| When I started asking lots of questions about
a particular type of airplane (Beechcraft Bonanza), Mr. Ball's other book was recommended to me as one of the most
complete histories of the type. Bonanzas are beautiful airplanes and are
quite recognizable by the V-shaped tail. Both books are available from
Ball Productions.
I was interested in the history of a particular AD (Airworthiness
Directive) affecting early models of the Bonanza, and this book -- a sequel
to the former book -- contained that history. I didn't read much past that
history because the remainder of this book pertains to newer model Bonanzas
and those airplanes are significantly more expensive than the early models.
When I've made my millions, I'll pick this book back up.
This book is really only of interest to aviation enthusiasts. My
wife is a pilot and even she finds it boring. I love it though -- but consider
it light reading and a nice reference whenever I have technical questions
regarding Bonanzas.
Recommended for aviation enthusiasts.
