Great to have a corner where flingwings are not regarded as alien things!

Of course one will have lots of pictures to share, and here's my first contribution (of a moving picture.)
This one has a great addon soundset (R66 Sound Immersion NG for Cowansim) which often surprises with its detail.

Thank you for stopping by, Priller!
Here are some rescue mission shots of the HPG H145 in MSFS 2020, surely one of the most competent helos in flightsimming.

Aerosoft has an MSFS 2020 package which populates the North Sea with literally hundreds of landable platforms on ships and rigs.

The H145 is well equipped to service these, might take some time to discover the best locations, here's a sample from Latitude 66N

Heh... nobody but us Bots around...
Taog's Hangar Lama is so good in MSFS 20 I felt obliged to just walk around it

But it flies very convincingly, also

The Ferrari of helos!
Oceania has a disproportionate amount of Hughes/MD500 variants

Headed out of Libby AAF for some low-level flights along the "Fence".

Nice... interesting to see an AS350, you'd be expecting them to fly Bell 206 or maybe 407?

 

[Victory103]

Better performance over the 206, and the 407 was probably too expensive. All the OH-6 and B212s are gone as well.

MH60: Many many scenarios

Twenty plus years ago: UVA's PEGASUS drops off a patient at the hospital ER pad and returns to home base at Charlottesville-Albemarle Airport (KCHO). Today, there is an eight-story addition with two rooftop pads where the old pad used to be, with the ER occupying the bottom floor.

Hamilton Island off the east coast of Australia is a playground for well-heeled visitors from nearby Queensland and beyond.



A helicopter is the best way to escape the cruise ships and buzzy holiday scene, out to the great Barrier Reef. You can also break the journey at picturesque spots en route.



And out on the reef there are suitable helistops where you can enjoy a private explore and relax, or go full on to the glass-bottom boats and submarine adventure.

You can spend time with Miltech's CH47D... great model.
Here we are moving Stuff around.
This requires you to fly directly over the chosen object at a specified height, and hover there for four seconds.
Then the slings will attach.
Sounds easy, right?
You should not be hasty or anxious about this, it will become ever harder then.

Back in Australia... the Sydney - Hobart Regatta is about to get underway.
How to get front-row seats for me and 7 mates?
Well, the Bell 429 handily fits the bill.

Departing Sydney's YSSY we will head over the city to where the action is



Organisers and CASA will not let us fly over the course, but now for the trump card: being members of the Sydney Seaplanes organisation, we get to park on their lawn.
Beers are on the house and we settle on the deck as the flotilla assembles.
Soon they will scramble to be first around The Heads and on their way.



Next stop: New York.
