Overview
Based on KittyHawk's flight model, this release highlights the characteristics of a twin-engine, single-aisle jet suitable for regional and transcontinental operations. All subsequent refinements, including adjustments, were overseen by the developer David Grindele. Thanks to these combined efforts, the aircraft's aerodynamics replicate real-world behavior.
