"Big Blue's Legacy" 1994 B36TC N56GL (EA-572)

Kevin Rainosek, Murrieta, California

For as long as I can remember I have had a fascination with flying: the concept as well as the sense of freedom that must come along with being a pilot. I just never thought there was anything I could do about it. Then, in the spring of 2005, my girlfriend at the time (now my wife) offered me a ride with her and her dad in her dad’s 1981 A36 Bonanza, N499DL. That was it, I was hooked. I found that there was a way to have access to the freedom of flying.
