Just rediscovered helicopters on FS9, EC135 by Fay and Richter is really nice. Beautiful externals and flies well w/ TIR, joystick and pedals (FD realism=70%).Wish there was a PMDG/LDS-class cockpit/avionics/VC modeling for helicopters. Looks like the Aerosoft Seahawk is the 'state of the art' for payware helicopter according to some people here.Anyway, ES135 is excellent. Looks and sounds like the real thing that flies around here for real.PatAMD A64 4000+ @ 2.6GHz, Zalman7700Cu cooler, Corsair XMS 1GB DDR, LTK6800GT-OC, Asus A8V MoBo, WDRaptorHDD, TrackIR4, CH FSYoke+TQ+peds, Eclipse RED KB, XP-hsp2

You think that one is nice, check out the nemeth EC-120B, the VC is amazing. If you are into systems, the dodosim 206 is for you http://www.dodosim.com/Regards, MichaelKDFWhttp://www.calvirair.com/mcpics/mcdcvabanner.jpgCalVirAir International

Thanks Michael. EC120 is amazing. It's amusing to chase AI.http://forums.avsim.net/user_files/148823.jpgW/ realism at 99%, getting a hang of hover and landing. Now only if we had a EC135 update w/ similar VC....

Now>only if we had a EC135 update w/ similar VC.... Exactly Pat! If you like military or Coast Guard ops, the Aerosoft Seahawk has an amazing VC as well.BTW the Nemeth bros are working on a Sikorsky S-76, should be pretty sweet if anything like the EC-120.From your forum name I assume you live in Dallas?Regards, MichaelKDFWhttp://www.calvirair.com/mcpics/mcdcvabanner.jpgCalVirAir International

Michael,S76 would be nice. Not sure if I should get the payware version of EC120 (cheap), I would also like to give the Seahawk a try so I'll need to ask the boss about it.Love flying the heavies (PMDG744p/f, LDS763) but it's fun to learn helicopters.Yeah, stuck in Dallas.PatAMD A64 4000+ @ 2.6GHz, Zalman7700Cu cooler, Corsair XMS 1GB DDR, LTK6800GT-OC, Asus A8V MoBo, WDRaptorHDD, TrackIR4, CH FSYoke+TQ+peds, Eclipse RED KB, XP-hsp2
