Managing Shamal Winds

The Buckingham Shamal is a welcome addition to our handling fleet.

Modeled after the Lear 55, the Shamal is a small-to-medium sized private jet. Despite its age, its lower price point compared to newer models (like the Nimbus) makes it an ideal solution for airlines looking to expand their fleet affordably, small-to-medium businesses, or anyone in between. Its fuel tank capacity is enhanced by improved engines, allowing for longer ranges than the original Shamal. While the cozy interior may not boast all the features of other aircraft, its 8-passenger / 2-pilot configuration provides ample space to transport passengers comfortably.

I was able to complete this handling relatively quickly, building upon an existing base for private jet handling. I hope you enjoy it and as always, feel free to provide feedback or requests in the comments!

Note: Be wary of unreliable AI that lacks proper aircraft handling skills. If they crash, I am not responsible for any resulting insurance claims.

You will also need to learn how to remove the AI "scenario" (the name given to AI events) yourself.

Good luck!

More updates are coming soon! Stay tuned! :D

Changelog:

v3 introduces the ability to control aircraft in crosswind conditions (hypothetically, of course).
