Jason & Harrison - Thanks for your work to convey my Dad's passion for aviation & N34TP in the story! I wrote a long comment below, but you did great job showcasing just how much the plane meant to our family.
I’m the son of Tom, who owned the plane for 39 years & Jason references in the video. First, a genuine thank you to, Jason & Harrison, for an amazing job helping pay homage to and helping my Dad share the story of N34TP. Thank you for honoring him in such an incredible way. As an inventor & engineer, my Dad is the most meticulous & passionate person I’ve ever known. I was 3-years old when my dad bought the plane, so nearly every childhood memory I have is intertwined with “Princess.” (My Mom & Dad named each of their planes.) As I watched Jason & Harrison tell the story of the plane and so many things came rushing back: 1. The sound of the master avionics switch brought me to tears. I haven’t heard that fast clicking sound in 20-years. (Timestamp: 49:09) 2. I can still remember the smell of the fuel, when I stuck the little cup into the test hole during pre-fight checks. 3. The reason the underside of the plane looks so good is because I was the only kid whose Saturday chore was using foaming “Scrubbing Bubbles” to clean the plane’s undercarriage at 7-years old :) One of my favorite stories of flying with my Dad was our trip to Oshkosh in 1989 (or 1990) for the annual airshow. We would camp next to the plane and my dad wanted to get one of the best spots possible. (Those of you who have camped at Oshkosh know just how many rows of planes there are and the long walk each day.) So at 7 or 8 years old, I hopped out of the plane after landing and my dad gave me a handheld walkie-talkie. I was on a mission, I had to find the best spot. I went from row to row while my dad was still taxiing and found it…a spot all the way up in Row 8! I was ecstatic and didn’t pay attention to the orange cone in the middle of the spot. I radioed Dad and told him to taxi up to Row 8. A few minutes later he emerged at the end of the row and I started marshaling him in. As he turned into the spot, he gradually had to give it more power…then more power….then more power….eventually getting it in. (Apparently the orange cone was marking a low-lying area in the grass.) After Dad shut down the engine and popped the door open, a friendly guy emerged from behind the plane and walked up to my dad. He greeted my dad with a friendly “Welcome to Oshkosh! That’s an incredible plane!” My dad, knowing the brotherhood amongst the aviation community replied, “Well thank you! She’s a Bonanza B36TC!” The guy responded back - “Great…now can you come help me put my tent back up?” (Apparently those turbochargers work pretty well!) I’ll find time to add more memories here, but I’m so grateful another pilot will get the opportunity to enjoy what was a major part of my childhood. (Reposted comment at request of Jason)
This was an amazing video which really brought me to tears about the story behind it, as well as your reply here. Your dad obviously took very much pride in that plane and took good care of it. And it's awesome that it will be flying again once more ❤
Good times and great memories! Blessings to your Father, to you, and to all of your siblings! Time spent with family are priceless, so keep making more of them!!
A&P and lifetime Bonanza fan here. Let me tell you, that is a once in a lifetime find. Bring that one home to mom, put a ring on her, and keep her for life! You'd have to pry that plane away from me with a crowbar, absolute dream airplane.
I own a 1960 Beechcraft Debonair 35-33 with the io470J. I will not sell it tell I can’t fly it anymore. The plane you found is once is a lifetime find it truly is a Cadillac. This is the best plane you have picked up.
Been to Spruce Creek a bunch of times to go get food and walk around and look at all the planes. Always noticed this Bonanza just sitting around, very cool to see what a hidden gem it really is! Glad it will be flying sooner than later again!
Dude, what a time capsule! I literally bursted into laughter when I saw the fuel, absolutely unreal. If an abandoned airplane had a chance of flying again, this one is at the top of the list! What a great steal, happy for you!
Want to keep those rubber door seals that nice forever? Use GPL-105 oil on them. It's a little spendy, but a little goes a long way and they'll stay soft and never get brittle.
You gotta love the build quality! I mean 13 years of just sitting there and then... 2 prop strokes.... You can tell it is built as a labour of love, it screams at me through the screen of my bloody phone! Love this!
Please keep the panel original as long as you can! Those old King indicators are so cool to look at, especially when you have the autopilot engaged! Much more charming than modern glass and they seem to just work forever!!
Great find. However, you only need the fuel pump to prime the engine before start. If the pump is on it's running way too rich. Thus the smoke. Also, that's why it didn't shut down after the 1st start up. Good Luck!
My immediate thought was "Split-window, Stingray coupe.” This is my dream airplane. If I had it and the weather was too ugly for flying, it go out to the airport just to sit in it and whisper sweet nothings to it. What a doll.❤
Kudos to the former owner -- a well maintained plane will last a lot longer than a poorly maintained one. Glad this beauty survived the Florida sun and is going to a good home!
Bittersweet Bonanza, but truly a genuine Unicorn esp. w/1400 hrs. My belated condolences to the PO on the passing of his beloved wife...that part of the story hit me hard and his sentimental attachment to the airplane made it this all the more of a heartfelt story. Continued good luck and Godspeed.
Such a nice Airplane! When you open the door and I saw that interior, I started salivating! What a beautiful iconic airplane for sure. Very nice. I hope it goes to a nice home, and people get to fly all over the place and enjoy it and make incredible memories. Take care.
What an amazing find! It's unfortunate the circumstances of the seller having to sell the aircraft, but I'm sure he will be happy to know that someone will get to enjoy it. That interior is amazing, and honestly, I wouldn't even change the interior, it's pretty mint the way it is.
Owner's son here...the original paint scheme can be seen in the photo (Timestamp: 13:16). That's why the custom carpets in the video are the color they are.
Dont change the interior this is so rare and clean just repaint it and semd it off no need to spend money on the looks just the mechanical opponents thanks for the video!
My Dad had a C model V tail, I called him to ask him if his burned oil, he advised that his burned oil like no other, he tried to slow the oil burn down but it just burned oil. My Dad is 94 and loved flying, I. The only one in my family that picked up flying, I have 40 acres south of Tulsa Oklahoma, I fly ultra light aircraft off of my land. ( Tukan Trikes)
Such a great find Jason, I had no doubt it would fire right up. And of course and bird next had to come flying out, par for the course. Congratulations Amigo!
Jason that is a fantastic airplane. The interior looked like a time capsule, in brand new condition! It fired right up, much easier than I thought it would, and I assumed it would start easily, just not that easily! What a fantastic purchase.
That plane looks amazing as it is. It has an amazing set of instrumentation in the panel. Looks like we may be disappointed to find there are no birds nests inside the air frame. At 19:54 there is a sign that says "No acrobatic manuvers approved except those in the flight manual.". Inquiring minds want to know what acrobatic maneuvers are approved. :) One suggestion. Take the previous owner up for a flight after the plane is flying again.
This is a hell a nice unit!! We’ve got a Beechcraft SIERRA . It’s four place , 200horse , retractable landing gear.. would love to have the 6 place turbo
What an beauty, you would be mad not to keep this one Jason!!👌My guess two turn to Start, Starting off the button after that long is an indication of its condition..
Wow. As someone working on my PPL I would love to have that plane. A great plane to go through all my ratings and also great for trips with the friends too!
You really should salute the owner in the care level. I have a barely used 2001 Mastercraft stored indoors. Showroom. Just like this plane. SALUTE BONANZA MAN!
The days of old steam gauge aviation still need to be appreciated especially in high performance aircraft in my opinion! While everything is prone to failure at a moments notice I’d trust an ole steam gauge way before any electronic device. I believe electronics have their advantages but there’s always an iPad for those tasks. Like was said earlier!, definitely keep the panel. The aviate and navigate part is slowly being turned over to electronics slowly but surely and the two are becoming a lost art with everything the electronics do.
What a find. My uncle had a V tail Bonanza that was such a little hot rod. Loved flying in it. If that was my plane, I'd leave the panel as is. I predict it will start right up.
Nice Bo! But that elevator looks like it’s loaded with filiform corrosion. (Pin worm pattern). That spinners not legal. (Can’t have a chrome plated spinner). When you do the gear, drop the struts off completely and do the middle seal. If that seal fails the gear possibly partially collapse and take out the wing skin when the gear retracts. It’s smoking because you have the boost pump on. Turn the boost pump off before you start. Youre flooding the engine and that’s why it wouldn’t shut down when you pulled the mixture.
@@quietobserver4636 it causes imbrittalment (weakens the aluminum) and the chrome itself can mask cracks. So having a weakened spinner on a prop going 2700rpm coming off in flight can be a safety issue.
Nice Bonanza. I notice after lubricating the cylinders, you started to rotate the prop counter clock wise, if the aircraft it's equipped with vacuum pumps, and you counter rotate the engine, there is a good possibility of damaging the pumps, but again, I may be mistaken.
"That's a diamond in the ruff" G,day from Sydney Australia. Very nice plane: would be nice to see it through annual inspection. Points of interest * Wheel struts seals * Control cables * ADSB * Any outstanding ADs * Change over nav lights to LEDs 🫣🇦🇺
I think you scored big time!!! What a dream. There may be some Corrosion in the cylinders, but you'll know once you scope it. Being a Continental, you won't have to worry about the camshaft being out of oil and corroded. It's going to run!!!
I really enjoy your videos and have developed a strong interest in flying. Although I haven't flown yet, I hope to in the future. It would be fantastic to see the airplanes you work on see it fly. Thank you for sharing your content; I always look forward to your videos.

It was on honor to tell your families story and how a little airplane can mean so much. I’m looking forward to meeting you all some day !
What a wonderful story. It makes the video complete!🤩

Not a aircraft to sell. Maintenance and put her back in service. A true keeper.

Couldn't have said it better myself!
The speed of an early wardbird, the reliability of Beechcraft and the room for the family. It's a piston aviators dream plane.
I’m gonna get me one a dem! 👌
I own a 1960 Beechcraft Debonair 35-33 with the io470J. I will not sell it tell I can’t fly it anymore. The plane you found is once is a lifetime find it truly is a Cadillac. This is the best plane you have picked up.
Wow..that's one heck of a find!!
You got yourself a winner. Some more TLC and she is going to be just perfect! Kudos to the former owner for keeping it so nice!
Been to Spruce Creek a bunch of times to go get food and walk around and look at all the planes. Always noticed this Bonanza just sitting around, very cool to see what a hidden gem it really is! Glad it will be flying sooner than later again!
This is definitely the coolest plane you’ve gotten since the 401. Absolute keeper!
No keeper, already sold. Just a flipper
@@rickc303 😭
SURPRISED it wasn't flown home the same day.
Absolutely no way I would ever sell this airplane. This will be the best airplane you will ever own. If you sell it you WILL regret it forever.
PLEASE do not change the cockpit! It looks so good as it is.. :)
Agree!!! 👍
AMEN
agreed. big shoes to fill to make the panel look so perfect.
I agree 💯
They sold it 🤷♂️
Dude, what a time capsule! I literally bursted into laughter when I saw the fuel, absolutely unreal. If an abandoned airplane had a chance of flying again, this one is at the top of the list! What a great steal, happy for you!

I totally agree nearly 30yrs Beechcraft maintenance just use the pump to prime it then shut it off.
To bad you sold it that's a Cherry!!!
I don’t think he had the alternator switched on, either.
@@haleskj so it's an electric pump then runs on mechanical?
@@danpolk Is that normal to have a separate power switch for the alternator?
Many alternator installations have a switch and separate CB for the field circuit.
Man ... This is like finding a 67 corvette under a tarp in a barn that grandpa bought and never drove.

Love the color. Please keep it green!! Really glad you rescued her.
That is a stunner!! That shade of green is gorgeous. I'm guessing that it might be the best hidden Bonanza in the world.
Love your channel, THANK YOU
That thing is mint beyond belief! It's like a barn find with no rodent damage, no rust, and a brand new interior. That just doesn't happen.
Ooh wauw, keep this plane also for missions. The bonanza can start soon flying with a purpose.
What a beauty!!
Not everything has to be today's state of the art - I'd leave that entire panel alone!
Such a nice Airplane! When you open the door and I saw that interior, I started salivating! What a beautiful iconic airplane for sure. Very nice. I hope it goes to a nice home, and people get to fly all over the place and enjoy it and make incredible memories. Take care.

@@adeveo9067 You should know better than to dog on someone showing respect to the dead. Not everyone follows the same sheep as you,
Disgrace.

I absolutely love the character of this plane! I would not change anything on it! Absolutely LOVE IT!
That paint scheme immediately made me think, what Florida sheriff office owned that plane?

@@lxturtle1898 Sorry about your loss I lost my Mom in August
🤣😂🤣😂
😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
or a rabid ND fan. I saw some Lears from old notable ND alum athletes in this color scheme.
God I would pamper that plane like it was my first child. What an awesome plane!
Very happy for you guys and your find! Some good Karma there. You deserved that and the plane deserved you. Thank you for keeping them flying.
I just started an A&P apprenticeship in large part because of this channel and specifically the 401
The find of a lifetime…… Beautiful !!
What a find! Great plane is such awesome condition. With some TLC that will provide many fun hours of flying. Great find Jason.
I love that the prop tips have the same paint scheme as the rest of the plane!
It sure is pretty cool
Yeah I don't think I've ever seen that before. Is that a factory option or an expensive aftermarket?
Dont change the interior this is so rare and clean just repaint it and semd it off no need to spend money on the looks just the mechanical opponents thanks for the video!
If ever there was an aircraft you should keep, its this one lol!!
Awesome! Thank you for watching!

Wow, Jason. What a find. Congratulations to the lucky owner. Have a safe and awesome weekend everyone. See you next week.

Thank you👍🏻
N34TP is currently assigned and registered to a Bell 407 helicopter.

The license numbers have to be renewed every so often. If it is not renewed the FAA will eventually reassign it. That's probably why.

@@quietobserver4636 I think they are assuming it was unapproved and chromed. If it is FAA-approved it’s totally legal.
