The term "doctor killer" comes from the fact that Beech aircraft are expensive to buy and own and the Bonanza can easily get away from a pilot who's a bit rusty. Doctors made up a disproportionate percentage of the ownership because they could afford the plane. They also are extremely busy people and tended to not have enough time to fly enough to handle the Bo safely, so they also made up a disproportionate percentage of the accident statistics. Whether you're a surgeon or a statistician, the plane will bite you if you don't keep in practice. Being poor, on the other hand, would tend to steer you away from it anyway.
