Bucker Bu-131 Jungmann On Sale
Nicknamed the Strativarius of antique light aircraft of the 1930s, the Bucker Bü-131 came to be in 1934 with its first flight occurring on April 27th of that year. The Jungmann (pronounced Young man) was designed by Karl Bücker. The first model of Jungmann, the Bü-131A, went into production and rapidly became an extremely popular aircraft of that time, with most of Europe wanting these to train their pilots. Not long after the release of the 80HP Bü-131A did the Bücker Flugzuegbau firm releas... Nicknamed the Strativarius of antique light aircraft of the 1930s, the Bucker Bü-131 came to be in 1934 with its first flight occurring on April 27th of that year. The Jungmann (pronounced Young man) was designed by Karl Bücker. The first model of Jungmann, the Bü-131A, went into production and rapidly became an extremely popular aircraft of that time, with most of Europe wanting these to train their pilots. Not long after the release of the 80HP Bü-131A did the Bücker Flugzuegbau firm released their second Edition version of the bi-plane, the Bü-131B model. The 131B had the updated new Hirth A-2 sporting 105 HP. This new version was then licensed out to many European countries including Spain, Japan, Romania, Hungary, Yugoslavia, and Switzerland. (Many years later, other countries would go into limited production runs of the popular design).
This version of the Bücker Bü-131B by Lionheart Creations is the Swiss model which 99 units were produced in Switzerland. This particular model shows you a modernized version of one that would be typically owned and modified to todays standards, which includes fitting of radios (COM1 and Transponder) and NAV lights for night flying. I have also hidden a bare-bones autopilot in the instrument panel that has basic AP features. A free-to-download owners manual of this plane is available to show you in more detail how everything works.

LearFan 2200 On Sale
This is the LearFan designed by the famous Bill Lear of Learjet fandom and father of the Private Jet sector. Bill invisioned a lighter, sleeker turboprop that would be more economical to own and maintain as compared with private jets. His hopes were to bring in a new Turboprop that could compete with small jets at a fraction of the price.

This is the LearFan designed by the famous Bill Lear of Learjet fandom and father of the Private Jet sector. Bill invisioned a lighter, sleeker turboprop that would be more economical to own and maintain as compared with private jets. His hopes were to bring in a new Turboprop that could compete with small jets at a fraction of the price. The sleek prop-jet was completely made of Carbonfiber, which was ahead of its time in the 1980's. The powerplant was originally dual jet turoprop engines side by side in the tail, running shafts to a transmission and out to the propeller. The system was very similar to a helicopter twin jet setup. This enabled the plane to have a backup engine if one of the jets had a in-flight issue.
This creation for MSFS flight simulator is a new advanced version of the LearFan and is rebadged as the LF2200. The original was the LF2100 with twin jets. This unique continuance of the design modernizes the aircraft into a single jet powerplant of the new Pratt and Whitney PW127EX high efficiency power TP jet, bringing the aircraft to 2600 SHP, nearly twice its original and is lighter in weight and higher efficiency. The interior is quite refined to modern standards and is fitted with a modern, state of the art glass screen Avionics Suite, the AS3X touch screen system.
From high end quality leather to beautiful wood veneer, this sleek 8 seater 'Turboprop' Biz Jet is quite loaded with the luxuries of a small personal jet.
The cruise speed of the LF2100 and this new one, the LF2200, is 280 Knots, and an incredible max speed of 390 knots TAS at 30K to 40K feet. I wanted to keep the speeds the same as the original. The ceiling of the LF2200 and the original 2100 is/was 40,000 feet and featured a massive range of 1780 Nautical Miles.
If you are yearning for something radically new to fly, something advanced, a plane that is easy to fly and not overly complicated, something that comes with a plethera of various paint schemes and interiors, this might be for you. This is a Vision, a dream of Bill Lear and I have sought to bring it to this present age, complete with todays standards of modern avionics and an incredible Pratt and Whitney high output jet, and a sporty, high end, luxury cabin.
This package comes with ten different paint schemes that also include multiple colored interior cabin themes; from cherry wood veneer to dark gray stained wood to Swedish Teak, and the list goes on.
Please read through the manual to see what all this wild aircraft comes with. You will want to learn how she works and where all the gizmos and switches and neat features are. Lots of screenshots, so do not worry, not too much reading.
Happy flights and pray for the people of the Ukraine!

LHC Wittman Tailwind Bush Plane
The Tailwind W10 'Bush Edition' is a 2-seat, single-engine, home-built light civil aircraft developed by American aerospace engineer Steve Wittman and radically modified by custom aircraft builder Craig Thomas. This aircraft variant has been greatly modified and features a heavier airframe to endure hard landings, a wider wingspan with added 6 feet to the wings.

The Tailwind W10 'Bush Edition' is a 2-seat, single-engine, home-built light civil aircraft developed by American aerospace engineer Steve Wittman and radically modified by custom aircraft builder Craig Thomas. This aircraft variant has been greatly modified and features a heavier airframe to endure hard landings, a wider wingspan with added 6 feet to the wings. The new variant has 22 gallon tanks in each wing, plus the main tank having 20 gallons. The massive prop requires a very high, highly modified landing gear which can also endure rough landings. This is a STOL Short Take-off and Landing aircraft. The original Tailwind design, the W8, was introduced in 1953 and a number of Tailwind variants were engineered in the ensuing decades. The W10 evolved from the W8 and features tapered wingtips for improved aerodynamic efficiency and a tricycle undercarriage. More than 350 Tailwinds, including all variants, have been built. The Tailwind W10 features a strut-braced, high-mounted main wing with tapered wingtips, side-by-side seating, and a tricycle undercarriage. The simple, boxy fuselage is constructed with steel tubing covered in fabric. The wing and empennage are framed with wood and covered in fabric. The Tailwind W10, like all Tailwind models, is renowned among pilots as simple, rugged, reliable, forgiving, and a great overall performer. The W10 is well suited for beginners learning to fly as well as seasoned aviators looking for a great cross-country cruiser. The Tailwind W10 measures 19 feet, 3 inches in length, stands 6 feet, 3 inches tall, and has a wingspan of 26 feet, 11 inches. It is powered by a 6-cylinder Lycoming IO-540 piston engine that delivers up to 260 horsepower and turns a 2-blade propeller. The W-10 Bush Edition Tailwind has a range of 600 miles, a service ceiling of 16,000 feet above sea level, it climbs at 1000 feet per minute, and it has a top speed of 200 miles per hour.

LHC Wittman Tailwind Series On Sale
Welcome to another Aircraft Adventure by Lionheart Creations. In this package, you will find two highly acclaimed ‘Experimental Homebuilt Sport Aircraft’ designed by the famous aircraft designer and air racer; 'Steve Wittman'. These are the Wittman Tailwind series W-8 and W-10 Models. The W-8 is a simpler build version with smaller engine and more basic instrument panel, while the W-10 Edition is a radical build with a 6 cylinder engine and a high technology glass screen avionics suite.

In this package, you will find two highly acclaimed ‘Experimental Homebuilt Sport Aircraft’ designed by the famous aircraft designer and air racer; 'Steve Wittman'. These are the Wittman Tailwind series W-8 and W-10 Models. The W-8 is a simpler build version with smaller engine and more basic instrument panel, while the W-10 Edition is a radical build with a 6 cylinder engine and a high technology glass screen avionics suite. One is more realistic and slower, while the other, the W-10, is more of a exotic version of what one can do with these unique little Speedster aircraft.
The looks of the Tailwind are radical. They are small, tight fitting, sporty looking aircraft with a cowling shaped like a wedge, its perspex windscreen curving up from the cowling like a wing foil shape, making the entire top of the fuselage a 'lift' inducing wing surface. The wings are like a Bellanca. Fully wood construction, from spar and ribbing, to the skins, they have no rivets, no seams, are sanded and finished with a glass finish, making them ultra slippery with windflow.
The package has many features. A high detail interior, really unique seats, Asobo state of the art soundpacks with all their various high resolution sound effects that even include squeaks and rattles, flap airflow sounds, and the list goes on. The seats in the Tailwind are a jump up. In my design of this package, I thought. . . How would I make my Tailwind? And I thought about seats. On the W-8, I have Lamborghini Countach remakes for seats. They fit you comfortably in a very tight cabin, just like the Tailwind. And for the W-10 Ultra, I wanted something futuristic, like these new modern sport planes have, so I went with modern Off Road Sport Utility Vehicle style seats. For the panels, I wanted the W-8 to be able to look 'vintage' as well as modern. So I have older versions with krinkle paint, aged, as well as wood and also carbon fiber. Note that the W-8 Series Tailwind first appeared in about 1954. Very advanced for its time. So I wished to also include the earlier versions, as well as very modern, up to date variants.
Also. . . I wanted to make these 'Adventure' planes. Part of the 'Theme' of this package was to make a set of 'Adventure' aircraft where you could go on a dream journey, like to Oshkosh, for instance. And so I thought. . . They will need 'Tents' and little folding chairs. So I have included a 'Camping Mode' where you click a button and a small ensemble deploys, consisting of two little camping tents, two fold up, ultra-lite chairs, a cooler for food, and your flight bag. There is even a little campfire that glows red at night and lanterns hanging on the wings on the tie-down loops. Flip those on at night for camping lighting.
Oh, and about 29 paint schemes total… I know. I go overboard on Liveries.
These are meant to be radically fun, yet also with some realistic handling and speeds. Not too fast, but not slow either. Steve would want them to be doing their proper speeds, and then some, if you know what I mean. So if you want a steady level plane, this might not be it. This is what I call a 'Dream Build', a vision of 'What if. . . ' where you have the funds to make a really nice home built plane, and this is what it might turn out to be like.
There is a neat manual with lots of screenshots, information, and diagrams for you to glance over. It is in the W-8 airplane folder, in the Manual folder.
I hope you enjoy them. They were made with much love and enthusiasm.
God bless and Amazing Adventures!
Bill

Pasped Skylark On Sale
The Skylark W-1 was a low wing, single engined monoplane designed in the 1930's and had first flight in 1935 in Glendale California. The aircraft was quite rare for its day. Its primary focus was to be a trainer for the Air Corp of the United States but as a secondary use, a small two seater business liner which had gained high popularity back in the golden age of aviation, where wealthy business people could get around faster and safer by plane then by car.

The aircraft was quite rare for its day. Its primary focus was to be a trainer for the Air Corp of the United States but as a secondary use, a small two seater business liner which had gained high popularity back in the golden age of aviation, where wealthy business people could get around faster and safer by plane then by car. The design of the Skylark used bracings (like struts) on both the wings and the landing gear. ANother wild feature of this rare design was that she had normal automotive style doors that hinged open as well as a sliding canopy on top, which allowed you to be able to fly with the roof open or closed. nnThis aircraft features a 125 HP Warner Scarab, giving it cruise speed of 124 MPH and a top end speed of 140 MPH. The aircraft was so lite and large, that it was able to do STOL landings of approximately 35 MPH. The design featured a flap panel located under the belly of the plane that retracted via an electric motor and acted more like a dive brake or air-brake, rather then a low-flight lift enhancing flight surface. This package features 8 paint schemes, several colors of panels, a loud and unique radial engine sound pack. The aircraft package features rain effects on the plexi, lighting effects, sound effects from flight controls, and even features a auto-pilot for those who like to look around at scenery while in a flight. If you like classic old planes, this one is radical. Its like a sportster version of a Staggerwing Beech with giant wheel spats. This even featured car doors as well as a slide back canopy for open air flight. A sleek, nastalgic plane of the golden age of aviation.
