CH-37 :This would be interesting in FSX

Thought that looked familiar. It's at the Ft Rucker Aviation Museum. They have a lot of interesting airframes there that would be nice rendered in FSX. Unfortunately the website doesn't have any photos, though they do have a text listing.
 
There used to be one rotting away on KILG. It was painted red, white and blue. I think it said Keystone Helicopter on it. I thought the American Helicopter Museum got it, but can't find it on their website.
 
My most memorable mental image of this bird is a photo in my Dad's 173rd ABN yearbook from RVN, which he had used to sandwich a photo of a CH-37 which he stated had, "landed short..." He did not want to worry my Mom further by truthfully stating the bird had been shot down...:kilroy:

That would be the Boeing 360 Demonstrator from the late eighties, the American Helicopter Museum does indeed have it in their collection. Look up N360BV

I've got pics of that too. Somewhere. The CH-37 was more of a birds nest than anything else. It was between Dawn Aeronautics and runway 32-14. I'll have to dig out the pics and scan them in.
 
I completely agree. I've wanted one of these for a long time. I would also like a good plastic model kit of it; though someone did make one not so long ago, but it wasn't one of the prime kit makers.
