The Beechcraft 35B Bonanza is one of the most unique private aircraft in the world. The unique V-tail is its most noticeable feature, giving it a distinct look and lower drag than other private aircraft of the same size. With good range and the ability to haul four or six passengers, it has been a staple in the Beech hangar for many years. Now you have the opportunity to add this high fidelity FS X/DX10 model to your virtual hangar!
The Bonanza was first introduced in 1947,has been in continuous production longer than any other airplane in history. More than 17,000 Bonanzas of all variants have been built. The model 35 Bonanza was the first truly modern high-performance personal aircraft. The general configuration of the Model 35 has remained virtually unchanged throughout the aircraft's history. A cantilever low-wing monoplane of all-metal construction, including the distinctive tail unit, the Model 35 has an enclosed cabin providing seating for a pilot and three or four passengers. An optional feature on the airplane throughout the years has been a landing gear safety system of Beech design.

Recommended System Specifications
While cutting edge add-on aircraft such as this will "run" on a system with the minimum specifications outlined by Microsoft, we recommend the following as minimum guidelines to achieve acceptable performance:
- Pentium IV or AMD microprocessor or higher with 2.5 GHz+ speed and 2 GB RAM minimum for all FS X flights
- Intel or AMD dual or quad core processors, 2 GB+ each recommended for all FS X flights
- Microsoft Flight Simulator X SP2
- Windows XP, Windows Vista or Windows 7 32 or 64 bit
- Nvidia or ATI Radeon based 3D accelerator video card with full antialiasing and T&L lighting capability and a minimum of 512 MB onboard RAM
- SoundBlaster Live or equivalent 128-bit DirectX sound device
- Up-to-date DirectX video and sound drivers
Obviously, higher end systems with multi-core and/or 3.0 GHz+ speed CPU, 3+ GB system RAM and high end video card will perform better. |
