I know this nice little jet has been posted a few times, but I wanted to share my shots too! Tongue

I got the keys to her the other day and decided to take this little gem on an hours test flight in the early evening light. I have to say, I love this little power plant!

Early evening as I leave the cold asphalt.

The gear starts to retract as it is full throttle up and out!

We keep this bird on a 5 degree climb out of The Juneau Straights.

I leveled of The Citation at 10,000ft and took in the sights of the Alaskan bush below.

After cruising her around for a half hour, it is time to get her back to her hanger.

Check out the landing here!!!!

WoW!!

Absolutely fantastic shots! Which plane is it?? A Cessna?

Is it a freeware? Does it work on FS2002?

Very well done

It is a great liittke plane and the 2D panel you can install for it isnt too bad either, however I am having a bear of a time getting any of the other repaints to load properly. Other than the 2 you initially get and that green striped one, the others wont load. Something about incorrect text lines in the script Angry

Great shots though

My life is like the movie Office Space

Your last shot looks like it belongs in a Citation advert. Brings back memories, I had the pleasure of sitting in the right hand seat on a shot hop about 30yrs ago, in William Woods' Citaiton. Really nice airplane and really nice shots.
