MtnFly Simulations freeware Learjet-35A progress Update
MtnFly Simulations have been developing a freeware Learjet-25A and have recently released a substantial progress update, outlining what has to be done, what is complete and even showcasing a full flight of the aircraft on their youtube channel.
Their update log outlining what has been done is as follows:
- NAV and COM radios are fully functional and will now work with the Garmin GPS even though there is no concept of a true standby frequency in the early model 35's radios.
- The yaw damper has been modelled and is now functioning.
- The three AC to DC power inverters are now modelled and functioning.
- The FC-200 autopilot is now working as expected.
- Improvements have been made to the side audio panels.
- All four batteries are now connected to their respective power busses and function
- The captain's flight instruments are close to being fully functional.
- The emergency brake lever has been modelled and now functions.
- The cabin temperature indicator will now display a "cold-soaked" temperature on start-up. It will react to the user's set temperature setting once the engines are running and the passenger air conditioning system is turned on.
- Improvements have been made to tying electrical circuits to their respective circuit breakers.
- The RCA WXD weather radar has been modelled for those that prefer to fly "old school" without any GPS.
- Panel lighting has been added.
- Exterior Lighting has been added.
- There have been many improvements to emissive lighting throughout the aircraft.
- The wing to fuselage fairing has been added.
- There have been numerous modelling updates.
At Threshold we will keep you updated while this project progresses.
