I am a retired Airline Captain with a 55 F-35 and I watched the video of your Garmin upgrade, now I want to do the same thing with my Bonanza! And I too want to keep the Vintage look! I just got the authorization from the Chief Financial Officer, (my Wife!) so I’m looking forward to having the same fun you’re having! I really enjoy your Videos, so keep them coming!

[@petertarantelli]

“It’s got the wrong type of tail in the back, you’re supposed to have a V back there”…21Charlie for the win! OK OK, the A36 does have SmartGlide. We’ll call it a tie.😊 Thanks for taking me along!

[@garminaviation]

Thanks for watching! 👊

[@Jeffrey-xs3px]

I love your tennis shoes

[@chriscusick6890]

The v tail is what a Bonanza really is. 21C is my favorite easily.

[@Thealmostfitpilot]

Stevie did such an amazing job envisioning what she wanted and how it should look. For being such a young pilot, with so many hours, a vintage aircraft that has been “sponsor upgraded” or not, she took a chance on a classic and made it gorgeously hers. The cherry on top is the dimples. #fanboy

[@davidmangold1838]

Nice Stevie. I agree with what you did to your bonanza. I have a 1947 straight 35. I went with Aspen 1000 and an Avidyne IFD550. Kept my engine/fuel cluster, but have round EI engine and fuel monitor. Kept all the piano keys and my antique Brittain B4 autopilot. Have hydraulic prop and E225-8 engine. Great to watch your adventures. Dave, 40 year airline, 54 years of flying.

[@chriscusick6890]

Your combination sounds like a great choice to me.

[@larryburwell8550]

Well Garmin with Stevie you have a great pilot for an ambassador. Obviously very knowledgeable and easy on the eyes with a great personality. You go Stevie

[@Jimbo-pm1dp]

Shes beautiful....and very capable !!!

[@f14flyer11]

I knew it.....I predicted when you got the plane upgraded with Garmin you would become a Garmin spokesperson... nicely done..cheers

[@charlespenny7059]

Love anything with Stevie in it. Great job.

[@kevinscoggin3286]

Stevie, somehow I missed the "Fly to work with me" video. Went from that one to this one. Man, what a difference that panel makes. It's awesome. Sometimes less is better and I would say when it comes to Bonanza, your classic takes the cake. Congrats and thanks for taking us along for the ride.

[@FlyWithAlexMora]

That smart glide is next level!

[@davismontana9307]

Stevie, you knocked another one out of the park! All the best from TX

[@Garythefireman66]

Awesome head to head. Modern is nice, but vintage is way cooler

[@timmartin6410]

Now that was a fun video, comparing the two approaches to updating avionics. Love what Stevie has done with her Bonanza keeping the "vintage" feel, being "vintage" myself. But then again Jessica's Bonanza works for me, but then it does come down to what works for the individual pilot

[@N8MWQ]

Both panels are equally impressive, it's just a matter of preference. Love the SmartGlide feature, but, I personally love 21C's vintage look. Another great job in producing and editing the video Stevie!!!

[@pandathebandit]

Vintage feel and look for me always wins. I love that even with the 21C upgrade, it feels like it fits with the original panel design

[@DC-nc6vt]

Another great informative video Stevie. Garmin just keeps getting better. Love how you set up your panel. Thanks to you and Jessica.

[@TheVaughnClements]

More of these kind of quality videos thanks Garmin 🧑‍✈👍

[@kevindailey4412]

Hi Stevie, another awesome video, every time I see the panel I'm amazed! great job girl!!!! :)

[@brfts2001]

Love the updated avionics. at 3:45 that's Clinton Lake and my hometown!!

Why did I recognize this immediately?! Lawrence is so recognizable from the air.

[@agp7073]

I love the classic panel retention of 21C but the winner is anyone who does a Garmin upgrade regardless of their choice. Nice!

[@musoseven8218]

Lovely aeroplanes and upgrades, I love the air con/ice cooler in the C35 - everyday is a school day. Stunning aeroplane a favourite of mine since childhood with that V tail💜✌️ My preference though? Sorry😇.....the later A36 type (tail parts are easier to maintain, source and repair, plus the performance vs cost is in Mooney territory for performance, according to some, but for less money), three bladed prop, and I'm a sucker for wing tip tanks, but I'd prefer the refitted, retro type panel with round instruments (as in the C35) gorgeous! I can see how well the A36 panel works, the safety features are superb, but the C35 just looks more aesthetically pleasing to my eye. Thanks for sharing, really interesting video - lucky ladies being able to fly those two aeroplanes 👍😊💜✌️

[@billellington3732]

Stevie and Garmin Team....Very impressive and very inspirational for us owners of Vintage Bonanzas!! Can't wait for you to approve our B35 for the GFC 500 to go along with recently installed GNX 375, dual G5's...and waiting for EIS 275.

[@garminaviation]

Thanks for your support! 🙌

Props to Garmin for sponsoring Stevie. She’s a perfect ambassador for your brand and GA.

Smart marketing move for Garmin. Very smart, beautiful girl who absolutely loves planes and flying. She is a great ambassador for you.

Top notch ladies! My buddy and I are going to come out and say "Hello" and check your Garmin rebuild and setup. Be safe flying.

Great video. And don’t forget to look outside for the rest of us.

Great video.

[@erobi02]

❤ Stevie & Jess!!!

[@SargonDestroyerofWorlds]

Not a pilot. But I can see the allure of both setups. It would be nice to get a mix of the two, as I really like the look of Stevie’s panel.

[@mikercflyer7383]

Always love your videos ever since I discovered you on KZbin, what drew to you right away is your confidence and your bubbly personality. Enjoy Oshkosh 2023

[@phunistle442]

The A36 has a lot of wonderful features, and is obviously a much more modern airplane, HOWEVER, it's not a V-tail, and I love 21C :). Missing flying in N830T (1973 V35B) when I was a kid.

[@mitchellloder1032]

Love your videos

[@michaelwiggins3663]

Only in general aviation: "I brought a 70+ yr old airplane with $100k in avionics upgrades." That '21Charlie' panel is gorgeous but man aviation costs are staggering.

[@JackRobertsUK]

Nice package for sure!

[@davidsuminski4243]

WE LOVE STEVIE !

[@michaelmcmanus5196]

I’ve been flying and instructing in a Latitude with Garmin 5000 since Jan 2016. The Garmin 5000 rocks and is designed as single pilot ops, so it reduces the workload. Add the autothrottles into the fold and it’s great. I’d could go on and on, but I won’t.

[@cpy]

The GI 275's are so gorgeous

[@jersincl]

Yeah Stevie !

[@space1commander]

All those cool gadget from Gamin are in my bucket list for mine Mini P-40. But, the most impressive are the Hot Girls.

[@PatrickMichalina]

Any roadmap to allow the GNX 375 to drive the Smart Glide feature?

Stevie for the win

[@Notaslave1961]

Cool😊😊😊😊

[@PTRRanger951]

I love Garmin stuff. Not a pilot so the most expensive Garmin thing I have is an Overlander GPS lol. Have an older Fenix 2 ( I think) and an Instinct Tactical watches. I also use an old ( think I have had it since 2004 ) eTrex Legend and a eTrex 32x. Would love to have a GPSMap handheld one day. Also use Garmin Dashcams and had a dog collar for Law Enforcement K9 work. I love Garmin stuff. Can be pricy, but it hasn’t failed me. I have had at least 6 different type of vehicle GPS systems over the years.

[@PatrickMichalina]

Garmin should do more of these demos.

[@ericbuhrendorf]

Can you pull up checklists on the PFD in split screen?

[@Carlbritt]

I hope you are taking good care of this young lady, she is incredible!

[@joncox9719]

The Original Bush Pilots! 😁🥰😁

[@cpy]

Smartglide!?!? That is incredible, wow.

[@MickB235]

For the past few weeks , I've been installing a GDU470 into an A36 which already has a GDU460 , also added a GDL50R, GSB15, yaw damp servo and CoDetector . Not a bad instal considering, pilot and copilot panels easily removable which makes for one very spoilt avionics tech....BUT...I've got to say, that pivoting yoke arm assembly can be a downright pain in the arse

[@robertscranton8293]

Groovy..grooovy

[@stlflyguy]

Looks like the MP gauge needs a “snubber”. Love that you didn’t chop the panel in the C35.

[@terrytomlinson8772]

How fun?🎉

[@lanceg.8458]

CHT 406 degrees in cruise??? I'd trim that down with fuel or cowl flaps if poss... Great panel in the C35!!

[@geoffsummitt6703]

With you here. Anything over 380 and I start making changes. At 400 degrees the barrels have lost roughly half they're tensile strength and 50 degree rich of peak is peak cylinder pressure bad combo. All the new information is very eye opening and definitely changes the way you manage the airplane.

Look closer at 7:00 and you will see it is 425!

[@lanceg.8458]

@@kevinsislo7160 Correct... Ouchy..

[@C10Scottsdale]

Hi Stevie, Thanks for the great video. I noticed you stated you are a commercial pilot. Does that mean you are no longer in the software job you went to California for? Just curious if your love of flying provided a different path in life that is much more gratifying. Thanks again.

[@blegi1245]

Tell me how having a commercial certificate prevents one from working as a software engineer? She instructed while in college. Guess what? You have to have a commercial certificate to receive instructor rating.

[@strega77]

Love the my Garmin glass. Please have the word LIKE removed from Stevie's vocabulary

[@vk2ig]

Very hard to remove the word "like" from young people's vocabulary - it's part of their language, and is readily apparent on a daily basis. There would be plenty of words in older people's vocabulary which the young people would cringe at and say "Ewwww ... that's so like an old folk's word!"

[@lesdickert5984]

[@Nonsense116]

This video felt painfully corporate compared to Stevie's videos

[@flyingCPA]

it looks nice no doubt about that. however, invesing $60~80k on a plane that is only $60~80k is a rational decision? I am not trying to criticize. I am seriously thinking about doing the same myself. So I wonder what others think about this.

[@smark1180]

If you're a CPA why are you asking others? :>) What can you buy for $160K if you sell your plane for $80K? Would it be better than upgrading?

[@flyingCPA]

@@smark1180 I almost forgot that I once was a CPA!!! hahaha

[@jonconner3019]

60-80k for Stevie’s upgrade? If you can do it for that, do it.

[@vk2ig]

You might find the upgrade had a bit of sponsorship involved?

[@devendrajoshi4954]

Make me famous,ladies,as if,I’m not already,lol

[@carlbeaver7112]

I hope Garmin's aviation products are better than the garbage they sell for roads.

[@vk2ig]

I would expect that the rules applying to aviation components would dictate higher quality control for their aviation products. I am wondering though if the FAA might be a little less stringent for GA applications than the equivalent organisations in other Western societies?

[@azcharlie2009]

Sure would be nice to have all that gear.... Too bad it would take a "like" a couple hundred thousand dollars to buy it all. Maybe we monetarily challenged pilots could get the government to pay for it for us? "Like" the student loan forgiveness program??

You did a good job of that flight that you're a pandozan and everything's in your convenient for your fly. You're did a good job. I enjoyed. The? Instructors that tells you. How the the new wash panel operates and how could you operate a client or a different flights? Like on distance short distance and you're safe in the plane? You've got your gas a check your gas and oil before you lift off. And you. Check uh? Put gas. In? The plane for all 4 tanks are 3 tanks. And you're well quit you check your oil pressure. And all that make sure everything's everything's top shape and uh you're the fastest just send text fantastic job of applying. That's why enjoy I've seen her. Ha? Haha you're handling everything in your own plane? And you? Ever. Shall I lock with that plane? I knew a panel and everything else. You shouldn't enjoy that you get it the best thing. You said is the best thing you did you did graduation? Congratulations enjoy that plane that new plane that you put header all the work done
