When we tested Black Square's Analog Baron - Steam Gauge Overhaul add-on for MSFS we were amazed at the level of realism and systems fidelity which it provided, all the way from the cockpit systems and advanced failure mode to the numerous visual upgrades, custom sounds and upgraded instrumentation - it really is a remarkable upgrade to the aircraft.

We're pleased to see that PC Pilot magazine's reviewer was in full agreement in the new issue (No. 147, Sept/Oct 2023), giving this new add-on a Platinum Award and an impressive score of 96/100:

"The level of interior and systems modelling is made to an excellent standard and, combined with a detailed failure model, it easily rivals the most complex aircraft currently available for the Microsoft Flight Simulator platform. If you want to get as close as you can to flying a piston twin on your desktop, this one is for you."

"Black Square's Analog Baron is an innovative package that captures the challenges of flying  piston twins perfectly. The combination of sound systems modelling and authentic flight dynamics makes it one of the more comprehensive renditions of a general aviation aircraft for Microsoft Flight Simulator currently available."

Take a look at the Analog Baron page for all the aircraft details and some videos, and you'll find the details of the new issue of PC Pilot on their website.
