Falcon

[BillD22]

Here are some shots of a 3 engine "Falcon 50" business jet from French manufacturer Dassault Aviation. The Falcon 50 was in production from 1976 - 2008 and was one of the first long range trans oceanic and trans continental biz jet models. This is a freeware version converted from an FS2004 original to FSX native format at a payware quality level

 

I frequently see the r/w versions landing at the local airport here which has quite a lot of biz jet traffic. Very cool looking airplanes with luxurious interiors.

Ahh the smell of Rich Corinthian Leather. The perfect transportation for a trip to Fantasy Island.

Did anyone else read this with the voice of Ricardo Montalban?

Not only are you very astute, but "You look mmarvellous!" (OK that's Billy Crystal, but he's doing Montalban!)

[wolf2]

bill: thanks! bob: nope, he was doing Fernando llamas! and I never could agree that "it is better to look good than to feel good". ever see the one where he makes hulk Hogan crack up? love that one. as for ricardo, he does indeed drive his cordoba to the airport, and when his little passenger sees that falcon he says "de plane, de plane!" I think the pilot has a bad history w him tho, he gets livid when he sees him and shouts "khaaaaaannnn"!! (geez, long way to go for a couple of references)

[azzaro]

Oh yeah! Forgot all about Fernando Llamas. 'Course he was never on Spy Kids or anything good like that.

I suspect Hulk Hogan was an easy target. I always liked Billy and Chris Guest as the security guards.

[wolf2]

yup, and that particular crash was also the origin of massive head-wound harry!

I fly this bird whenever I feel nostalgic. Great pics!!
