BEECH CRAFT Bonanza
V35, V35A & V358 thru D-9947
Total Flight Time: 2 hours, 3 minutes
Block Speed: 321 NM + 2 hours, 3 minutes = 157 knots
Reserve Fuel (45 minutes at 45 percent maximum
continuous power)
Enter the Cruise Power Settings table for 45 percent
MCP (or full throttle). The fuel flow for 45 percent
MCP is 9.6 gallons per hour.
Reserve fuel = (45 min) (9.6 GPH) = 7.2 gallons
Total Fuel = 28.7 + 7.2 = 35.9 gallons
The estimated landing weight is determined by
subtracting the fuel required for the trip from the ramp
weight
Assumed ramp weight = 3412 lbs
Estimated fuel from DEN to AMA = (28.7 gal) (6
lbs{gal) = 172 lbs
Estimated landing weight= 3412 -172 = 3240 lbs
Examples have been provided on the performance
graphs. The above conditions have been used
throughout. Rate of climb was determined for the initial
cruise altitude conditions.
