I mainly fly the C172 classic with the N4975F replica livery but after seeing that Rober Young sharing his modification of the Bonanza G36, I couldn’t resist. In term of engine and plane management, it’s a new world for me as I have zero experience in real world. But with the included documentation and some Internet research, it seems to be easier than expected.
Nav is… straightforward. My MSFS is my training device for Foreflight on iPad (connected to MSFS). It displays MSFS Trafics 
Departing from San Gabriel El Monte (KEMT). The freeware scenery from JosueMejia is available right there.
Positive climb… Gear Up !
Climbing over the photogrametric area of Los Angeles
Performance are impressive…
… as I have some obstacles to clear
I fly with the default ATC (Azure, no mod) and in this area, climbing, you switch frequently from one SOCAL to another
Approaching Big Bear. Again, it’s the outstanding work of JosueMejia and his L35 freeware scenery is available right here.
Overfly the field, AWOS works better than ATIS in MSFS. The runway 26 is in use.
I head east to descent out of the circuit and urban area and to make a 180 to catch the final 26
It’s not the best shot to promote the Tree Fall texture enhancement (available here), you’d better look at the previous screen shots. But it displays (at the bottom right) also areas where the trees coverage is not perfect. Here is just east of L35 Big Bear.
Keep the right glide path, center line and speed
On of the backseat passenger took some pictures. All blurry !
Another day, another plane
Reaching the numbers
Runway vacated. I know the way to the Barnstorm restaurant which was the objectif of the flight by the way !
But first, at the fuel island of Big Bear. Let’s feed the plane, then the pilot…
