Introducing the Retribution Stratus Jetstream Airship.
The Stratus Jetstream Airship was designed to be a stable, comfortable and easy to fly airship, ideal for long-haul flights across SL mainland, and the perfect platform for scenic tours in areas such as the Blakes Sea and environs.
Made primarily from mesh, the Stratus Jetstream passes smoothly across Sim borders, is highly responsive, and has a raft of features that will make cruising the SL skies a pleasure - including:
* Dynamic Cameras integrated into HUD
* Moor/Tether mode
* Eject function
* Turbo mode (Orb avoidance function)
* Guest/Co-pilot HUD
* Altitude/Heading/Speed indicators on HUD
* Low prim for excellent stability
This is a very pleasant craft to fly. Dynamic camera settings make it easy to land accurately, and Turbo mode will enable you to easily avoid short-fuse orb security systems. This airship will often fly in inclement conditions that defeat fixed-wing aircraft.
The cabin is designed for excellent visibility, making it ideal for touring and scenic uses.
The HUD features a virtual yoke, allowing full control of the airship, or you can use the keyboard, or a combination of both.
Livery can be changed via script, and texture templates are provided, allowing you to fully customize the airbag.

great'
this is indeed the best blimp out there easy control great flight !
very nice
what to say...: it's amazing!
Easy to fly, easy to change textures, low low prims usage, very smooth sim-crossing with a stability that puts any other vehicle to shame (all manufacturers, even the most famous ones, should take a leaf out of Mick's book), low price... what do you want more than this?
Outstanding!
I was a bit apprehensive about buying this but what the heck! I use this model for my Fish N Chips Airship tours and I will say very easy to control and maneuver. I love the fact that I could mod the textures so I could personalize to my tour business and made it mine. The only draw back that could find is the seating , if someone got dumped at a region crossing, most vehicles you can just fly and catch up, cam in and sit and still get to enjoy the ride. Also if the driver crashed the ship comes to a standstill if passagers are in it but the crashed pilot can't get their driver seat back, they have to drive in some other seat the system gives them randomly, which in turn makes the cam function in the HUD useless. I wold prefer a independent seating system that does not link all the seating together, that way riders can get their seat back after crashing. I have tested this several times to confirm the seating issue. I would love to work with the creator to get a seating system that would work much better. Other than that, I am very impressed and very happy with the airship.
don't buy this, waste of money
works like crap, constant script errors. send me an IM and join my group BETTER BUSINESS BUREAU OF SL. this gets -100 stars.
Amazing Aircraft!
This is both fun and a lot relaxing to cruise around in with friends or alone.
I enjoy it a lot! It was a blind buy, but since i have the Dragonfly and Mayfly, i know i was getting quality, and i was not disappointed at all. The details and quality is amazing!
Highly recommended!
10/10 and thank you for making this great Airship!
YEAH, erstklassiges Luftschiff
Dieses Luftschiff macht Spaß. Es lässt sich leicht steuern, auch dank der dynamischen Kamera. Das Simcrossing geht flott, und es ist auch genügend Platz für Passagiere. Ich kann dieses Luftschiff nur empfehlen.
This airship is great fun. It can be easily steered, also thanks to the dynamic camera. The Simcrossing goes quickly, and it is also enough place for 5 passengers. I can only recommend this airship.
