Specifications

The Beechcraft G36 Bonanza is powered by a Teledyne Continental IO-550-B engine, delivering 300 horsepower. It has a recommended time between overhaul (TBO) of 1,700 hours. The aircraft measures 27 feet 6 inches in length, 8 feet 7 inches in height, and has a wingspan of 33 feet 6 inches with a wing area of 181 square feet. The wing loading is 20.2 lb/sq ft, and the power loading is 12.2 lb/hp. It seats six and has a standard empty weight of 2,530 pounds, a maximum ramp weight of 3,663 pounds, and a maximum gross takeoff weight of 3,650 pounds.

Performance

The performance metrics of the G36 Bonanza include a takeoff distance of 1,000 feet for ground roll with approach flaps and 1,913 feet over a 50-foot obstacle. With flaps up, the ground roll distance is 1,250 feet, and the distance over a 50-foot obstacle is 2,130 feet. The demonstrated crosswind component is 17 knots, and the rate of climb at sea level is 1,230 feet per minute. The cruise speed at high speed is 174 knots with a range of 714 nautical miles at a fuel consumption of 15.7 gallons per hour.

Limiting and Recommended Airspeeds

The document lists various airspeeds critical for operation: V X (best angle of climb) is 84 KIAS, V Y (best rate of climb) is 100 KIAS, and V A (design maneuvering) is 141 KIAS. The maximum flap extended speed (V FE) for full flaps is 124 KIAS, and for approach flaps, it is 154 KIAS. The maximum gear extended speed (V LE) is also 154 KIAS, with the same speed for gear operating (V LO). The maximum structural cruising speed (V NO) is 167 KIAS, and the never exceed speed (V NE) is 205 KIAS.

Safety notes

  • All specifications are based on manufacturer's calculations.
  • Performance figures are based on standard day, standard atmosphere, sea level, gross weight conditions unless otherwise noted.
