Anyone know of a (preferably freeware) Learjet 31 or 35a with transparent windows that will work with Fs2004/Fs9?...If not, how about some small twin jet of the same size?..Got a Citation II(550), Elcipse 500 and Chuck dome's Bj400....

I'm not sure what you are specifically looking for.. but if you would like a highly realistic and very smooth glass cockpit in a small business jet, here is how you do it:Adding Reality XP Jetline 4 gauges to the FS9 Learjet 45 gives you a really nice airplane. The glass gauges will automatically install into the default Learjet when you install the gauge package.www.reality-xp.com

Curious whether you have my Eclipse 500... (The one from Dave Eckert that I updated). It's here in the Avsim Library--look under author "John Cillis". As for a Lear 35, as I just noted in a response to another thread, FlightFX released one a couple of years ago. Do a search for that one, and you should find a nice model.Last, Mark Dickenson and I worked on an Aerostar Jet together (not to be confused with Mike Stone's recent release). It's also here in the file library.-John

Thanks for your replies...Sorry forgot to metion that I do have the Fj100 as well..Yes the Elcipse and Aerostar are your ones...What I wanted, was a twin jet with 2 crew + 6-8seat capacity along the lines of the Learjet 35. I Know there is a Learjet 35 available that is compatible with Fs9, but it doesn't have transparant windows...The models you have created are really brilliant, but I just simply like the looks of the real world Learjet 35 and the Raytheon Bj400 better than the other A/c in this size range....No reflection on your work just a matter of taste...Chuck Dome has an excellent Bj400 availlable, but his way of mapping the skin textures make them extremely difficult to do a detailed repaint on....Anyway thanks for replying....

Don't know of any offhand. I fly the 31a a lot, but mine does not have the transparent windows. No VC either....It does fly good though...I've tweaked the air file, etc , a bit...I also have a 31a panel I've been using for it, that was taken from a real 31a pix.I used to fly the 35 quite a bit, but not much lately. The package that I got my current 31a from, also includes the 35,23 and 25. That will probably clue you into which package I'm using. I used to use the "rouge" 31a for the older version, but I think it must have had a problem running in fs9, being as I'm not using it now. I think it did have transparent windows...MK

Funny,I posted the same type of message just a day or two ago on FS.com about a Lear 23 which is virtually non-existent in the FS World. I have access to one through our Aviation Museum for photographing,measurements whatever,I'd hope maybe someone like Eagle Soft would be interested seeing how Biz Jets seems to be their thing.David

I may do a new LearJet family someday to replace the crappy old FFX models, since they're so simple, but meh. Got too much to do as-is.

hi john, i got your eclipse 500 and have to say it's super! one thing though is i keep getting an overweight message in the fuel/payload section when i'm not overloaded. am i missing something? thanks, william
