I just watched this, it was fantastic!! I have another question for the thread… years ago I worked in TV and had to fly in their helicopter to cover some new live remotes… they had a “Bell Jet Ranger III” if I remember right… maybe without the III, this was about 1978-1981 or so if I remember right. So what model of Bell would that be and is it available in the sim somewhere, third party I would think…but does it have a number like this one is the 206b? I LOVE helicopters I got hooked when I flew for the TV station…well I didnt fly, the pilots did, I was a passenger. Also, as a broadcast engineer, I have had to fly to mountain tops to fix transmitters. One. time with the TV helicopter we had to do an autorotation… it was an elevated helipad about 2 stories tall… we took off, got up about 500-1000 feet and suddenly beep beep beep beep… and he said HANG ON… and BAM we hit the helipad… something about the oil pressure suddenly dropped. Glad we were not up very high!!! he was an ex military pilot, I felt very safe flying with him…this was Channel 10 KOOL-TV in Phoenix :D. Ok sorry for highjacking this thread a bit lol
