Default Bonanza crash caught on video

That's interesting -- I never realized that Bo pilots didn't need to
use flaps for departure.
I presume there is something about the wing that makes them
unnecessary?


Depends on the Bonanza - I found that flaps 10 on an S-35 model made a
worthwhile difference to a soft field takeoff (broke ground sooner).
