However, show me a bizjet with 1:1 thrust to weight and four point harnesses and I'll consider it...

This is what you're looking for! The Da$$ault Falcon 10. A bizjet built and flown like a fighter!

Since this is a plane produced from 1971 to 1989, since it was retired in 2003 from active duties in the French Navy, and if you market it under the name "Lotus Falcon 10", I don't think Da$$ault will unleash its lawyers on you...

Aero 45/145

Lotus said:
Thanks James. I too would like to see something new come from me, haha.

The MiG-29 was turning out to be a massive headache in just about every respect, and really good reference was very hard to come by. Also at the time I felt that my programming skills were not quite good enough to do proper justice to its systems. That part at least has improved over the past year, so I may still finish that project at some point, but probably not for a long while. For the past six months I have been working very hard on simpler aircraft, but I found out a couple of days ago that another developer has been working on that very same aircraft for quite some time and is much closer to completion than I am. So that one goes on the shelf now too. Just can't seem to get a break here, hehe. At least I learned some new stuff while working on it. At the moment I'm evaluating new airframe options. The main problem I face is that there are very very few aircraft that I really and truly adore, and most of those have been done for FSX already, and done well. I'll let you know what I come up with I guess... whenever I come up with it. :)

Thanks,

-Mike

Hi Mike. Would you do Aero 45/145? Good Aero 145 in FSX there. Materials I could deliver.
Sincerely,
Jožo
 
I totally forgot about the Draken... So that leaves me to think Grippen (i know AS did it but its not to a extreame good standard) or Viggen!!!


Mike (Lotus) where in europe you heading then using our collective knowledge and the WWW we could find some museums etc to the area your heading to see what aircraft would be suitable?

Well said. :) The Falcomposite Furio will be another gem. May Mike have time to complete that fun little hot rod.

Hard to believe that the Lotus Simulations L-39 Albatros is nearing 5 years old. She remains at the top of my list as favorite, still finding myself reading the manual just for the enjoyment.

Agreed. The Lotus L-39; simple to learn and fly. Weather effects on the canopy and airframe get you much closer to the real deal up there. Great frame rates, anywhere I fly, in any weather.
Just a wonderful product.

And the first to showcase the special 3D lights. In fact most called them "Lotus Lights" when they appeared in other products.

I remember when Nick C started a thread on that plane here.... holy cow big thread!

And Amazing plane!
 
Agreed. One of the best all around FSX addons I ever bought and I own most all of em. If he ever releases anything else I will buy it sight unseen.
 
I still call them the Lotus-style 3D lights. :p Certainly one of my favorite third party aircraft for flight sim. Looks great, runs smoothly, has innovative features, works well in multiplayer, and overall pretty fun to fly. :)
