Great shots Chuck. :)

It may just be my joystick settings, but it is the most difficult to fly helo in my hangar. Have not had time to experiment yet.

If God intended aircraft engines to have horizontally opposed engines, Pratt and Whitney would have made them that way.

Thanks Larry.......I've only flown the floats version.....it seemed pretty docile to me. It doesn't slow down easily.......I over shot the first time I tried to land. With a little practice though, I like it :)

Wow...well done on that set Chuck... ;)

Somehow Chuck I just can't see myself flying something with a million moving parts all flying in unison looking for a place to have an accident... ;D

Just kidding Chuck... ;)

I can't remember where I heard it but, a favorite quote of mine goes as follows..."If the wings are moving faster than the fuselage, then it must be a helicopter....and therefore unsafe" ;D ;D ;D

Glad you like it Chuck. It took a few months to finish off the source files it was based on, but it was all worth it, since it has over 2,700 downloads combined on simv, flightsim, and avsim!  :o

For new users, it can be a challenge to fly, but it takes some practice. Once you learn the handling characteristics, it is very possible to do a controlled flight.  ;D

I went outside once. The graphics weren't all that great.

Burn the land and boil the sea, you can't take the sky from me.
