Yeah like a native King Air 200 or Super 350!! A TBM would be nice as well, I'll take an 850 though haha
Flight1 was supposed to be working on a King Air 200 but it might have got canned... not sure
The only business-like turboprop up and coming I know of is RealAir's Royal Turbine Mod for their wonderful Duke:

Also there is a learjet 23 I think with a VC, located here:

To be honest, the model looks a little dated (as in fs98 style) but I've heard good things about it

A while back, I thought I read somewhere that Flight1 was working on a TBM 700 as well as an older model Lear. With the popularity of the Meridia they created some time ago, I bet a TBM 700 or a 850 would do really well.
That Xtreme Prototypes Lear I have heard mixed thigs about. The visual model is supposed to be really good but the FDE is supposed to be a little wacky. I thik it comes with a few differet models of the Lear though. The VC, from what I've read, seems to have a really like or really dislike sort of following. From the pics, it would seem the devs took a straight forward and rather flat approach to the VC textures which some seem to be really put off by while others seem to like them quite a bit. I guess it is a toss up on that one. At a price of close to $40, I would like to see some pretty defiitive "positives" to the add-on.
A 850 would be REALLY nice.

Thanks for the heads up on this. I love the Lear 23. Awesome lines on this plane. Love those short wings and huge wingtanks....
I hope he updates to his own VC soon.

There are flaws - make your own comparisons:

Yes, the cockpit window lines are incorrect... I dunno.. it might have the correct number of rivets on the wing panels which would certainly redeem it somewhat...
Of course, as a pilot I rarely get to admire/nitpick the exterior details at FL350 or 140kts on short final. Now if it never flies and resides in a museum that charges 16 Euro for admission I'd expect perfection...

Seventeen Euros for an exterior model...yeah, right...
Sharp looking model. Thanks for the screenshots.
I always loved the Lear 23 design.
