I wanted to share a simple modification I made to the flight model to make an allowance for the reduced drag from the winglets. In the TorqueSim Discord channel, ProfessorCrash said the range increase is 300nm from 1100nm to 1400nm, a 27% increase in range. I therefore reduced the fuselage coefficient of drag (cd) by 27% from 0.058 to 0.049. I assumed a min cd of 0.025 (Plane Maker manual states a very sleek fuselage has a cd of 0.025) and deducted 27% from the difference between the min cd and the current cd, i.e. 0.058 - (0.27 x (0.058 - 0.025)) = 0.049. In my test flights to date, I am achieving range proportionate with ProfessorCrash's Tamarack performance graph. If you want to try this, the line to change in the CJ525.acf file is: P _body/0/_part_cd 0.049

Very nice

I'll try to find some time, to try the minimum to make her working in XP12, but no promises about when.

I've used it this past week for an easyJet livery I've uploaded and I'm using XP12 and the 737 Classic Plus. So, yes it does

Agree, is that possible?

You are welcomed! At this point, with Gizmo having no future, the only way to make it work is to rewrite the whole code in a c/c++ plugin. Unfortunately this is far for trivial or fast to do, and a have no free time, at least for the 2025. But after that might do something big for the Avanti.

Great livery man, seeing the wingtips are black from the original livery.

This is BRILLIANT !!

Any plans to create another version that allows for custom registrations? I know it would remove the ability to have a wing registration but I would like to simulate some VISTA AMERICA ops.

I love you.

I found a lovely livery of Aer Lingus, let me put it in the to do list :-)

thank you so mutch ...any chance of a air lingus livery?

Wow, the different materials look awesome!

Great livery, thanks a lot. Any chance of a British European livery?

In lack of better words : waaaaw <3

That would be possible to put the request in the queue :-) This one ? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_Aerospace_125#/media/File:BAe125_aircraft_from_a_flight_of_32_(The_Royal)_Squadron_MOD_45147916_(cropped).jpg

Thanks a lot yet again! Great livery!

Hi there, Could we have some hope still for an XP12 version of your wonderful P180? Many thanks. Al.

Thanks for this Christophe, it's much appreciated.

Why is this uploaded twice?

Are you loading Planemaker with X plane running at the same time? This is the only thing I could think of.

When i download it, it just downloads a readme

Hi, This aircraft work with XP11?
