Hi All. I'm a former Bonanza pilot, and joined the forum because I am considering getting back into flying. With 100 hrs under my belt, I bought a 1980 A36 15 years ago and flew it about 300 hours over 3 years. It's the only plane I've ever owned, and I am glad I started there. I did my Instrument Rating in it, and we took a number of memorable family trips up and down the west coast. But with other financial priorities looming, and no real mission, I began to find myself doing too many hops around the patch to stay fresh, and not enjoying them enough for what they were. So I sold the plane, and since then, my flying has been limited to occasional stick time in my good friend's J-3 Cub (whole different animal, and lots of fun, too).

However, now I'm looking into possible regular travel to/fro an area that not well served by commercial options. That calls for another Bonanza!! Maybe ... we'll see. Anyhow, I plan to lurk around here for a while and see what the GA and Beechcraft worlds look like these days.

With thanks in advance for all the knowledge,

Win

I am happy to report a change in status from Aircraft Shopper to Bonanza Owner :pilot:
And so the post won't be worthless, I am attempting to add a Pic . . . hopefully I'm better at this than I am with Garmin buttonology (all new to me), but I don't know. Okay . . . previewed . . . pardon the dive.

The bird is a '79 V35B (D-10284) with 3770 TTAF, IO-550, Osborne tips, KFC-200, Aspen, GNS430, Insight G2.

Just completed the BPT program at Concord which was very helpful for me. I also met some fellow Beech folk with whom I hope to stay in touch. A fellow BT'er (Rocky H) popped in at my hangar today at KRHV to introduce himself and to chat. It's nice to be around the airport again.

Gotta dash now.
