Microsoft Flight Simulator 2002

Bell 206B JetRanger

❝

More than 6,000 JetRangers are flying worldwide in roles as diverse as corporate transportation, police surveillance, and United States Army aviation training.

The series has flown over 26 million flight hours, and a few JetRangers are flying with more than 30,000 hours on their airframes.

The strip is pretty busy.

The virtual cockpit dials are functional. You can actually read them in flight! Siegfried and Roy are still playing in 2002.
