Dreamwings Design is developer of many regional aircraft for FS2004. Their Embraer ERJ-135/140/145 series are simple but frame rate friendly aircraft. All usual animations are present plus opening doors. There are no panel, virtual cockpit or engine sounds included. Various models are available: the ERJ-135, 140, 145 and the 145XR, plus models with air stair or sliding door. The rudder effect and landing gear animations are all ok, but the flight dynamics are not very easy. It is difficult to keep a constant decent rate on approach.
