Oh, I absolutely agree - the neutral stability in roll is one of the
things that made the Bonanza so nice to fly. All it ever needed was
a light touch on the controls, and I found this valuable on those IMC
flights that won't necessarily in smooth air.

If you're flying any model Bonanza in IFR a wing leveler AP should be
considered minimum equipment.


And your back seat passengers will *really* appreciate a yaw damper :-)
