Solent SJ-140 «Skyliner»
first of all don't ask how i got that name...
The SJ-140 Skyliner is the second one of the Solent SJ- series of private jets, having space for 7 passengers and two pilots. It features
Automatics
yaw damper (works well but can bug out, in which case just restart AG8
Stall protection (pushes the nose down below about 140 km/h (76 knots)
all of them can be switched off with AG8
also, no variables here!
VR
idk if it actually works with VR, I've just followed all the curation criteria I could
Design
it has canards, obviously
The main inspiration for the SJ-140 was probably this
what else can I say?
this?
No that's probably a wee bit off topic...
parts I «borrowed» from other planes
The PFD is from @GuianLorenzo's LearJet 75
The Wings are a modified version of @AGSR1AEROSPACE's Gulfstream G650ER
how to fly
takeoff:
trim all the way back, throttle to 100 and pull back fully above 140 km/h (76 knots)
as soon as you reach 250 km/h (135 knots), you can reduce the throttle to 70-85 and continue climbing, keeping the speed steady
landing:
trim all the way back once again, approach speed around 210 km/h (113 knots), landing speed about 190 km/h (103 knots)
Additional notes
- if you want a custom livery just ask for it in the comments.
- if the plane starts oscillating left and right on its own, just turn off and on again AG8 or the switch labelled «automatics» in the glare shield
- I spent way too long on the engine code
- I use a Logitech flight yoke so if it flies a bit awkwardly on keyboard just let me now and I'll try fixing it
"it flies backwards!"

@Solent19 also, i think that you're underrated asf
@Solent19 Oh Just an old movie Quote.

Please don't :)
@DatFiat126Fan19 DatSolent19Guy19
@Solent19 im not just obsessed with just one car, i ran out of ideas for usernames so... fiat 126 it is!
i'm just wondering how one can be so obsessed with a single car
@DatFiat126Fan19 but to be honest I don't really care, so what I'm building now is the Solent S-126
between 10 and 50
if it were to be named S-126 it would have to be bigger
@Solent19 126 maybe?
as in fiat 126
@DatFiat126Fan19 BTW please give me a number between 10 and 50 to give to that cessna style six seater T-tail thingy, as in "Solent S-??"
@DatFiat126Fan19 thanks (:
but now I'll make the cessna-style six seater T-tail thingy
@DatFiat126Fan19 that's for when I don't know what to build, which is most of the time, but this time my brother wanted another private jet
@Solent19 also, T-Tail 6-Seater Cessna Styled Plane When
@DatFiat126Fan19 me neither tbh
@Kerbango i don't get it?
@Kerbango ???
It's People! The pilots are people!
