Bonanza 3113V started as a
"straight" model 35 in 1947, serial 535. In 1950,
Beech bought back 14 of these 35's to make a special production run
of 14 model 35R's. These were retrofitted with the
"A" model and "B" model modifications plus the
new wing root fillet planned for the "C" model to follow.
A few years ago it was painted in the colors and paint design as
it came out of the factory in 1950 and the 1950 interior was
reproduced as close as possible to the original.
Engine is the
original Continental E-185-8, 205 HP and cruises at 170 MPH at 9000
feet using "20-20". (inches MP and RPM)
Al and Phyllis Timberman
flew this airplane all over the US and Mexico in the 25 years prior
to Jack's purchasing it from them.
