Piston single research
"Allen" wrote in message . .. "dlevy" wrote in message .. . What is the S35 model? What years were they produced? Thanks. 1964 and 1965 (oops pulled the trigger too quick) V-tail. I drooled over one for a couple years before buying a Beech Travel Air D95A. -- *H. Allen Smith* WACO - We are all here, because we are not all there. |

Mike,
Love the airplane, but hate the headroom. Never been an issue for me, but that obviously depends a lot on body size and seating posture. Also, on the GT model, headroom is increased. One obviously needs to try before investing 100k, but an airframe 25 years younger than the Bo also discussed in the thread would mean a lot to me. Two doors and a more modern design, too. -- Thomas Borchert (EDDH) |

Note a book but...
http://www.risingup.com/planespecs/ Just remember (as has been noted here on past occasions) that the data in this webpage is often laughably inaccurate. The page on the Pathfinder, for example, lists a "62 gallon" fuel capacity. The correct answer is either 50 (without tip tanks; although I don't believe any were built *without* tip tanks, but I could be wrong) or 84 gallons with tip tanks. When they get basic stuff like that wrong, I tend to lose faith in the rest of the data. -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |

I believe it is 39 with 1.5 unusable each wing. -- Regards, Ross C-172F 180HP KSWI |
