Default Bonanza (A36) Approach Speeds

The 36/A36 front seats are a little in front of the fwd CG limit, in the
33/35 models all the seats are behind the fwd limit. Fuel is the only
weight you can add to the Bonanza to shift the CG forward and that means you
have to keep a minimum fuel as ballast since the CG moves aft as you burn
fuel. It is essential on all the Bonanza models to do a take-off and a
landing W&B. [A good idea in any airplane]
