    --> Beech-List message posted by: BobsV35B@aol.com In a message dated 10/1/2005 12:14:25 P.M. Central Standard Time, a35plt@yahoo.com writes: Hi out there, I am restoring my A35, serial D-1808. I would love to get info on the long 3rd window kit, has anybody installed one of these or have one for sale ? even drawings or pictures would be a huge help. I will be painting in the next month or so if I can't do this mod but would obviously like to do it before the plane is painted. Also wondering if anybody has got a tail cuff kit out there... Thanks, Robert Starnes Good Evening Robert, I would strongly recommend against putting the long window kit in an A35 Bonanza. It adds a lot of weight and entails a change in load distribution on the aft fuselage. Weight is always bad and the early airplanes are very lightly made. I do not believe it is a good ideas to change the load distributions in that portion of the aircraft. If you want a bit more rearward visibility, add the small aft windows. In actual increase in visibility capability, the small windows add almost as much USABLE visibility as do the P or S style windows. The best bet is to just leave the airplane as it was designed!

    --> Beech-List message posted by: Robert Starnes <a35plt@yahoo.com> -I have the small teardrop windows and am probably just going to stick with them and get this airplane done, I want a flyer not a hanger queen! That said since I am doing a ground up restoration and I plan on keeping this airplane my whole life (And I'm 31 so hopefully that will be quite a while)I thought it would be neat to have all the available mods done on it. BTW anybody got a set of tip tanks for sale cheep? plane is plumbed for them but I don't have the tank assemblies. > Thanks, Robert Starnes > > > Good Evening Robert, > > I would strongly recommend against putting the long > window kit in an A35 > Bonanza.
