Black Friday is still running and I would like to find out if there is something great to buy, the tips are welcome! I already have the following add-ons:
Jeppeson2001 Victoria Falls - Brilliant, many nice heliports/helipads with buildings and other objects, the spraying falls are great with objects like Benji jumps, beautiful and challenging canyon run and animal groups like hippos, rhinos, elephants, zepras, lions etc, I just love this one!
Miltech Simulations Amphibious Ready Group - Very good, nice to practice landings to ships and extra points for possibility to add the group to one favorite location (in my case front of Helsinki).
ORBX Landmarks London City – Very good, full of interesting buildings and It’s just nice to hoover around and watch them.
Aerosoft Offshore Landmarks North Sea – Very good with endless helipads and ships, a lot to do but a bit monotonic.
ORBX Helipads LA Medical – Good, many helipads in nice city environment, good for jumping between the helipads.
ORBX Helipads LA Police – Good, similar than LA Medical.
Jeppeson2001 Niagara Falls – Acceptable, a bit disappointment, the falls and buildings are great, but only one heliport and not that much to do after some runs.
Think you pretty much have all the main Payware specifically focussed on helicopter shenanigans.
You have definitely missed mentioning all the utterly awesome Cli4D stuff though! That is so awesome for helicopters.
Manilla Bay (free)
El Nido
Philippines tropical adventure
Bora Bora
There is this Maasai Mara pack by iniScene and it’s free (from their store so you need an account) but it’s pretty neat with a lot of little tight spots to get in to.
There is a load of great freeware on .to I’m sure you’re aware of.
Well, you CAN land anywhere you like with a helicopter lol. But yea I know what you mean…
Can’t think of anything else but if there is I’ll get it too haha
EDIT: ah, there is the Reef World but it’s pretty small with not really much of interest after you seen it once and it’s a bit of a flight over nothing to reach it.
Also Okavango Delta by SWS has a few and more sight-seeing-y
Yea you won’t regret the price of Cli4D’s more recent foray into paid scenery. It’s all marvellous and covers a huge area with tons of cute details to discover.
I really like the Okavango, I often fly there with the Zenith 701 STOL, finding herds of animals with spaces barely big enough to land and then taxiing up close to get a better look. Most of them animate when you get close enough, even the stationary ones.
It’s good with a heli or a float plane too. And some nice safari lodges to visit.
For heli action have you considered the HPG action packs? Tailor made for sure, and on sale now with their helis.
Since you already have Helipads LA Medical and Helipads LA Police, I would add USA modern cities vol.1. It brings a real visual improvment on dowtown LA buildings (all with helipads), Hollywood sign, …
Xbox X here. I’ve got pretty much all of these (really love ARG and the LA packs - I would also suggest DD Chicago Landmarks) but, does anyone know if someone is working on a pack similar to Aerosoft’s Offshore but focused on Gulf of Mexico oil platforms? That would be a day one buy for me.
