This is the story of owning and operating a 1993 Beech Bonanza A36 in the UK and some of its adventures.
I have been so frustrated during 2007. As usual I have flown nowhere near as much as I would have liked. Despite the utility of owning a plane and being able to jet off (or is it piston off!) wherever I like, the whenever has been a bigger problem.
What with seemingly hundreds of small kids (four), a very busy business (that pays the bills to fly) and a wife that demands at least some attention I have just not been able to dedicate the time I should to my hobby of flying.
That said, last year I managed a trip to Paris, a trip to Inverness, several beach days with the kids at faraway places and lots of other small trips and I thoroughly enjoyed being a Beech Bonanza owner.
Roll on 2008 where again I will make some prediction of flying hundreds of hours and miss my target by much the same amount!
