Just Flight - RJ Professional MSFS

Following the release of MSFS 2024 Just Flight will release a free compatibility update to all owners of the RJ Professional. The update will be made available as soon as possible once the RJ Professional has been fully tested in the release version of MSFS 2024.

Following on from their hugely popular 146 Professional for MSFS, Just Flight's in-house development team has created a high fidelity simulation of Britain’s last airliner, the RJ Professional.

RJ Professional brings you all three variants of the RJ family: the RJ70, RJ85 and RJ100. Each variant is fully custom-coded and created using comprehensive, hands-on research with a real world aircraft, RJ-100 SE-RJI. Over 25 high quality liveries represent the vast number of RJ operators from all around the world.

The RJ was developed in the 1980s and 1990s and first took to the air in 1992. The main goal of the RJ was to succeed the 146 regional jets, many of which were still flying in their original analogue cockpit configurations and without sophisticated autopilot or navigation systems. This, along with newer and more modern regional jets from other manufacturers, meant that it was beginning to prove difficult for airlines to operate the 146 in the modern-day aviation environment and a new aircraft was required.

The RJ and the 146 both share the same type rating; there are, therefore, a lot of similarities in the operating philosophies between the two aircraft. A true mix of retro and modern and a really quirky aircraft to study and to fly! What are the differences between the 146 Professional and the RJ Professional? See all the details here!
