"Crews worked through the night to remove the B36 Bonanza from the building"

A student pilot in a Bonanza? This is hardly a training plane...retractable gear, over 200HP....

The CFI who signed this student pilot off for this aircraft is probably undergoing a anal exam by the FAA right now...

As a student pilot, doing real well in 152s and Beech Skippers, my instructor let me fly the approach in a Bonanza he was renting for the weekend. I went so wide on the turn to final we would have flown past a parallel runway. Like the plane was always a half mile ahead of where I thought it was. Did better on the go-round.
