There was once a saying at Cessna that if it weren’t for the Bonanza, we
would be up to our ass with doctors and lawyers.. That's because the Bonanza
was a particularly high performance craft in the early days and the V tail
could present problems. It was a step up from cessnas that pilots with more
ego and ambition than hours of experience and careful training though it was
as easy a step up as going from a smaller car to a big luxury model.

I don’t get that reference, Bill, but it would be fine for stalling, perhaps
not spinning. Each student has to learn to enter and recover from a stall –
at a safe height.

I suspect that that AC was tested and certified to 2+ and 1.5- G's if at
all. That's old enough that standards were more lax. Frankly, I wouldn't
want to be in it doing a loop or stall or spin or anything else even if
you were the pilot. Although, since I'm from Wichita, I don't think a
piper would be much of a loss. What can that do that a Bonanza can't do?
