Hughes OH-6 Loach

A few not terrific shots around hawaii since my fs has the annoying habit of making me have to reboot the PC......

Anyway Around Honolulu

LOL, that was also my first thought.....

Maybe the bad guys are worst these days and they got an upgrade....didn't the pilot in Magnum fly choppers in Vietnam?

The shots are great and all, Soui, but those sky/cloud textures look incredible!!

Cheers!

Yes, T.C. flew choppers in Vietnam... and Souichiro, I love your choice of choppers!  The OH-6A is my favorite mount in FS9...  still trying to get past the clouds before blades thing in FSX with it though...  

The OH-6A replaced the Bell OH-13G as the Light Observation Helicopter for the Army during the Vietnam war.  The 1st Cav Division was still using the OH-13 as late as the Ia Drang Valley campaign in '66...  I've seen pictures from the battle showing the -13 with the 9th Cav Sabers painted across the front of the bubble.  Pilots loved the OH-6, it was fast, maneuverable, and could be armed with the M-134 minigun allowing the pilot to put down some serious lead on a target.

There is a book titled "Low Level Hell" by Hugh Mills.  He was a loach pilot for the 1st infantry division, and was the pilot of Miss Clawd IV, the shark mouthed texture in the OH6 package.  I suggest it...  its a good read.

Great pics of an awesome bird!

While I like the shots, I'd also like to help you fix your FS9...What exactly happens to your FS? :-/

I found the Magnum PI chopper and Scenery on our site.... unfortately it says that the scenery will only work for FS9(i have FSX), but the chopper works in FSX....On the chopper the tail rotor doesn't move :'(. that disappointed me seeing that one. Does the tail rotor do the same on anyone elses comp?(be it FS9 or FSX)

Just wanted to let you all know.

I am pretty sure that is an FSX stock animation name problem.
You will have to contact the author, as far as I know this can not be fixed without having the source GMAX or FSDS files.
good luck!
