Ziad Bassil's Gear Reviews

The Bonanza 3's strengths are clear. It stays comfortable in rough air without excessive feedback, gives warning right before the limit, and floats up with top-tier efficiency in weak air. Yet there is one point Bassil deliberately repeats: this is not a high-B. Being easy to handle does not mean the class can be taken lightly. For a low-B pilot, he is explicit that crossing over after a season or two on a high-B is the safe evolution. So the Bonanza 3 is less a wing that made the EN-C easy than a wing that welcomes a pilot just stepping into EN-C without intimidating them. For the C pilot who wants 2-liner glide but doesn't want to be buried under too much information, this wave leading edge becomes the most welcoming doorway.
