i was flying round in the AvHistory ME 262, and i was blowing the heck out of an airfield with rockets.
i was getting annoyed at the relatively short passes any plane can make.
so i decided to land, and taxi round blowing the heck out of the airfield.
but i kept dieing.
so i though, wouldn't it be cool to have a helicopter.

so, is there any CFS3 helicopters around?

if not, can someone make one please?

thanks

I don't think there are any around. Also I very much doubt whether they'd actually be possible in CFS3. The flight dynamics are very much based around fixed wing aircraft.

I read somewhere (possibly and probably the interweb) that the CFS3 engine cannot handle the flight dynamics of blimps and helicopters. ;)

They can be faked; blimps/zep much better the helicopters.  There is a zep done for the WWI packages that was pretty sucessful. Most of the choppers I tried were not very good.
