FS2004 SUD OUEST SO-1221 DJINN - version 2
===========================================
Version 2 of the Sud Ouest Djinn with sound updates. Includes startup, shutdown, low and high rotor blade pitch sound.
History:
--------
The Djinn was the world's first production helicopter to make use of the 'cold jet' principle of propulsion. The term 'cold jet' indicates simply that compressed air from the gas turbine engine is ducted through channels inside the rotor blades and expelled through nozzles at their tips. The first of which made its maiden flight on 2 January 1953. In the Djinn, torque reaction was offset by a turbine jet deflector mounted at the tail, which could be rotated to act as a rudder as well.
The Djinn was used in several countries and served as an agricultural helicopter and crop dusting.
