If only I could fit lumber into a Beech Sundowner... I'd have to
bail you out.

Who sez you can't?

I'm not intimate with the cabin of a Sundowner, but I don't think its
that much smaller than my early Bonanza. I once carried about 50 board feet
of sitka spruce (aircraft grade sitka, BTW) in it. I took out the backs of
the co-pilot and back seats in order to do it. Fortunately, none of the
pieces were longer than about 6 feet.

Worked fine, but I did have to sort of squirm around the lumber to get
in and out of the plane. Would have been real bad if I had to get out
in a hurry.
