Ghost Dynamics Type 300 Commuter (Regional Aircraft Challenge)
Ok, I threw this one together rather quickly, but I think she’ll be right...
The Ghost Dynamics Type 300 “Commuter” is a short haul tri jet airliner, designed to operate feeder routes to major air travel hubs.
She can be configured to carry passengers, cargo or both, using her flexible twin cabin arrangement.
In this configuration she can carry 52 paying passengers in not too much discomfort from Wright to Snowstone and make the return without refueling.
She has a (reasonably) nice passenger cabin and an ok(ish) office up front for the flight crew. All flight controls represented are animated.
Controls are;
For gear up, use the GEAR command. After the gear has cucled closed, activate AG1 to cycle closed the bay doors. When lowering the gear, ensure that AG1 is active, that way everything deploys together.
Flaps are VTOL down, TRIM allows you to trim the elevator slab.
AG2 activates the lights.
No fancy giro stabilisation here; this airframe is quite benign in her handling. Just dont try to go balistic and you and your passengers will be ok.
Cam 2 and 3 are the left and right pilot seats respectively, cam 1 is Bob in seat 5a.
Happy landings!

Good job can you help me build good wings for my new airliner?
It really was a quick build. The hollow fuselage was a sub-assembly I had and the cabin was just a lot of mirroring. The biggest pain the the posterior was the fact that it is heavy and I had to go back and stuff an additional engine in her, ahem, rear... @Alien
Hmm, just thrown together quickly, old bean? I think I'll retire from SP now.
Nice little commuter jet, love the cabin detail!
