Solent S-24

5,102 Solent  4 months ago

The Solent S-24 is a small electric regional airliner with space for up to 19 passengers and 2 pilots.


Design

The basic airframe and cockpit layout are based on the PS-26 from TFS, although it ended up being significantly bigger than the inspiration. Also it's not a seaplane, that information might be important to avoid CFIT's.


Performance

1G Stall speed: 64 knots/120 km/h
Max IAS: 220 knots/410 km/h
Takeoff run: 350m
Landing run: 200m


Parts I "borrowed" from other planes

The artificial horizon is from @GuianLorenzo 's LearJet 75
The Speed and Altitude and all that is from @MonikaAkiyama's CA-50U


VR

I don't have a way of testing if my planes are VR-compatible, but I tried following as many of the curation criteria as I could.


How to fly:

basically just activate AG1,2 and 3 and you'll be good to go, or press the buttons in the cockpit called "Master Battery" on the glareshield and the two buttons on the throttle levers.
.
all the other buttons are for decoration, i'm too lazy to make all of them do something.
Also AG5 for the door

    @Solent the Cockpit on this aircraft feels like the PS-28 in Turboprop FS, with the pilot in center right and copilot at the front. Just noticed that on downloading
