At Simcoders, we’re excited to announce our newest Reality Expansion Pack (REP) for X-Plane 12: the Beechcraft Bonanza G36, developed with PAE. Building on our experience with the Carenado F33 and V35, we’re leveraging our Bonanza expertise to create the most advanced G36 simulation yet.
The Beechcraft Bonanza G36: A Timeless Aircraft
The Beechcraft Bonanza G36 is a sleek, high-performance six-seater powered by the IO-550B engine and equipped with the Garmin G1000 avionics suite. It’s perfect for both private and professional pilots.
PAE’s X-Plane 12 rendition captures the aircraft’s polished exterior and immersive cockpit with incredible attention to detail.
