Jim believes that aviation is one of the greatest freedoms we enjoy in this country, and nobody probably enjoys it more. He began teaching himself aerobatics in 1992, and has since amassed over 20000 incident-free hours in over 100 aircraft types! Flying his certified aerobatic F33C Beechcraft Bonanza, he delivers an amazing demonstration that will leave all who see it completely mesmerized.

Almost everyone at an airshow has seen a Bonanza, but would never dream it could be capable of doing the aerobatic routine Jim Peitz puts it through! When Jim brings this unique plane to town, it’s a guaranteed head-turner – loops, point rolls, barrel rolls, snap rolls, Cuban eights, hammerheads (yes, this Bonanza goes VERTICAL!) and more are all part of a routine you never expected to see in a Bonanza. This F33C Bonanza handles it all in style, and with Jim’s expert touch he makes it all look easy. A truly show quality aircraft (one of very few Aerobatic Bonanzas ever built) with an awesome smoke system, this is the one act that air show fans will talk about long after the show.
