A few months ago, Icecode and Star started the development of the [[Airbus A310-300]]. [[http://theomegahangar.yolasite.com TheOmegaHangar]] has been working on this aircraft for the past two weeks and it's come to a stable state with a good JSBSim Flight Dynamics Model, Model and Systems. It also has a complete 3-class configuration cabin, an Airbus FlightDeck and some features like wing-flex, light-maps etc. The airplane is not available for download yet as it was hosted in [[Merlion Virtual Airlines]] forum which is temporarily down due to rebuild. | |||
==== Embraer E-jet Series ==== | |||

This project was initially started by [[http://theomegahangar.yolasite.com TheOmegaHangar]] about 2 months ago but was stalled due to other projects. Now, a completely new model has been made and currently, we're working on a good JSBSim FDM. All the animations are complete, the cockpit instruments are modeled (not animated yet) and some cool stuff like the ladder, cabin and wing-flex are also completed. You can track this project in [http://flightgear.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=13296 the forum]. | |||
