Cruise speeds for most powerful piston versions of the aircraft are in the 160-knot category, with range figures of around 1,100 nautical miles. First, the structural design of the aircraft offers an optimized center of gravity that results in better flight stability and handling.

The third-generation drone is built to carry up to 100 pounds of cargo over 600 sm (521 nm), cruising at 150 mph (130 knots). Under full autonomy, it is expected to be able to land at a fulfillment center, receive packages, fly to a destination, unload its cargo, and take off for its next delivery.

Presumably, the pilot was flying on an instrument flight plan, as the flight maintained a cruise altitude of 7,000 feet (and ADS-B groundspeed of 125 to 130 knots) until about 12:53 p.m. Never exceed speed (Vne) for the V-35 is 192 knots. My earlier Bonanza had an inconveniently low gear-extension speed, around 135 knots (as I recall).

Presumably, the pilot was flying on an instrument flight plan, as the flight maintained a cruise altitude of 7,000 feet (and ADS-B groundspeed of 125 to 130 knots) until about 12:53 pm local time, roughly three hours into the flight. Never exceed speed (Vne) for the V-35 is 192 knots. FlightAware data stopped at that point.

This tendency is due to their high center of gravity and heavy engine over the nose wheel. For a soft field landing, you must maintain the approach speed +10/-5 knots for PPL and +/-5 knots for CPL, plus any gust factor applied. If the nose wheel digs in at high speeds, it can result in a loss of control.

Landing on a short field required full flaps and the slowest possible safe airspeed, a couple of knots above stall. That was about 89 knots, as I recall. That one-ton shift of weight drastically altered the aircraft’s center of gravity, unbalancing my landing trim setting. We had to get on the ground ASAP!
