight even with 300 more pounds than the Arrow could hold!!

So, HELLO everyone, and thank you for all the great information and help.

I'll be posting something in Engine Talk shortly when I figure out how to post or link to a 25 MB video… there's a mystery noise I would like your thoughts on.

Up load you video to YouTube or Venmo and post the link. Welcome and congrats on the new plane. OBTW. This thread is worthless without pictures.

Congrats and welcome!

Nice job putting a picture in your avatar, because that's usually the first thing people here ask for.

An A36TN is a huge upgrade from a Turbo Arrow, I'm sure you'll love it and will find plenty of helpful folks here to get the most out of it.

This plane has a great panel and that's the reason I selected this one. I fell in love with the colorful displays.

Well done! Great panel!
