"I have a couple of Baron hours but that's it"
If you have flown a Baron, then you have flown a Bonza! Handle very much the same IMHO - as long as both donks are running.
Well, except for the V35 - acknowledged as having the best control "feel" of all the lighties.
C210 ? Don't get me wrong - I think they are a good bush workhorse, but ........... did I tell you about the day I stepped from the V35 into a C210 (one up) and when it came time to rotate on TO from a fairly short strip (Jaba knows it!) had a moment of anxiety cause the control force required was so great relative to the V35B that I thought I had left the control lock in? Two hands on the wheel and a big pull back saved the day!
