In my (endless) airplane shopping, I often see what I consider to be possible opportunities in V-tailed Bonanzas... of which I have flown none.
There is the oft-repeated claim that the V-tail is more prone to tail-wagging, and the sometimes-heard counter that the C33 / F33 do it just as much (or almost as much), and that the wagging is just characteristic of flat-bottomed low-winged airplanes.
So which is it? Any reason why I, a heretofore-dedicated staright-tail Bonanza flyer should not at least consider a V-tailed Variant for Virtuous Velocity?
