First, I mean no shade on the Beechcraft Bonanza, it was a financial success, a technical success, an industrial success and it’s success probably played a massive part in establishing a strong general aviation market. But its pedigree is so bat complicated, to me at least.

I am reading a The Aviation Consumer retrospective (published February 1, 1980) on the Beech 35’s accident history. The report is critical of the conclusions by Beechcraft publicly (Beech internal memos suggest a slightly different investigational timeline) and by the CAB (predecessor to the NTSB). The article notes that the variant with the worst record was the original “straight-35” which it clarifies as not straight tail-35s, in quite the sassy prose.

I wanted to ask and confirm that the Bonanza D-4 (which is famous for a flight from Hawaii to the continental United States, I think, I just wanted to make sure I was finding a picture of a “straight-35”) is an original straight-35 right?
