Beechcraft Turbo Bonanza

The Seattle, WA owner of this Turbo V-tail Bonanza wanted something a little different for his aircraft.  This scheme incorporates some features similar that used on a Beech Bonanza 36TC (the way the top of the cowl is styled), but after that, it is highly customized - especially the wingtip.  Here is what he had to say:

"Craig - enclosed is the check for final payment for your services.  I want to thank you for a design that I wouldn't have done without your professional assistance.  I'm appreciative of the extra time you spent on my project when I was having a difficult time deciding which direction to go with on the initial design, and then in the end, for doing specifications on two optional wing tip designs and colors.

Someday, your business will expand to the point where your name will be as common in aviation as Calvin Klein's is  in the fashion business.  Someone will be looking at my airplane and will say "Is that an original Craig Barnett?  You're so lucky!"  Thanks."
