Also the [[Cessna_550_Citation_II|Citation II]] has received several upgrades - and still there's more to come! Ludovic Brenta and chris_blues put in a lot of time to polish her and bring her up to specs.


While overhauling the FDM, Ludovic also created a new aircraft for us: the Sierra Super II. This is essentially an aftermarket modifcation of the Citation II, with newer and more powerful engines. She's got an impressive rate of climb, and needs less fuel for an increased reach.
