Gulfstream G550 for FSX

Featured Replies

This ultra-long range luxurious business jet should be one of the prime payware aircraft addons that Eaglesoft Development Group or any other accomplished Addons developer company should seriously consider bringing to the market for the FSX. I so wanted one for the FS9 but no payware found except for X-plane. Hopefully there will be for FSX.dito

That'd be awesome but I have a nagging feeling that even FSX won't be able to support the major features of the G550's avionics (is it the Honeywell Epic or is that the one Dassault uses? I dunno).

So perhaps I ought to keep my knees bent and refuse to lose hope.By the way, is there a complicated and perhaps expensive process in requesting their permission?Dito

No, no expensive or complicated process.My understanding is that Gulfstream simply does NOT give permission to do them. It's really very simple if you think about it."Can we?""Absolutely not."Couldn't be simpler :D

Jan, you are correct at this point in time. We are investigating some things however. No more until we have more:-)

I do not remember the particular website. However the aircraft was nicely done in and out!So I wonder how they 've gotten permission to to that.Could it be that they changed their policy now? Persistence...pays.

Several folks have been badly burned by the Gulfstream legal department in years past...
