Wishful Thinking for More Business Jets

[The Flight Level 2,113]

For those that missed this on another thread. Two Tone Murphy talks with the developer of the HJet here and gives some great close up views: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1308845640

I'm still confused as to what "updates" to the G3000 the Hjet offers. 

For one thing, heavily modified visuals. Marwan coded it to include the synoptics that's on its IRL counterpart. In addition. he successfully implemented working VNAV, complete with a VSD display (really, a very neat feature). He also integrated it completely into the plane so you don't also need to have the G3000 mod. In fact, it was recently tested on the XBox with great success, so for XBox fliers, this is a big deal as it will mark the first time XBox users will have a plane with WTT *and* Navigraph!

Beyond that, yes, the navigation part is still WTT, but once Working Title is done with the refresh, I'm pretty sure Marwan will look into swapping out the systems, but it might mean re-building his synoptics and VSD from scratch (WTT G3000 completion currently projected for end of the year...at best).

Yeah that's about it.  FSW did a decent older Lear 35.  I think they even recently added a basic FMS sort of unit (UNS) to the P3D version.  xtreme prototypes did a lear 25 with a similar fashion.

Probably the most complex in any sim to date is the Hot Start Challenger in XP11 - which came out fairly recently.

That Lear 25 was a hoot. The only way to make it more 70's would have been to have a razor blade and a pile of white powder on the cabin table. 😉

LOL!  That was slightly before my time thankfully 😂

Just bumping this topic back up for more consideration it so richly deserves......😁

I took my fenix before bed last night and this is what I saw in my sim dreams

Runway performance of a VLJ!

@irocx Yep, with all the crappy news in the world recently, nice to read about and see this sweet performance leader getting lots of air time in the media. No pun intended!

Yes, anyone of these would do.

Time to bump this message thread. With the release of SU10 and the removal of encryption, I'm hoping at the very least, additional improvement mods for the Longitude.

IRIS has done a Global Express in the past. They only did the external model and released it unfinished as freeware...

Edit: about 10 years ago... i'm getting old 😟...

Clearly you have not being paying attention to Working Title, coming "Soon" is a complete re-write of the CJ4 and, more to the point a rewritten G3000 complete with Longitude specific pages AND (to my understanding) updates to the Longitude itself - looks very good....

I would even settle for this in the sim without a spanky livery!

Billed as the first business jet to go supersonic with SAF (sustainable aviation fuel).

Go to about 8:30 of this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d0TB86nXI68

 

And the most depressing news was at 13:00.....I just KNEW when I bought my Global 7000 and the salesman tried to get me to wait and buy a 7500 I shoulda' listened to him!  Now I can't upgrade to an 8000. 😞

Anyone in the market for a poultry used Global 7000?  Only has 2 miles on it (I had it towed 2 miles from the ramp by the FBO to my remote hangar at the end of the airport as I can't afford to put fuel in it to fly it 😭, its pretty to look at though.  I did put enough fuel in it once to fire up the APU and look at all the pretty lights in the cockpit though)

A poultry used Global 7000? Did you intend to transport chickens with it? I know chicken can't fly by themselves, but still... 😄

Thanks. But I'm not seeing anything on the Longitude. There's one for the CJ4 but not for the Longitude. Is that the correct link?

Very exciting times for bizjet simmers....

Learjet 35A

Citation Mustang

Hawker 800XP

HJet

Cirrus Jet

A good Phenom 100/300, 390 Premiere and I'm pretty much a happy camper.

If LHC does the Epic Victory Jet that would be great also!

The Cessna Citation Mustang is days away from release:

C510 Mustang Release on Sept 30, a few days from now.

https://cockspur.eu/

I had the Flight1 version of this jet in FSX and P3D I believe. The Cockspur version will have the G1000, and I believe they support the G1000Nxi.

This plane is great for both small and large airports.

Really looking forward to it!

Learjet 35A

I like Flysimware's Learjet 35A a lot. Their Learjet is tempting me to 'upgrade' to another dev's Learjet, Xtreme Prototypes' Learjet 25 (XP GLJ Model 25 SE v3.0 | Xtreme Prototypes), which based in my reading their  300+ page manual is a step up compared to features described in Flysimware's 40+ page manual for the 35A. The XP 25 looks like a must-have if you're a Learjet fan.

The problem is XP's model is only available for P3D and it's not cheap. If it ever goes on sale or if the bizjets to be released in MSFS disappoints, I'll probably just end up grabbing it anyway.
