content_pasteOne of my wobbly test flights!
In the default Bell 205B helicopter, taking a sedate flight over the strip in Vegas. Landmark areas of scenery such as this received particular attention by the developers and they pushed the software and hardware of the day to the limits to achieve this amount of detail. Compare this to the same flight in FS2002
content_pasteMy second attempt at mission 4. The first was a series of disasters! I opened the left side door and couldn't close it. Flew the golf course tour with the door open, which eventually shook the chopper to pieces. By that time my nerves were so frazzled I couldn't land. At all. This time it was peachy keen and done in one 38 minute take, though I still managed to over-torque the machine. Hopefully he won't notice.

content_pastePracticing the noble art of tree circling. (There's probably a proper name for it).
BTW that's the best modelled tree I've seen yet in 32 years of flight simming!
