Bombardier BD700 Global Express

This is the Bombardier BD700 Global Express by 'riviere'.

The Bombardier Global Express is a large cabin, ultra long range business jet manufactured by Bombardier Aerospace in Montreal, Canada. There are currently five variants, the original Global Express, Global 5000, Global 6000, Global 7000 & Global 8000. The Global Express has been modified for military missions, such as the Raytheon Sentinel and the USAF E-11A. The Global Express can fly intercontinental ranges without refueling (e.g. New York–Tokyo) or between most two points in the world with only one stop. In this class the Global Express competes with the Airbus Corporate Jet, Boeing Business Jet and Gulfstream G550.

This aircraft has many nice liveries, and it is possible to open the door. The passenger cabin is very nicely rendered, which is a very nice touch. This aircraft can fly for 11 hours on a full tank of fuel.

FlyJSim Dash 8-Q400

This aircraft is a fun turboprop to fly, but is for the experienced pilot. Crosswind landings a quite tricky, but on a calm day this aircraft is fun to fly. It comes with a highly detailed manual and loads of liveries.

The Dash 8-Q400 is a stretched and improved 70–78 passenger version that entered service in 2000. Its 360 knot (667 km/h) cruise speed is 60–90 knots (111–166 km/h) higher than its competitors/predecessors. Powered by PW150A engines rated at 5,071 shp (3,781 kW) at maximum power (4,850 shp or 3,620 kW maximum continuous rated). The maximum operating altitude is 25,000 ft (7,600 m) for the standard version, although a version with drop-down oxygen masks is offered, which increases maximum operating altitude to 27,000 ft (8,200 m). All Q400s include the ANVS system.
