Default Bonanza Down in AZ

Those were the days, my friend. I was a slow student. It took me 17 hours to in
a T-34.

Not me! During primary training, I soloed a Bonanza with a total
of 15 hours in the log book....well, we called it a T-34, but I
was doing solo spins in it before I hit 20 hours, and.....I was
getting paid to do it! :-)
