- In this video, we're going to be discussing the rigging and adjustments necessary for flying a B36TC. This aircraft is a favorite of mine and I wanted to make sure that everyone who watches this video understands the basics of flying it.
If you're new to aviation or you're an experienced pilot who's looking to learn more about a specific aircraft, this video is for you! By the end of this video, you'll have a basic understanding of the rigging and adjustments required to fly a B36TC. Let's go fly one!
Join us for a detailed behind-the-scenes look as Bill from Atlantic Beechcraft helps us on our quest to make our Bonanza airplane perfect. Watch as we address the rigging issues of the ailerons and flaps, perform various adjustments, and discuss potential future upgrades for the plane. This is your complete guide to Bonanza rigging and what it takes to achieve smooth and level flying.

Bill at Atlantic beechcraft definetly know his stuff😊
Hey @thehealthylivinggroup747 Thanks for sharing. 👍👍👍👍👍👍
According to the American Bonanza Society people, one should never adjust flaps to correct a heavy wing. Myself and another gentleman are currently rigging an N model 35 that is out of rig. The plane is about 15 MPH slower than it should be. A previous shop had the right wing off and we’re afraid it wasn’t installed correctly. The plane has a heavy right wing. We found the right flap lower than the left. We corrected aileron travels, but now need to rig the flaps. It’s going to be a long process.
Thanks for the info. Correct. The right way for us is to actually jack the plane adjust the wing first. The plane flys great and we don't have any deflection. We are way within the tolerance to do a small adjustment on the flap. For now anyway.
My discussions with the techs is we should zero out all the flaps and ailerons to exactly where they should be. Then jack the plane and adjust the wing at the root for straight flight. Then if we need a tweak on ailerons we can go from there. I did not want to go that expense yet. Its a whole day project.
Is your plane not placarded that shoulder harness must be worn at all times by pilot?
Always start with flaps rigged to fuselage edge. Then rig aileons. tips will vary sometimes.
Hey @lyonknives1784 Thanks for sharing. 👍👍👍👍👍👍
Do you have the main wheel landing light kit?
No tip tanks available for the B36TC. It has a wing structure from a Baron, internal structure and fuel close to the wing tip wont allow tip tanks. Slightly resetting the wing incidence will be necessary for trim correction you seek. Droopong flaps will slightly increase drag. You have embarked on a long term process of slight tweeks and test flights to get it perfect. I dud that on a P-51 back in the 1970s, about 75 hours of short test flights alone befote it was where we wanted it in all 3 axes. When finished it flew beautifully, but it was a LOT of work. The 51 is an extremely trim sensitive plane, every small power or attit i de change requires trom adjustment, don't think I would start down that rabbit hole on a 36 series Bo 17:21 nanza unless it was annoyingly out of rig, but I wish you good luck. BTW, I had a B36TC back in 1983, much nicer flying than an A36 due to its longer wing and vortex generators on the leadung edge. Flys almost as nicely as a 35 series, though still not as light on the controls.
Hey @jamesnelson7415 Thanks for sharing. 👍👍👍👍👍👍 Great insights. I think we plan to find another project plane we can do more to.,
he shouldn't drop the flap he should twist the wing
Yes we talked about that. We are sill in tolerances and did not need to go to that level. Thanks
Just stop right there, quit wasting money with that nonsense that won’t do anything and Take it to Blackwell aviation in PA and get rid of that stupid turbo. The Blackwell upgrade without the dumb turbo is faster and ten times the airplane it will ever be from the factory.
