Loading luggage in other than Mooney
The other day I saw a guy drive up to his Bonanza with a car load of
bags. This is something I've done for years in my Mooney but many years since I've flown a Bonanza or Cessna. In my Mooney, the baggage door opens at the top of the cabin (the door is long enough that it goes down to the middle and opens like a clam shell, much like a car's trunk). I can easily load heavey bag on top of heavy bag in the Mooney by dropping them down on top of each other. How did I do it back in the Bonanza days? It looks like I must have had to load a bag in the bottom door , reach in, hold that bag up and then slide another bag under it. Or perhaps I climbed in through the back seat and loaded the bags that way. How do most of the Bonanza/Cessna pilots here do it? Why would anyone put a baggage door on the bottom of the baggage area. Its like loading your truck though a little hole near the license plate on your car. -Robert |
