First off, you need to make sure that the A&P/IA mechanic who does the pre-purchase inspection has nothing at all to do with the current owner. Get someone who will look it over from tip to tail and not "a wink and a nod" and the annual is signed off.

Second join the ABS, American Bonanza Society, something that every Bonanza owner should do.

Nice looking airplane and a big step head, just make sure you have a checklist when you fly it and make sure you ALWAYS lower the gear!

If you need to, call either myself or Tim. Better to ask beforehand than after its too late and costs you $$.
