    Anyone working on a payware Gulfstream?

    This looks so nice!

    Would be a great addition to FSX!

    According to different sources, it's never going to happen. Sadly Gulfstream won't play ball with FS Developers at all.

    That is most disappointing NC

    I wholeheartedly agree Chief. Gulfstream rarely to never licenses out 3rd party products bearing their name and are quick to take anyone to court who ignores their lawyers cease & desist warnings. I saw a case where they sued a pilot (who happened to be type rated on a GIIB) who promoted Gulfstream Aircraft via a social media screen name but the company (Gulfstream) claimed the pilot was promoting their aviation company with the Gulfstream trademark. The whole thing was viewed as being a ridiculous & overzealous move by the company and was quietly settled out of court. Oh well, maybe one day they may change their minds.

    As Storm says, it isn't going to happen.

    It seems that the competition e.g.., Bombardier has no such silly hangup . .

    Striker, listen, and you listen close: flying a plane is no different than riding a bicycle, just a lot harder to put baseball cards in the spokes.

    Such a shame. They are beautiful aircraft.
    "Try to stay in the middle of the air. Do not go near the edges of it. The edges of the air can be recognized by the appearance of ground, buildings, sea, trees and interstellar space. It is much more difficult to fly there".

    As the saying goes, "Never say never." I will maintain hope that someday things might change. Of course I may not be around when it does, or my computer could quit working..... NC

    There was a WIP somewhere.... it was a facebook page I saw.

    I found the 3d render of the cockpit to be used in that project, but I'm unable to find the actual project link



    Oh I found the page - not sure if they are continuing or not.

    Shoot! Dang, that looks nice (as Maj Kong would say)! Shame nothing can be done with it. I'd plug it in to the IRIS freeware GEX in a heartbeat.

    I see that doesn't claim to be a particular aircraft by a specific manufacturer: very sensible! (otherwise you can be sure a cease-and-desist would have already landed) Looks a fine VC model.

    Personally I don't see what all the hub-bub is all about. If someone wants to make a model in the confines of freeware there is nothing to stop it. Name it a Gulfscream or Golfstream and post it. There is nothing that can be done about it. Any protestations would have the burden of proof as a requirement.

    If I were so inclined, I would not hesitate to build the model. Of course I would never consider something so pedestrian.

    I've only seen 1 freeware quality Gulf with USAF and USMC paints and it's in XP10 and XP11.

    Worth getting the 450 even with future development still to happen.
    Their 550 looks very promising.

    Anyone try this yet? Interior looks nice but exterior looks kind of bland.

    Its way WIP

    No exterior Textures yet-->but painkit. Do it yourself
    And you need to read manual a lot to even start the engines

    All that for 25 bucks.

    But I started yesterday with Version 4.2.1-->today we are at 4.3 and we have jokes now.

    So I am fine and that is the only chance to have an FSX native Gulfstream.And who knows Gulfstream as company it may not be for long

    Therefore worthwile to do for me

    my 2 Cents

    Looks nice. Saw that it was for FSX, wonder if it would work with P3D V3.4, or if there are plans?

    + If it were purchased now, would free updates be available in the future as this WIP progresses?


    I think Navy Chief is showing a Pic of a C-20 AKA GIII or G IV

    Would be nice if someone would make a paint that looks like what Navy Chief posted - That is sharp

    Here is some data on the Gulfstream lines that I didn't know about.

    I wonder if this will protect them from the manufacturer of the original aircraft...

    If it works in P3D V4 it will be a sure buy for me.

    Yes you get updated

    had 3 in 2 days

    may not be that fast forever but still moves on till you have final version

    C'mon Bjoern, which lawyer is going to make a good case on that basis? And just how ridiculous will any lawsuit look to a court? I'm quite sure the external textures are that bland so no-one will be able to mistake it for a real aircraft manufacturer's product and waste the court's valuable time. Hope there's a good paintkit, mind you!

    Aren't "Cease and Desist" orders usually enough to scare people away from doing what they're doing?

    But maybe one should really base any Golfstrom developers in countries whose legal system has something better to do than compare window roundness and rivets between a virtual rendition and the real thing.

    It all depends on what Gulfstream has trademarked. They can have the shape trademarked and win. We have trademarks on one of our locomotives, which includes color, numbers, shape, and a few more things. If they want it stopped, or it falls under their TM, they will win.
