Sometimes you just want to fly, or you are new to flight simulation, and don't wish spend 30 minutes preflighting an aircraft. Maybe today you don't want to spend much effort to create a flightplan and programming a flight management computer. feelThere LE aircraft are designed to be detailed enough to immerse you in the simulation experience and quickly get into the air from power-up to takeoff. Many systems are modeled, just not every system. You will find the level of detailed is greater than any flight simulator default aircraft. The systems that are modeled behave correctly; or are only slightly simplified. LE aircraft are designed for fun … which is the point for playing Microsoft's Flight Simulator.

With the release of their ERJ-145 series, whether or not they realize it, the guys over at Feelthere has set a standard that their customers expect from them. Lucky for us, their implementation of the Embraer Phenom 100 meets that standard.
There is really not much to say about this add on, which is not to say there is anything bad about it. It’s a great implementation of the Phenom 100. The Cockpit is nice and crisp. The external textures are flawless. Just about everything is simulated. It’s easy to start, and easy to fly. And it’s easy on frames. And under $30 USD, it is very reasonably priced.
In addition to the Phenom 100, I’m also the proud owner of the ERJ-145 series, and the E-175 & E-195 line of Embraer regional jets implemented by Feelthere. I’ve come to expect a high level of fit and finish, polish, and professionalism with Feelthere’s products. The Phenom 100 fits perfectly within this criteria. 5 Stars.
Great little jet for FS9. VC is great.. Only downside is the FPS jumping from 30 down to 18-19 constantly. Not sure what causes this but its still a great aircraft.
Well i got this a few weeks ago, after i was unsure if i wanted as it is a Lite project, But today i have to say i am hapy i did get it for some shorter flights, as it is a nice plane i must say yes i miss some funktions of the plane, but it wasent there aim and on the other hand now im using electronic flight bag for updaing the flightplan, and inserting sid and stars so it´s quite ok. It is as they say you can fly quickly but you still need a small amount of work to get it set up right for departure and using the Autopilot..
It seems like there is a good balance between simulations and just fly if your not wanting to sit for hours and read a manual if that the kind of pilot you are.. or like me i got the old Legacy by wilco for some years a go and never used it much as i alway just hear and saw warning after warning..
so when i saw this project i think it was time to give a small plan a try to my short flights. and in this phenom if you start of whit engine running all you would get a warning for is the Take off not ok if you dont set flaps and trim for take off. thats if you just up to a quick flight whit out checklists..
a not so good thing i mean is the night lighting in the VC it isen´t that good it´s quite dark i would have preferred some better lighting but thats just me and thats why it lost 1 star and the other for not include sid and star like in there other projects, it could be it´s a lite project but thats someting i think could give more costumers, as that makes it easyer to fly whit out having to pay for other programs like i use to update inflight..
