Quotes from the developer

• "we are anticipating a release at the end of the year. Price unknown. Will be available on Marketplace, for both XBox and PC."
   
• "We realize the phrase 'study level' has become a bit of a cliche, but that is the goal."
   
• "you will get as close to a study level aircraft with the full G3000 suite. Livery still up in the air....."
   
• "..unencrypted paint kits ... Its on the roadmap."
   
• "We are in close contact with Working Title and will be creating custom G2 specific pages for the G3000. So no, it is not the MSFS default. That said, Im the dev that heads up the 3d side of things (modeling, animation, shaders etc) and not directly responsible for the avionics so my knowledge of that is incomplete. Do check the Working Title discord for their release notes, they have some interesting developments in the pipe."
   
• "And hey, if you want to support the team making this... Go and buy Chicago Executive Airport! links to Contrail, Flightsim.com and Orbyx are on our flightFX.com site. Its a fantastic, meticulously crafted airport."

I thought it was released, when I saw the thread title.  So ugh!! Homework photos!

I have talked to a VisionJet pilot.  It was interesting.  Have never been up in one like you though.

Seems like people who own them love them.  A few tend to upgrade to a citation every now and then.  I think it's a neat little personal jet to do short trips if you had a business etc.  As far as longer travel, it's pretty slow I'd say hehe.  I think the TBM930 is about the same speed.  Not sure how the range compares.

They are basically step-up airplanes from the SR-2x's. Unfortunately only really 'loveable' with a short mission or nobody riding in the back. Take a look at the full fuel payload (!). Leaving gas behind to take people, the range gets lousy, and don't even think about coupling that with a high/hot scenario. You also have to get a full type rating in Knoxville. Bottom line most of the SETP's / KA's/ CJ's own it on every metric without 2 weeks in TN... and they have beta reverse which is nice.

 

I think the G2 does a lot better with high/hot.  The G1 which I flew isn't nearly as good.  Although I thought it was awesome cause it's the only turbine stick time I've got haha

 

How are we doing with the Vision Jet? 

The G2+ is the latest rev.  Would luv to do the autoland and parachute deploy in MSFS.

All of my bizjet dreams are coming true with MSFS!

Cirrus Vision Jet

Hondajet

Someone tell Flysimware, Lionheart and Aerobask to bring that Learjet 35A, Epic Victory and Phenom Jet to MSFS already!

Been waiting for a single pilot jet for 18 months now... well a very high quality one I should say 🤪

The way it's looking the Hondajet will be the first to reach our hands maybe.

As for Flysimware, Aerobask and Lionheart Creations I have no idea if they would ever tackle MSFS versions of those bizjets.

I'm sure Carenado will atleast release a MSFS version Phenom one day!

One can dream I guess....🤣

Aerobask & Lion are no A2A though.

Would love to see Scott tackle a SP jet, or Flight1 or PMDG of course!

The Phenom 100 was available for a day or so at flightsim.to.  I missed it but a good search found a download site a few days later.  Flies pretty good and looks great in MSFS.  I also would like to see these small jets flying in MSFS.  I spent an hour drooling over the G2+ and Arrivee brochures.

I grabbed it also and I don't feel bad about using it as I've purchased Carenado's entire small jet catalogue for FSX.

The Phenom actually flies and performs surprisingly well for an FSX/P3D convert. I wish I knew how to convert myself I would do all of the bizjets I own for FSX/P3D.

For "personal use only" of course😉🤣
