BUILDING
A BETTER BONANZA
 It cruises easily at better than 165 knots,
can carry six (provided at least two aren't large), and has a range of
1,000 miles. The pilots who fly it generally love it, and the pilots who
don't generally respect it. Samples can be found on the used market
today in decent shape and for less than $150,000 -- a price that
undercuts some higher-end LSAs. It's an aircraft with decades of history
and a following to match. But this is aviation. Pilots always want
more. Fortunately, the aftermarket for Bonanza owners offers many ways
to grow. In seeking today's most popular mods for the A36 Bonanza,
we found pilots who wanted more of the same -- changes that let the
Bonanza fly farther, fly faster, fly safer, and carry more in more
comfort. That was perhaps predictable, but we also learned that
"predictable" doesn't apply to everything when it comes to Bonanza
mods. Click

OIL FILTERS COMPARED
 An oil filter is an
oil filter, right? Generally, yes — but there are some subtle
differences between the two aviation oil filters on the market,
Champion's line and the newer Tempest product. Aviation
Consumer's Larry Anglisano recently compared the two brands, and

OOPS,
BUT NOT BUSTED
 Deviations happen, even to the best pilots.
Some also may come with a heart stopping "call this number on the
ground." Knowing how to handle the call can improve your odds of keeping
it from becoming a violation. Even pros flying hundreds of hours a
year slip up once in awhile. Those of us who fly fewer hours, however,
clearly have increased odds of doing so. Nevertheless, when you do goof,
a request to call ATC doesn't have to become a license altering event if
you follow some time-tested advice. Click
