Hello my name is madison murdock, I'm twenty-two and live in southern Arizona on the family farm. My family has a lot of history flying and i have always been a huge fan of it, but i finally have the time and means to hopefully get my license. My dad and grandfather own the 1963 P35 that was used as the prototype S35. It was originally owned by General Curtis LeMay. The 285 horse IO-520 was later replaced with the Lycoming 540 turbo which puts out around 350 horsepower! I only recently learned what amazing machines these Bonanzas are and feel extremely fortunate to have one in the family and want to share its great history. I am interested in anything to do with them or any other info or questions so feel free to write me. ill get pictures up soon
