In this video I show the details of my well equipped 1958 J35 Bonanza's instrument panel. Looking from the pilots viewpoint into the the devices that make it all happen. Featuring a Garmin GNS430W, STEC 30 Autopilot and all the instruments to supplement IFR flight the airplane is well equipped to handle the load. The 1958 V-Tail Bonanza has a 470 cubic inch six cylinder balanced and blue printed fuel injected engine by Ultimate Engines.
The Beechcraft Bonanza is an American general aviation aircraft introduced in 1947 by Beech Aircraft Corporation of Wichita, Kansas. The six-seater, single-engine aircraft is still being produced by Beechcraft and has been in continuous production longer than any other airplane in history. More than 17,000 Bonanzas of all variants have been built, produced in both distinctive V-tail as well as conventional tail configurations.
In 1982 the production of the V-tail Bonanza stopped but the conventional-tail Model 33 continued in production until 1995. Still built today is the Model 36 Bonanza, a longer-bodied, straight-tail variant of the original design, introduced in 1968. A total of 396 were built.
