The Jaguar project for X-Plane has been a long time in the making. The overall aim is to realistically simulate the Sepecat Jaguar aircraft in many of its guises and to a high visual quality.

I began developing this model back in 2007, and since then I have spent many hours, and a fair amount of money researching and gathering data to ensure the flight model is accurate as possible within the limitations of X-Plane.

Assistance has been sought from ex Jaguar pilots, and from current Jaguar technicians and museum restoration teams. Some very kind and skilled people have provided me with dimensions, access to a real Jaguar, and documentation to aid systems and flight modelling.

The entire flight model has been rebuilt multiple times, and the 3D model had a few iterations before good progress was made.

This blog will document the build process, and updates will be posted when decent steps are made.

This is a long term project, and it will be available to buy upon its completion.

Long Time, No Update!

It's been a looooooong time since i posted an update here.

Work has not ceased, it has just slowed down a little!

I am slowly but surely building the instruments, switches and indicators for the 3D cockpit, all in 3D, and all with the level of detail you might expect form this project!

I am also scripting a new flightmodel in Gizmo, which thus far has proved difficult, yet extremely satisfying, when it works as expected!

I'll try and post some images soon!
