Poll : Your next most needed FSX Helicopter

I would like to see more piston based helicopters, like the early Bell's, or Sikorsky H-5 Dragonfly, or the Kaman HH-43 Huskie,( or as they were better known by the crews "Pedros"), as previously mentioned.
It's fun to shut off the governor and 'roll the throttle' on the Piston based helicopters in FSX.
Seems like a more accurate way to operate as well, least to me anyway.
 
How about the Lakota that the Army is testing!

Lakota is literally a civvy EC-145 painted green, so if anyone makes an EC-145 that will be good to go with a paintkit. But, if someone made a UH-72 Lakota, then you could make it into an EC-145 with the paintkit. 6 of one, half dozen of another!
The Lakota can be covered by an EC-145 that is released with a medical interior, passenger interior, AND since they are going to use them in the RAID capacity you can put a Police package with a FLIR and spotlight. I wouldn't mind seeing that one bit.

BUT, I still want to see a nice set of AH-1's, G, S, and J/T models would be sweet. I still like choppers that can blow stuff up!
 
I spotted an FSX'd EC145 on a French site. The exterior,at least, appeared to be almost finalised.

Also,Icaro will be releasing an FSX EC135 in the not too distant future.

come to think of it

we are lacking some decent big heavy russian transports like the hips, oh how i miss the old school nemeth products
 
Any of the following in high-quality would be nice:

1. HH-52 Seaguard....apparently MAAM or someone associated with them was making it. Don't know what happened....

2. Along Jeansy's lines....some sort of Russian transport. Mi-2, 6, 8, 17......any of those would be great!(Really want a Ka-60!)
Maybe the Nemeths will update some of their Russian aircraft one day.

3. Proper Cera/Nemeth level Eurocopter AS365 Dauphin II.

4. Aerospatiale AS341 Gazelle. Cyril Pioffet (creator of the 2002/4 version) was making one, but it looks like that project died. No news for a few years.

5. Kaman K-Max.

6. RAH-66 Comanche (yes, the real program was canceled, but it's still a neat helicopter!)
 
a FSX native Sikorsky/Agusta HH3F Pelican would be my favourite

Heres one I was doing behind the scenes when working commercially, sadly no takers so consigned to the bin long ago to clear HD space, might still have a rusty copy on a CD somewhere.
 
I must admit the engine casing is one of my better meshes, I haven't decided what to do with it yet, nor the couple of other meshes I've decided to keep. I haven't touched FS or Max for months, probably most of this year truth be told.

I just looked at the date stamp on the Lynx renders, they're three years old, gosh doesn't time fly, I'd have sworn it was early last year I last poked it. The majority of the other meshes are lost or deleted over time, unless by some quirk they turn up on a CD, which I gave up as a back up medium years ago LOL.

Not really sure about adoption, historicaly thats fraught with issues, payware, well I'm a little disgruntled with the industry right now and some of its goings on and characters, still my interest in the hobby is cyclic, last time I went walkabout for 20 months or so and then came back for three years :).
