Virtavia B-36H Peacemaker for MSFS 2020
Convair's B-36 Peacemaker was called a 'Megabomber' when it was first introduced into service on August 28, 1947. An enormous aircraft, it was as complex as it was large. Its 28-cylinder R-4360 engines were the very height of piston technology, and with the addition of the jet pods to later marques to assist with takeoff and top speed, the aircraft became even more complicated.

Virtavia B-36H Peacemaker for MSFS 2020
Convair's B-36 Peacemaker was called a 'Megabomber' when it was first introduced into service on August 28, 1947. An enormous aircraft, it was as complex as it was large. Its 28-cylinder R-4360 engines were the very height of piston technology, and with the addition of the jet pods to later marques to assist with takeoff and top speed, the aircraft became even more complicated. With its 19-foot propellers and six engines, it produced an Earth-shaking drone that could be felt from 40,000 feet. Produced in a wide variety of variants, including unarmed crew trainers, strategic bombers, and reconnaissance bombers, the type was manufactured for seven years. The last B-36 was delivered on August 18, 1954, and the 'Big Stick' was retired altogether on February 12, 1959.

Baron Professional
Black Square’s Baron Professional brings you one of the most technically advanced aircraft simulations for Microsoft Flight Simulator, with an advanced reciprocating engine simulation, 100+ possible failures, 12 hot-swappable radio configurations, and the most advanced turbocharger, pressurisation and cabin temperature simulations in MSFS.

Black Square’s Baron Professional brings you one of the most technically advanced aircraft simulations for Microsoft Flight Simulator, with an advanced reciprocating engine simulation, 100+ possible failures, 12 hot-swappable radio configurations, and the most advanced turbocharger, pressurisation 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.
Radio navigation systems are available from several eras of the B58’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. A 165+ page manual provides instruction on all equipment and 45 in-game checklists with control highlighting are included for normal and emergency procedures.
This product includes three airframes: the normally aspirated B58 of the mid-2000s, the 1984 B58TC and the pressurised 1985 B58P. Six distinctive interiors and six paint schemes are included from five decades of flying.
Analog Baron Owners: While the panel of the Baron Professional might look familiar, almost all other aspects of the aircraft have been rebuilt with Black Square’s current technology and high standards of quality. The major additions include a custom exterior model, custom sound package from Boris Audio Works, higher quality materials with modifications for each model of aircraft, fine-tuned performance tables, tablet visualisers with all the systems required to drive them, more avionics options and the reciprocating engine simulation that debuted with the Piston Duke. This expansion of the Analog Baron represents 1,000+ hours of dedication, and roughly a doubling of the aircraft’s code complexity. Once you experience Black Square’s latest technology in your favourite B58, the difference will be clear!
Primarily analogue instrumentation augmented with modern avionics is still the most common aircraft panel configuration in the world. Challenge your piloting skills by flying IFR to minimums with a fully analogue panel and no GPS. You’ll be amazed at the level of skill and proficiency you can achieve to conquer such adversity, and how it will translate to all your other flying.
For more information on the aircraft's capabilities and a list of all included avionics and equipment, see the Detailed Description below and the extensive PDF Operating Manual (printer-friendly version).
For an illustrated guide to all major improvements since the Analog Baron’s original release, see this Summary PDF.
What’s new since the Analog Baron?
Every feature listed below with NEW or IMPROVED has been added or significantly improved since the Analog Baron was released, but there is even more to discover!
Feature Overview
-
IMPROVED 165+ page manual with your complete guide to flying the Black Square Baron, including systems guide, tutorials, limitations, performance tables and electrical schematics.
- NEW Three aircraft in one: Normally Aspirated B58, Turbocharged B58TC and Pressurized B58P.
- NEW TABLET INTERFACE! for configuring options, payload settings, failure management, and real time visualisers for engines, electrical schematics and environmental systems.
- NEW physics-based engine simulation with compression, magneto impulse couplings, blade angle, oil temperature and pressure, cylinder head temperatures, and preheating.
- IMPROVED Fuel injected engine simulation with fouling, vapour-lock, flooding and backfires; even the magneto impulse couplings are simulated and have sound.

- IMPROVED 100+ Random, scheduled or performance-triggered failures, settable via the tablet, including engine damage, compatible with third party UIs and instructor stations.
- IMPROVED Fully simulated environmental control and pressurisation system for heating, air conditioning, ventilation, ram air cooling. Cool things off by opening a door, or watch the aircraft heat up in the sun. Monitor via the new tablet interface.
- NEW physics-based sound system. Sounds like engine starting are not mere recordings, but instead many layered sounds, constructed based on the underlying simulation.
- NEW propeller hub and unfeathering accumulator, with feather locking pins.
- NEW engine preheating required for cold starts, with heater and ground power cart.
- NEW voltage-based light dimming, an immediately recognisable effect to night-time pilots.
- NEW gyroscope physics simulation for electric and pneumatic gyroscopes with precession and partial failures, based on a coupled quadrature oscillator.
- NEW Magnetic compass effects, including fields from onboard circuits.

- Carbon Monoxide leaks are possible, and can be detected with the CO detector.
- State saving for fuel, radio selection, radio frequency memory, cabin aesthetics etc.
- Crew/Passenger oxygen depletes according to pressure altitude, passenger occupancy.
- Ultra-custom dynamic registration number system for livery creators.
Checklists
Over 500 checklist items are provided for 45+ 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 Baron 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 Baron Professional features a flight model with performance to match the real-world aircraft based on real Baron 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.
Paint Schemes
The Black Square Baron Professional comes with six paint schemes. The Baron Professional also comes with six interior upholstery packages that represent the aircraft through decades of service. This product makes use of Black Square’s highly customisable dynamic tail number system, which can be configured by livery makers. See the 'Custom Dynamic Tail Numbers' section of the manual for more information.
