This aircraft is just unbelievable.
After a few training flights to get used to its challenging behaviour, I set the bird to a used status and now I’m a proud owner of a “real” V-Tail. I fly it by the book, have it inspected every 20 flight hours, and it is amazing how the Bonanza is changing over time. (Which of course depends how I treat it.) I only repair stuff after a certain while (leave it yellow) in order to save imaginary costs. With the gauges, for example, I write down how they are behaving (reading too high/low) and take this into consideration while flying rather than “buying” a new gauge straight away.
There was a capital failure once when one of the cylinders broke. The engine continued working, though, there was just a lot of spatter and a drop of power. I installed a new cylinder once back in the garage. In the end it was my fault anyway, since I had to get used to the fact that “actions have consequences”, plus I should have realized it much earlier if I had watched the gauges more closely.

The A2A Comanche is an aircraft to really own as well, but the Bonanza goes a step further.

Accu-sim adds a whole new level of reality to a flight simulation. (READ THE MANUAL, it’s a great read!)

What I wish for is a cost management, however. With real costs for the work and parts, and a budget that is set by the owner, to make it even more challenging. (Having this in an update for all the Accu-sim aircraft would be nice.)
And talking about wishes: I really would like to see gift vouchers in the store. Like 10, 20 or 40 Dollar shopping vouchers.

All in all there is nothing like Accu-sim. And nothing like the Bonanza. I’m so looking forward to A2As next strike!

I held off for a long time but finally gave in and purchased the A2A Bonanza. After all, I’d already got a perfectly nice V35 from another developer, but A2A were having a sale so I thought I’d give it a try. I already owned most of A2A’s stuff and have found them to be excellent. But the A2A Bonanza is in a league of its own. The exterior and interior are of fantastically high quality, and the Accusim makes it come to life, but it’s the fluid feeling of flight that I feel while flying the A2A Bonanza that has made it my favourite aircraft in P3D. So much so that (almost annoyingly!) I really don’t feel like flying of my other 200+ aircraft now. If you’re wondering whether to get it, don’t delay like I did: just get it now!

By far my favorite A2A aircraft. Love every second of flying it.

About a year ago a friend took me up in his real Bonanza – I had never been in a GA before and I was hooked. I’ve been flying simulators since the very first Microsoft sim came out on a 5 1/4 floppy ( I’m dating myself). I also use the other major flight sim and I wish P3D had a simpler/cleaner updater and a more unified/cohesive product installation and update. A2A is the primary reason I use P3D. There is in my view only one other commercial aircraft that keeps me in the P3D arena (high wing 2 engine, great sound).

After experiencing a real flight, I had to buy the V tail. I am so impressed – not only with the product itself but the behind-the-scenes installer/updater and the fact the company is always improving its product. I also recently purchased the Comanche…Flight Sim will be as close as I will get to flying the real thing.

If you purchase this aircraft you will not be disappointed – it is fantastic in every respect. Congratulations on an amazing product.

I’m not normally a flyer of single pistons in P3D. That has now changed! Amazing A2A – thank you.

Now I have a problem I love a2a Warbirds but now I can`t stop flying Bonanza.
The best GA I’ve ever flown.
