Have you gone to the Simviation download pages and used the search feature?

Yes I have, for some reason it and a GMAX coverted for FSX don't work at all for me, they don't even show up in the aircraft selector

(Boikat smacks himself in the head!!)

To get the supposed FSX Bell 407 to show, open the aricraft.cfg file and re-number the [fltsim.X] entries.  For some stange reason they are numbered [fltsim.1], [fltsim.2], and [fltsim.3]  Change that to [fltsim.0], [fltsim.1], and [fltsim.2]

Better yet, since the supposed FSX version is so sucky (IMPO), DL the 2004 version.  It looks better and you don't have to mess with the aircraft.cfg sim numbers or contact points, and the rotor texture looks better (thou it still erasses background clouds and autogen buildings and trees).
