The Horizon-15C (HZC-15) "Lancer II" (aka Lancer Remastered) is OSAS' second commercial plane. The previous version wasn't the most optimal choice, with only 18 seats and a higher cost, the initial iteration of this jet didn't meet expectations. But now, after a lot of time, our engineers have managed to come up with a significantly improved design compared to its predecessor.
The Lancer II is a complete overhaul of the original craft, it has a smoother design, it's bigger, it has more details and features (that are covered below), it has pretty much the same part count and it's significantly cheaper (mainly due to tinkering the parts' properties).
Features and improvements (and some useless details):
- Capacity increased to 48 passengers;
- Built-in stairs in case there is no jetway available;
- Engine access cover;
- Cargo compartment at the back;
- Custom-ish rear landing gears;
- A more "realistic" looking cockpit;
- A bathroom (very important);
- Reverse thrusters
- A mess of a vizzy program to do everything (by "everything" i mean the stairs and landing gear and stuff. I don't really know what i'm doing on vizzy even tho i have some programming knowledge);
Now OSAS can proudly say that the Lancer Remastered is a great option for your regional jet needs both aesthetically and financially.
For reference, here are both the old and remastered versions of the Lancer side by side
How to fly:
- All action groups are labeled (don't try to break the vizzy program, idk how easy it is lol)
- Note: to extend the stairs make sure the door is fully open and to close the door make sure the stairs are fully retracted
- Slider 1 (up): Flaps
- Takeoff speed: ~70m/s
There are more things i wanted to add but for some reason my PC cried for mercy every time i launched the craft. I also wanted to fix the vizzy program (specifically the timings) but it was hard to test with my computer's struggles so some particular timings are a little long)
@Spenzerointernational I've never thought of it that way but i suppose it's true hahaha
