Here is one I found a little earlier: Bombardier BD100 Challenger 300 by Richie Schwertfeger. It is available at flightsim.com at this link:
https://www.flightsim.com/files/file/148902-fsx-bombardier-challenger-300/?do=getNewComment I have a post over in the regular P3D forum about my Cessna Citation X for XOJets. I found that XOJets flies the BD100 Challenger as well among the 1400 aircraft they have available to fly charters so I searched and found this. It is FSX(A) according to Richie but I was able to take it "right out of the box" into Prepar3D V4.5\simobjects\airplanes and it works perfectly. I have not flown it BUT as I watch a video that I downloaded online that although it is for Xplane, a real world Challenger pilot is teaching how to do things in real world and with just a few exceptions all the buttons work that I can see, screens and everything. The fire test is not modeled but neither is it in the payware Xplane. When I do preflights on any aircraft I follow the checklist and if it isn't modeled I just click on it with the mouse. You can find the video online as well as the Bombardier manuals for the real aircraft. The pilot did a walk around to start but the xplane isn't A2A so there are no gearpins, opening fuel doors, door handles with clickspots etc. on either one so if you want to skip the exterior walk around I probably will and start the preflight with the Cold And Dark in the cockpit. I found today that Garrett's Boeing Honeywell FMC gauge that is supplied with it works ok too but it is not possible to tune the comm's like the real FMC so I created a window with Bendix King Com1, Com2, Nav1, Nav2 and Xponder so that they can be tuned. They ARE visibly changed in the FMC. In order to get them as a popup, I deleted Window 4 which is the standby compass I didn't feel I had a need for so that way I can [SHIFT] and a number from 1-9 to get all the popups including the last one the radio window.
