They DO speak for themselves and they are yelling "I'M AWESOME! ! !"

Beautifull shots!

[ATI_7500]

they look damn good. well done!

[GeForce]

What? Oh yeah, I forgot FS9 actually came with default planes...

I should fly them more

Well done

[RollerBall]

Thanks guys

I didn't like the 2002 Learjet but this is something different. It's a nice plane to move up to for people making the transition from GA/VFR flying to heavy/IFR

It looks good and has quite a nice flying model as well, although its acceleration after takeoff is a tad unrealistic I would think. Before you know it you're climbing at 1800/2000 fpm way in excess of the low altitude limit even before you can get the autothrottle switched in.

But all round,  it has to be one of the best FS default aircraft.

PS

What do other people think of the new GPS? I reckon it's a real waste of space - literally. Most of it consists of grey 'plastic' and as a result the screen is so small the information on it is unreadable and it has to be expanded to cover half the panel over the other instruments to make it usable. And I haven't found a way yet of getting route ETA, only ETA next waypoint. Grrrrrr!

Yep, I know what you mean. I still haven't figured out how to use it to its full extent.

Nice shots RollerBall, #1 is my favorite!

The only thing I hate about the Learjet are those terrible droning engines! The first thing I do when installing FS is to Alias the sound to the Boeing 737! Otherwise I love it!

(Incidently the next time I install FS will be on my Uber-PC when it arrives in January ) - The downside is no FS or anything for a month!  :(

Sorry - Nice pics Rollerball!

I totally agree with the GPS....... I don't really know how to use all these fangled nav aids or whatever, I just use it to get to the nearest Airbase when I decide its time to land. Powering away at full speed in an F-104 for 10 minutes can leave you alittle bit lost and ussualy I have to make it full screen to see anything! Thats if you can re-size it 'cause thats pretty difficult to do itself!

Thanks everyone

rollerball,

the climb you mentioned isn't unrealistic. i've been on lear 31's and 45's.  they can hit 10,000 in something like 1 min. 46 secs. and the engines really have that annoying high pitch drone.  
some of the pilots at the cargo op at the end of my field will take thier lear 25's all the way to the end of a 6250 ft runway and pull up at 70 degree angles

[RollerBall]

Thanks for that ruekesj. Interesting about the climb rate. Quite a little hot racer on the quiet eh?

Like your story. Pilots can be SUCH children can't they
