In this release, Project Open Sky’s flight model underpins the aircraft’s behavior, and the WestJet-inspired livery adds a distinctive visual presence. If you are seeking an expanded jumbo jet experience in your simulator, you may find this model particularly interesting. The creators also included various improvements, such as refined flight characteristics and an upgraded exterior model.
