I pay $3.70 for 100LL. While we are showing planes here's my junk. When the cars are not fast enough this will fly 200mph all day long....
Is that a A35 or a A36? If either I wasn't aware they would break 200 MPH or 200 KPH in straight and level flying
its a f33. not exactly 200 mph,195 or so, close enough. it does 168 knots at 7000 ft. Comanche guys have always been jealous of the bonanzas speed,
Ha Ha
I loved racing the A 35 and A 36 Bonanza for distances over 300 miles
I wouldn't fly at there altitude though
We had several different Bonaza on my home field, a K model 250 HP V tail, a 1968 A 35 285 HP. Below 10,000 FT I couldn't stay with the A35,he had 1 to 3 MPH depending on the density altitude and payload weights. Above 10,000 he couldn't stay with me
What are the details on the F33, seating, HP and cruise speeds?
BTW, my 1960 250 moddle had a 1965 260 HP conversion from the firewall forward, it wasn't stock and I did have the airfamed optimised for speed at cruise, sliding the front two seats back all the way in cruise was worth 4 MPH, keeping 200 lbs. in the baggage compartment was worth some speed also
Little things like that add up, once a racer, always a racer
Sadly it got total in a hail storm in 2006 after moving it up here from SO CA in 2005, no hangars available to rent or buy at the local airport back then
I thought flying would be more fun, not so except for aerobatics
