Over the last 15 + years I have been flying an N35 Bonanza - it is a nice airplane, but it is 46 years old - and after spending most of 2 days watching a group of RVs practicing formation flying at SQI prior to OSH this year, ---
Do any of you have any flight experience in a Bonanza, and if so, give me your "unbiased" flight comparison. I am not interested in aerobatics, most of my flying is weekend pleasure flights, business flights of 200 miles or less, and about 2 - 3 flights per year to Colorado to see our daughter. I prefer the cabin set up of the 7 or 9 - what sort of realistic cruise speeds could I expect with a 9 / 160hp / cs prop??
thanks in advance - this is a great site -
