October 20, 201510 yr Came across this video today. About 27 minutes long. This B55 owner goes through his entire airplane from stem to stern, and provides a commentary on its virtues and comparing this mid-series B55 to other Beech models including the B58 and the Duke. Even some comments vs his V33 Bonanza. I absolutely love the paint scheme on this B55. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sH-MDAk9CMg Frank Patton Corsair 5000D Airflow Case; MSI B650 Tomahawk MOB; Ryzen 7 7800 X3D CPU; ASUS RTX 4080 Super; NZXT 360mm liquid cooler; Corsair Vengeance 64GB DDR5 4800 MHz RAM; RMX850X Gold PSU;; ASUS VG289 4K 27" Display; Honeycomb Alpha & Bravo, Crosswind 3's w/dampener.

October 21, 201510 yr Author Agree! And the video insight into the Baron B55 shows how good a job MilViz did with the model.

October 21, 201510 yr Great video, thanks for sharing. I will take out my Milviz onr for a spin immediately Ooo! I feel a paint coming on. :wub: Ron, that would be terrific, as this paint looks really cool Any attempt to stretch fuel is guaranteed to increase headwinds My specs: AMD Radeon RX6700XT, AMD Ryzen 9 5900X, 32GB RAM, 34" monitor, screen resolution: 2560x1080
October 22, 201510 yr Author The same pilot has what appears to be Go Pro recorded flights in that Baron B55 as well. Not necessarily great as far as video production goes, but provides some good insight into flying the Baron. He is certainly more seat-of-the-pants at times.......

October 31, 201510 yr Author Ooo! I feel a paint coming on. :wub: Ron. Been watching for this one. Still on the agenda?

October 31, 201510 yr Very much so. It is, as far as I recall, the most difficult paint I've done! The tail fin IS the most difficult! I fondly thought it would be a case of plonking a decal on each side. I couldn't have been more wrong. Still, it's keeping me out of the bars and bordellos. Another week I reckon.

October 31, 201510 yr Author Ah Ron. Go out and slosh down a couple of OSH's and relax for a day or so! Then sprinkle some salt on that bird's tail and that will make it behave better for you!
