Beechcraft Bonanza V35

I have stuffed as much kit into this plane as physically possible, including VOR, simple mode c transponder, altitude derived from barometric pressure (allowing for QNH/QFE settings) and all the important dials you would need for limited IFR operations. Minus the ILS. For now.

Unfortunately, that means there is only room for the front two seats. However, due to the use of handles, both the pilot and copilot have full control of the airplane in flight. This also means your view out of the windshield is a little low, but once you're stabilized for landing just look at the point where the window meets the roof for a slightly better view out. Also best to have a high FOV so you can still slightly see the instruments.
BEWARE: When you exit either seat, it is best to look towards the center of the plane and hop as much as you can. This should make it a little less.. clippy. Downside of 1:1 construction.

On the pilot's side, there is an instrument block to the left of the yoke showing the current positions of flaps and gear. Above that is the handbrake. Hold the toe brakes (space) and tap the handbrake button to enable. To disable, just tap the brakes once or tap the button.

• Indicated Airspeed (knots)
  
• Turn Coordinator, is a combination of a turn indicator (horizontal bars) and a slip/skid indicator (vertical bar). Higher framerate is better for these combined dials.
  
• Attitude Direction Indicator (artificial horizon), imagine drawing a line directly between the two tips of the needles. That is your horizon.
  
• Radio-Magnetic Indicator (compass/VOR), combines the compass and the VOR output (explained later) into one instrument. The more solid needle points towards north, the "ghost" needle points towards the tuned VOR beacon.
  
• Barometric Altitude, uses pressure readings from the barometer component as well as a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ of hard coded data to calculate your altitude (feet).
  
• Vertical Speed, shows you your vertical speed in feet per minute (display x1000), derived from barometric altitude.
  
  
• The rest are engine instruments, self explanatory.

• COMM: Input the desired radio frequency into the co-pilot's side keypad input A. Then, press and quickly release the Tune COMM / SQUAWK button on the radio panel.
  
• Transponder: Input the squawk code, either 1200/7000 for VFR or the code ATC will give you. Then, press and hold the Tune COMM / SQUAWK button for a full second. This will input the squawk code into the system. Inputting 0 for your squawk code will disable the transponder.
  
• QNH / QFE: Use either the standard mean sea level pressure of 29.92, or ask ATC for the pressure at runway level (in inches of mercury). Input this value into the co-pilot's side keypad input B. This will recalibrate the altimeter to read 0 at the inputted pressure. Useful for IFR flight and approach.
  
• VOR: Input the VOR beacon's frequency into the co-pilot's side keypad input A (in megahertz), then press and quickly release the Tune / Disable VOR button. This will input the VOR's frequency into the system. Holding the Tune / Disable VOR button for over one second will disable the VOR indication on the Radio-magnetic Indicator.

Upon detection by any radar, the transponder will send out a signal on 1090MHz (channel 1090000000) containing the aircraft's squawk code in channel one and the indicated barometric altitude (feet, 100 foot increments) in channel two.
There is a delay of approx 4 ticks between the radar's detection and the receiving of the aircraft's signal, important to keep in mind if you design your own secondary ATC radar.

If you don't want to have to design your own, here's a Harrison AB ATC Tower

VOR ground beacons are included in this vehicle playlist. If you want their frequency displayed on the map, enable the playlist when creating a new world. The description of those playlists will tell you how they work, and how to make your own.
