I saw a cool jet fly overhead yesterday

[deadnight]

I'm not sure what it was.. but it was a jet that looked about the size of a cessna caravan. Well, smaller than a Learjet 45 anyways. I can't really give much of a description of it except that it was painted mostly white with blue stripes down the sides I think. The wings looked kind of folded back like a 'V'.
Any idea of what it could have been?

Cessna cytation?, Probably was that

Well, a Citation is bigger than a Caravan and smaller than a Lear 45.  Possibly an Eclipse 500?

May have been one of those beech starships.i saw one fly over here, looked cool flying over head.as they do have a prop and i think a jet model.

Actually the Starship is turbo-prop only, there is a similar looking airplane called the Piaggo Avanti that looks a lot like the Starship.

Yes the jet model looks like a starship,but i wasnt shure of the name of it though. i thought it was the same as the beech just diffrent setup,

Piaggio makes the Avanti (Seriously,Piaggio is the company.

and if it's smaller than a Lear 45 and had sweptback wings, perhaps it was a Falcon 10.  ::)

I just had a look at the Cessna Citation on their website. It did look quite a bit like that. Might have been it. Anybody know of an aircraft addon of this jet for fs2004? It looks like it would be fun to fly.  ;D

Welp, ya gotta lotta choices there. There's the early Citations 500-550, the 3&7, the Excel, the CJ, the CJII, the Mustang, and the Mack Daddy..... the Citation 10. And there's a few oddballs in the Citation line I missed, but there all very different. The 500 and 550 barely break 360IAS at altitude, and the 10, went over Mach 1  :o  during testing, and is rated for .96 normal!  ;)

It's also a Turbo Prop.
