Hey Keitexas, one question i'd like to make (if you allow me to): you said that you use wide open throttles from takeoff until cruise, backing off the props at 1000 ft. Before this latter procedure, do you get an RPM reading beyond the red line? I'm asking this because i've never flown a true Baron, but that's what i get in the simulator. Thanks in advance, best regards and great flights!
@flyinhigher1000 It is, manifold pressure drops as you climb. Go fast cruise setting at 8000ft is throttles wide open yielding about 18"-19" of manifold pressure, props 2500. Typically the throttles are wide open from takeoff until decent for landing unless you need to conserve fuel.
@contraposaune There is no procedure for a short field takeoff with flaps in a 58 Baron. The objective during takeoff in a light twin is NOT to become airborne before VMC ( 84kts ) if you do and lose an engine it's game over. So you rotate at 85 kts and keep the nose down to accelerate through blue line ( VSSE - 101 kts ) ASAP. Then gear up and pitch up for VY. Speed is the goal with a twin, not altitude. Altitude does no good if you don't have control of the airplane.
how heavy does the G58 & G36 handle compared to something like a 182 or 172 (more modern)? Can you give me some information please. Maybe what you think of it too? I really love the G58s and G36s... Thanks!
@dbflyboy917 In 3 words, so much better :) Dollar per dollar, a Bonanza or Baron is more expensive to operate, but pleasure for pleasure - if you've got the dough - think Beechcraft. If you've really got the dough, think Beech King Air :D
@schnitzel2k3 So you were looking for actual characteristics. Well, that's tough to express, overall the Bonanza and Beechcraft are heavier, but have the extra horsepower to compensate. They are both quite a bit faster than any Cessna in just about every phase of flight, and thereby need a little more skill to fly (i.e being able to maintain profiles). C172 - great for training and short distance flying. G58/36 is great for touring or light corporate travel.
what speed is Vy for you?

The Baron has got to be my favorite plane. It even seems to be quiet inside.

After takeoff what do you set the manifold pressure as and what did you set the prop rpm to?
flyinhigher1000 7 months ago
@flyinhigher1000 Throttle wide open until cruise and props back to 2500 at 1000ft.

@keitexas Thank You, but isn't the throttle always to be behind the props?

Maybe you need to discover a VMC roll after losing an engine.

@maggith98 A Baron doesn't require flaps for takeoff.

@maggith98 I'm pretty sure the G58 only needs flaps on short field takeoff?

Is this the 50th aniversery addition? sorry for misspelling. Sometime hop over to KRAP in Rapid City SD. would love to see plane in person!
