I’ll take the baron , I did my multi engine IR on one of those, they certainly shift.

I’d been waiting for this release for IFR work ,but as I now have the Cessna 414 which is so good I’ve sort of forgotten about it.

The one complaint I have with the 414   and a complaint I’ve had for years on many aircrafts is the rather granular movement of the RMI needles. Fly past a beacon and the needles jerk round the dial unrealistically in like 10 degree movements rather than smoothly rotating.

Are the needles on the existing black square king air nice and smooth?

The Analog King Air is not only a symphony of systems, everything works "just so". Being honest I wasn't a huge fan of Just Flight and took a chance on the Black Square releases. I can take or leave the Caravan but the King Air was worth every single penny. If these new releases are on par with it I'll be picking up both of them.

Baron will be $US32.99 .  You do need to have a minimum of Deluxe.

Black Square’s Analog Baron brings you a completely new interior, panel and systems with the default MSFS G58 Baron exterior model, including added winglets.

I get the reaction to winglets, for some it's tip tanks that spoil those classic lines. Comes down to preference I guess. I don't mind them personally.

Exactly, so as they are switchable, I cant see how it can be a problem.  Personally I love the tip-tanks version, but I will probably fly all versions and buy both packages if the cost isn't too bad. 
I hope they will offer them both as a bundle like Just Flight have done in the past, at a slightly reduced cost.

I like to trick airline passengers into thinking I have my own swimming pool in my back yard by painting a large blue rectangle on my patio.

Thank goodness you get a winglet-less version. On an otherwise handsome aeroplane, they look bloody awful.

No way they look amazing.  A baron with winglets is almost as beautiful as a Duke with winglets!

Haha grammar isn't my forte.  I disagree with you!  They look so sexy.  All planes deserve winglets!

I like Barons, but it's hard to imagine a better light twin in the sim than the 310... Looking forward to seeing what these guys do though.  Now the Bonanza... That I might need, especially if it's got a good panel for some good old slant alpha IFR work.

Just occurred to me that I already have an analog gauge Bonanza in my hangar... the V35. 😉

With tear and wear, engine damage, and working circuit brakers ? 😉
