To celebrate its long-overdue entry into my collection of Russian helos, I decided to play a little "Havoc" on Novosibirsk.
With a tank full of fuel and a belly full of vodka, I waved goodbye to the crowd of airliners as I began my mischief.
I thought I'd give the residents of Novosibirsk a little scare. An attack helo speeding towards you would make you jump, no?
The VC on this birdie is extremely well done, though sadly the gunner's position is absent.
During my jaunt, I came near the vicinity of Severny Airport, and decided to give the local pilots an impromptu airshow.
After I'd finished making sure nobody's pants were dry, I turned and headed back to base.
And now to find a way to explain my actions to a very upset base commander...
In all, I have to say that the chaps at Alphasim have done a cracking job with this one. It's fast, manoeuvrable, sexy, and easily one of the most fun choppers I've ever flown. I highly recommend it to anyone interested in helicopters, Russian aircraft, or just looking for a fun craft to throw around.
