Hi all,
I recently signed up here, as I'm looking at possibly buying an older Bonanza (G35). I've owned 6 previous aircraft, the newest being a 1979 Piper, and including one particularly old one (1943 Taylorcraft war bug) so the age of the Beech isn't too much of a concern, but the model is completely foreign to me.
Right now I'm reading as much as I can here, to learn what I can, while I look for an experienced A&P to do my pre-purchase inspection.
Tim

Hello Tim and welcome!
My suggestion, if you haven’t already done so, is to read Larry Ball’s book “Those Incomparable Bonanzas”.
There is a wealth of information there.

Welcome Tim!
Good luck with your search. Where will you keep the new Bo?

I don't think the flight school is there any more, "Pontiac Flight Service"...it was on Airport Road on the Northeast corner of the field.
