Black Square's Bonanza Professional brings you one of the most technically advanced aircraft simulations for Microsoft Flight Simulator, with an advanced reciprocating engine simulation, 110+ possible failures, 12 hot-swappable radio configurations, and the most advanced turbocharger, and cabin temperature simulations in MSFS.

Black Square's new tablet interface lets you configure all options, manage payload, control failures, and monitor engines, electrical schematics, and environmental control systems, all from within the simulator. The failure system allows for persistent wear, MTBF, and scheduled failures for nearly every component in the aircraft. The 3D gauges are affected by physics, and can even become stuck without engine vibration, requiring a tap on the glass to free them.

Radionavigation systems are available from several eras of the A36's history. Fly without GPS via a Bendix KNS-81 RNAV system, or with the convenience of a Garmin GTN 750/650 (PMS50 or TDS). Other radio equipment includes KX-155 radios, KLN-90B, GNS 530/430, KFC 150 Autopilot, and an RDR1150XL Weather Radar.n

A 200+ page manual provides instruction on all equipment, and 40 in-game checklists with control highlighting are included for normal and emergency procedures. This product includes three airframes: the A36 of the mid-2000's, the 2001 A36TC with an aftermarket turbonormalizing package, and the B36TP turboprop conversion.

Six distinctive interiors and nine paint schemes are included from five decades of flying.

Checklists

Over 400 checklist items are provided for 40+ Normal, Abnormal, and Emergency procedures in textual form in the manual, and in-game, using the MSFS native checklist system with control and instrument highlighting. If it’s in the checklist, it’s settable in the aircraft!

Sounds

Black Square’s Bonanza Professional features a custom sound set created by Boris Audio Works, recorded from the real aircraft. High quality engine and cockpit sounds will immerse you in the simulation. Sounds such as engine starting are not mere recordings, but instead many layered sounds, constructed based on the underlying simulation.

Flight Dynamics

The Bonanza Professional features a flight model with performance to match the real-world aircraft based on real Bonanza owner feedback and in-flight data. Engine and aerodynamic performance should be within 2% of POH values, though no two engines are ever the same. The flight model uses the most up to date features available in MSFS 2020 and MSFS 2024, such as the new voxel CFD aerodynamics, CFD propeller, adverse yaw and stall parameters, and flexible tyre physics. Engine damage and fouling produce a rough running engine and decreased performance.
