Overview

The BEECHCRAFT P35 is a single-engine piston Bonanza in the Model 35 V-tail family (variants run from the 35 to the V35B). The family tops out at up to 5 passengers, 148 kt cruise, 480 nm range and a 17000 ft ceiling. Those are family maxima, not P35 figures. The documents here cover a tip-tank STC, control rigging and an autopilot bulletin.

  • The tip-tank STC (20 gal per tank) allows 3325 lb max takeoff weight. Utility category applies at 3125 lb or less with the tanks empty.
  • With the STC, add 15% to takeoff and landing distances and cut rate of climb 6%. Cut range 6% and endurance 10% before counting tip fuel.
  • Family maxima (up to 5 passengers, 148 kt, 480 nm) cover the whole Model 35 line, not the P35 alone.
  • Check any Dynon autopilot: a January 2025 bulletin requires a P35-specific pitch servo kit for earlier installs.

About this document
What is the maximum takeoff weight of the BEECHCRAFT P35 with tip tanks?

For a BEECHCRAFT P35 with the tip-tank STC, the supplement lists max ramp weight of 3335 lb and max takeoff and landing weight of 3325 lb. Utility category applies at 3125 lb or less with empty tip tanks.

How does the tip-tank STC change BEECHCRAFT P35 performance?

For the BEECHCRAFT P35 at the new maximum gross weight, increase takeoff and landing distances by 15% and decrease rate of climb by 6%. Decrease range by 6% and endurance by 10%, before counting tip tank fuel.

Is the BEECHCRAFT P35 covered by any autopilot bulletin?

Yes. A Dynon bulletin dated January 23, 2025 applies to BEECHCRAFT P35 aircraft with a Dynon autopilot installed to Revision E or earlier of the Bonanza P35-V35B manual. It requires a P35 pitch servo kit.

What cruise speed and range does the BEECHCRAFT P35 have?

The inputs give no P35-specific cruise or range. The Model 35 family, which includes the BEECHCRAFT P35, is listed at up to 148 kt cruise and 480 nm range. Those are family maxima, so check the P35's own manual.

Weights, CG and limits (tip-tank STC)

Per the STC supplement for N35/P35 (s/n D-6562 through D-7309, except D-7140): max ramp 3335 lb, takeoff 3325 lb, landing 3325 lb. Forward CG is 77.0 in to 2800 lb, then moves to 82.1 in at 3325 lb. Aft CG is 84.7 in, or 85.7 in below 3125 lb. Maneuvering speed is 123 kt CAS.

Tip tank use and checks

Two 20 gal tip tanks transfer fuel to the mains by electric pump at about 15 gph. Start transfer with both mains at least 1/2 full, in level flight only, and watch for main tank overflow. Drain each tip tank daily before first flight and check the filler caps. Takeoff is prohibited with more than 1/4 tip fuel difference.

What to check when buying

The ABS guide for V-tail Model 35s covers the differential control mechanism, pitch trim actuator, nose-down trim for descent, flap actuator leaks, aileron rod ends and magnesium surface corrosion. Confirm lubrication is kept up. Check the autopilot against the Dynon bulletin. The parts catalog shows different main gear and brake options by serial number, so match parts to the airframe.

Summary written by AI from the source document. Check the original before relying on it. See which parts of Sprinkle are written by AI.

Safety notes

  • With the STC, spins and acrobatic maneuvers are prohibited when above 3125 lb or with fuel in the tip tanks. Load factor limits are 3.8G flaps up and 2.0G flaps down.
  • If tip tank gauges differ by more than 1/2 tank, land with flaps up.
  • The ABS guide says Beechcraft manuals take precedence, so use the Maintenance or Shop Manual for the specific serial number when rigging controls.
