Why did he buy a Beechcraft Bonanza over a Cirrus SR22?

My friend is a big fan of the Cirrus SR Series. He was trained in a Cirrus SR20 and has quite a few hours in both the SR20 and SR22. Yet for his first plane, he bought a Bonanza F33A instead. Why did he do that? Because of of the cost. The Beechcraft Bonanza is often considered as one of the top alternatives to the Cirrus SR22. This Bonanza will achieve 90% of a SR22's performance at 25% of the...

    Great roadtrip! If you ever get the chance, visit the Henry ford museum in Dearborn, MI (edge of detroit). It has Lincoln’s rocking chair he was sitting in on that fateful night at the theater, george Washington’s actual fold out field mattress he used to sleep on, etc. The bus that Rosa Parks refused to get up from her seat is there too that you can go in if you want. It’s a feeling for sure…it’s silent and everyone just taking in the atmosphere what it must have been like to be there at the moment. There’s a ton of other stuff (kennedy’s limo he was tragically in, etc) that you can easily spend all day in the museum looking at. Attached to it is Greenfield village. It’s a period setting establishment on the grounds with Thomas Edison’s actual laboratory and you can go for rides in early 1900s Model T’s, etc. All the best to you!

      His annual was $2,500, while the Cirrus is around $6,000 - $15,000. Operating cost is not really comparable between the two as the two are completely different technology platforms. It's like comparing a modern Ferrari vs a classic Corvette.

    Does the LR model feel like it doesnt launch from a stop before and/or after getting the acceleration boost?
