What's new in version 3?


A Fighter in Civilian Clothing

Nicknamed "fighters in civilian clothing" because of their sleek design and amazing performance, the classic Learjet 20 Series aircraft were the first true executive jets and redefined business aviation during the 1960’s and 70’s, flying high above the weather at transonic speeds. Their capabilities earned them a place among the extreme aircraft, setting record after record. With the longer-range Gates Learjet Model 25D, from which this addon is inspired, came a longer cabin, increased seating capacity, more flexible loading options, greater fuel capacity and a rather sleek-looking stretched fuselage.

Compared to flying other business jets, the Lear 25 gives you a thrill similar to racing a performance sports car and leaving all other competitors way behind. It is fast, slim, sexy, comfortable and capable of maneuvers you would never attempt with another civilian aircraft. According to some real-world pilots, its performance as a general aviation business jet is simply unequaled, even by today’s standards!

A Unique Addon for your Hangar

The Xtreme Prototypes GLJ Model 25 SE is a next generation addon optimized for the latest versions of our favorite simulation platforms and designed to take advantage of the new and more powerful gaming computers and video cards that are available today. It is a complex aircraft simulator that features high resolution models and textures, hundreds of animations, over 60 sound effects, dynamic light effects, custom aircraft systems and full-3D VR-ready virtual cockpits that make this addon an ideal candidate for new virtual reality devices and applications.

Nothing was spared in our efforts to reproduce the different instrument panels, carefully modeling and animating each mechanical device with all the necessary moving parts. Except for the LCD screens and the new radio's VFD displays, no flat 2D gauges are used in this model. Everything you see on your computer screen is in full 3D!

The result is a unique addon that strives to bring you not only the actual feeling of flying a high performance aircraft now equipped with modern avionics but also the spirit of maneuvering such a vehicle at a time when LCD screens and powerful computers didn't exist and pilots needed to know how to fly and navigate with minimal resources and rely on their own experience, abilities and judgment.

For the general aviation desktop pilot, being able to hop between small regional airports while passing airliners along the way is quite a thrill, but for the serious IFR enthusiast, we are confident this package will provide years of flying pleasure. Even if there are some differences between this addon and the real aircraft, nearly all systems, instruments, switches and knobs are fully functional in order to simulate complete procedures, from cold and dark to shutdown.

Designed by Users for Users

At Xtreme Prototypes, we consider our addons as real micro aircraft simulators rather than just games. Our products take months if not years to develop and test by a dedicated and passionate team of artists, technicians and pilots. We pay attention to every detail and we do our best to make sure that we provide our users with the best flight simulation experience they can get within the limitations of the current simulation platforms.

Becoming one of our users makes you an important member of our development team. Version 3.0 of our GLJ Model 25 SE addon is the product of the many ideas, comments and suggestions we received from serious computer pilots like you, from around the world. We wish to express our gratitude to all our users, followers, reviewers, test pilots, ex-Learjet employees, partners and friends for their contribution to the making and the success of this extreme aircraft simulator. Thank you for your sustained interest and continuous support!

Note: Software features are subject to change without notice. Some functionalities may differ from those in the real aircraft due to limitations in the simulation platforms.

Some features available in the native Prepar3D® versions may not be available in the FSX versions. Due to some limitations in the FSX simulation platform, the FSX versions contain less animations and features than the native Prepar3D® versions. However, systems and procedures are the same on all platforms and this has no impact on the simulation.

Third-party GNS/GTN, radar and special transponder units are not included and are sold separately. Available from third-party vendors/developers.


Peter Stark, PC Pilot Magazine (UK, July/August 2020):
"This most recent model in the series is not a simple upgrade but a major rebuild for FSX and Prepar3D… A fun, fascinating aircraft that exposes you to the skills required by the early Lear pilots as they launched into the sky. The Xtreme Prototypes GLJ25v3 is packed with features, animations and realistic behaviour, systems and impressive innovation. This makes it a very worthy recipient of the PC Pilot Platinum Award (95/100)."


Emmanuel Blanchard, Micro Simulateur Magazine (France, April 2020):
"If we had to describe this addon in two words, we would choose: ambience and behavior. The first to characterize the perfect rendering of an airplane from the 1970’s, with its numerous analog switches, controls, steam gauges, and systems that need to be operated manually, all accompanied by visuals and sounds which pay homage to these early days of business aviation. This one is no second-generation airliner, no light airplane, no fighter jet, but a mix of the three… And this is where behavior comes into play. This aircraft has unique flight characteristics and must be dealt with accordingly. It necessitates a pilot in the cockpit!"


About version 2.0/2.1:

Peter Stark, PC Pilot Magazine (UK, January/February 2017):
"Flying the Xtreme Prototypes GLJ Model 25 SE is exhilarating! The list of updates and refinements are so extensive, it really has been built from new with a large list of features that combines high levels of visual and performance realism. Wonderful period realism that accurately reflects the pilot workload and aircraft performance while simultaneously delivering a lot of fun for the pilot.This product is highly recommended and definitely one for your hangar."

Alan Velazquez, Real-world Learjet 25D Pilot (Venezuela, May 2017):
"The most advanced, detailed and faithful classic Learjet simulation you can find! I was impressed by the flight dynamics the team at Xtreme Prototypes had developed for their unique model. In simple words, it was almost like flying the real aircraft, a quality rarely found in other Flight Simulator addons."

Emmanuel Blanchard, Micro Simulateur Magazine (France, October 2016):
"Xtreme Prototypes perfectly rendered the characteristic atmosphere on board this luxury aircraft with amazing performances. Passing the AI airliners along our path is easy and above all, we fly higher: we've conducted a few transcontinental flights at 41,000 ft. without the risk of crossing any other aicraft at this altitude. It's with real pleasure that we were able to play the VIPs at high altitude and jump from one dream destination to another."

Ray Marshall, Avsim.com (U.S.A., March 2017):
"If you are looking for an up-to-date modern design, high definition, and highly detailed Classic Learjet, you can’t do any better than this one. The closer you zoom in to the panel, the more you appreciate just how well these new 3D gauges are performing – super sharp images for my old eyes! Overall, this is one of the most detailed and complete addons that I have in my virtual hangar."

Ryan Butterworth, Avsim.com (U.S.A., August 2016):
"Love the sounds, the VC clickability/systems/operation. Enjoyed the flight model, the handling, the graphics inside and out. This is the bizjet to own guys!"

(2020-06-30) New Dynamic Light Effects for Prepar3D® v5 with Hotfix 2 - Following the release of Prepar3D® v5 with Hotfix 2, we have noticed a few issues with some of the interior/exterior dynamic light effects that were originally calibrated for Prepar3D® v5 with Hotfix 1. These new light effects will fix these issues. This affects the Prepar3D® v5 version of our GLJ Model 25 SE v3 addon only, if you have installed Prepar3D® v5 with Hotfix 2.
