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.\n\nRadio 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.\n\nThis 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.\n\nAnalog 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!\n\nPrimarily 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.\n\nFor 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 ).\n\nFor an illustrated guide to all major improvements since the Analog Baron’s original release, see this   Summary   PDF.\n\nWhat’s new since the Analog Baron?\n\nEvery 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!\n\nFeature Overview\n\nIMPROVED 165+ page manual   with your complete guide to flying the Black Square Baron, including systems guide, tutorials, limitations, performance tables and electrical schematics.\n\nNEW Three aircraft in one : Normally Aspirated B58, Turbocharged B58TC and Pressurized B58P.\n\nNEW TABLET INTERFACE!  for configuring options, payload settings, failure management, and real time visualisers for engines, electrical schematics and environmental systems.\n\nNEW physics-based engine simulation   with compression, magneto impulse couplings, blade angle, oil temperature and pressure, cylinder head temperatures, and preheating.\n\nIMPROVED Fuel injected engine simulation with fouling, vapour-lock, flooding and backfires ; even the magneto impulse couplings are simulated and have sound.\n\nNEW 12 hot-swappable radios , configurable via tablet interface.

If it’s in the checklist, it’s settable in the aircraft!\n\nSounds\n\nBlack 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.\n\nFlight Dynamics\n\nThe 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.\n\nPaint Schemes\n\nThe 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.", "summary": "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…", "category": { "slug": "aircraft", "name": "Aircraft" }, "developer": { "slug": "black-square", "name": "Black Square", "url": "https://fsaircraft.net/developers/black-square", "website": null }, "simulators": [ "msfs2020", "msfs2024" ], "images": [ "https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0516/3093/2133/files/thumb_cf8a8dc4-952a-4496-b14d-e5ccfafb65ff.jpg?v=1761762956", "https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0516/3093/2133/files/16_dab1cdd4-7703-42af-afb3-2195d99325d4.jpg?v=1761763050", "https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0516/3093/2133/files/2_31b5a019-07fc-4ff8-a774-107d4cf22fd5.jpg?v=1761763050", "https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0516/3093/2133/files/24_d51c983c-15e2-4dd4-a6dc-520b598da704.jpg?v=1761763050", "https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0516/3093/2133/files/1_bc46fb98-9a9e-41bd-a994-3b81cb929c9b.jpg?v=1761763050", "https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0516/3093/2133/files/3_94fed335-58d7-4e12-a798-1a1583569b34.jpg?v=1761763050", "https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0516/3093/2133/files/5_42715482-e815-4a5d-aa31-609426f0990e.jpg?v=1761763050", "https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0516/3093/2133/files/6_ae3f95a6-1900-4892-b426-a2015d54c424.jpg?v=1761763050" ], "rating": null, "released_at": "2025-10-30T03:37:34+08:00", "version": null, "first_seen_at": "2026-09-22T08:39:36.466Z", "updated_at": "2026-10-12T02:30:13.917Z", "best_offer": { "offer_id": 1253, "listing_id": 1253, "listing_slug": "contrail-black-square-baron-professional-msfs-2020-2024", "listing_title": "Baron Professional MSFS20/24", "store": { "slug": "contrail", "name": "Contrail", "url": "https://contrail.shop" }, "price": { "amount": 37.95, "currency": "EUR", "converted": { "EUR": 37.95, "USD": 42.53, "GBP": 32.17 } }, "net_price": { "amount": 37.95, "currency": "EUR", "converted": { "EUR": 37.95, "USD": 42.53, "GBP": 32.17 } }, "vat_percent": null, "tax_status": "excluded", "price_eur_net": 37.95, "reference_price": null, "discount_pct": 0, "price_low_30d": null, "sale_ends_at": null, "in_stock": true, "last_checked_at": "2026-10-12T02:30:13.917Z", "go_url": "https://fsaircraft.net/go/1253", "store_url": "https://contrail.shop/products/black-square-baron-professional-msfs-2020-2024" }, "offers": [ { "offer_id": 1253, "listing_id": 1253, "listing_slug": "contrail-black-square-baron-professional-msfs-2020-2024", "listing_title": "Baron Professional MSFS20/24", "store": { "slug": "contrail", "name": "Contrail", "url": "https://contrail.shop" }, "price": { "amount": 37.95, "currency": "EUR", "converted": { "EUR": 37.95, "USD": 42.53, "GBP": 32.17 } }, "net_price": { "amount": 37.95, "currency": "EUR", "converted": { "EUR": 37.95, "USD": 42.53, "GBP": 32.17 } }, "vat_percent": null, "tax_status": "excluded", "price_eur_net": 37.95, "reference_price": null, "discount_pct": 0, "price_low_30d": null, "sale_ends_at": null, "in_stock": true, "last_checked_at": "2026-10-12T02:30:13.917Z", "go_url": "https://fsaircraft.net/go/1253", "store_url": "https://contrail.shop/products/black-square-baron-professional-msfs-2020-2024" }, { "offer_id": 3027, "listing_id": 3027, "listing_slug": "justflight-black-square-baron-professional", "listing_title": "Black Square -
