Any Biz Jets in Development?

I recall hearing about a firm NO from Aerobask long ago as far as MSFS unfortunately… :disappointed_relieved:

Well maybe if Asobo ups their game with MS24 by fixing all the issues that bug the purists, they may change their mind eventually.

Funny as I’ve been watching that JimmysWorld Youtube series on Elvis’s old jet, and never imagined we’d get one for MSFS.
Instabuy for me…:beers:

well Aerobask develops on Linux. so when Asobo releases their SDK on Linux there is a good chance !

I doubt thats ever gonna happen unfortunately. Too bad, Aerobask’s plane are amazing.

Thanks! Going from “small” radials to a Jet is a big move, and a crazy amount of work, but we’ll get there!

well right now there is the longtude and hondajet. CJ4 is for everyone not only premium deluxe. so there are a few

I’ve been waiting for years for Aerobask Dassault Falcon 8X in XP, but the project looks like going nowhere. I don’t expect them into the MSFS market any time soon. It’s THE biz jet i’m waiting for in any sim, but it’s probably not going to happen.

yeah we all wait for the dassault. but developing without any income is difficult, so they have to work on other aircraft to generate revenue.
fly the hotstart challenger 650 instead.

The thing with these modern biz jets is the avionics are very complicated and require development from the ground up. The Honeywell Planeview in the Gulfstreams and Proline Fusion in the Global 5000/6000/7500 are nothing like the systems we have today so even if someone is to tackle one of these models, the chances of in-depth systems/avionics is just not there. Maybe if someone ever does a proper A220, we would have a base for the Fusion platform on the Global.

Over on XP12 there is a pretty decent G550, visually it doesn’t look the best but the systems are alot more developed that I would have expected from a independent developer. But i’ll keep my fingers crossed we get something in MSFS!!

With the work WT is doing with the Garmin platform i think its likely we see more biz jets that use this. I know of a Sovereign+, Citation X+ in the works as well as an Excel/XLS. A Latitude wouldn’t be a far fetch either since its using same flight deck as the C700.

I got to ride along in a Global 7500 yesterday and I kept thinking how awesome it would be in the sim!

Note that many Bizjet manufacturers won’t allow their planes to be modelled in a sim, i.e. Gulfstream.

HotStart! THAT would be amazing.

I keep X-Plane 12 on my PC for the Challenger 650 exclusively. For those that aren’t familiar, the systems depth is stunning. Overall, the build-out is unreal.

This one has been out since september last year… GLF550 v2 - Ultimate Business Jet by AKD Studio-AKD-G550

Where can I find about the Excel?

I’ve seen this said a few times, any idea why this is the case?

Not much into out there. The person developing it has posted some images of it and the Sovereign in the screenshots/general channels on Cockspurs discord (The project is not part of cockspur). Here are the images they posted but its been while since any updates on either.
