I took advantage of Nemeth's December sale and picked up the Eurocopter AS350 Ecureuil (Squirrel) and the expansion pack which adds some variants including this sprayer configuration.

Lets go spray somethin'!

Click Me!!

then view

Scarin' up the cows. Look how scared they look Wink

Headed down to the river to spray for skeeters....

Die mosquitos....die!

Circlin' around to land at Longview Ranch.

Time to get me some fuel and a sandwich.

Now I'm off to land on top of Mt. Everest Cheesy

Thanks 4 looking

Sunward I've climbed and joined the tumbling mirth of sun split clouds.....and done a hundred things you have never dreamed of.....wheeled and soared and swung high in the sunlit silence. Hovering there, I've chased the shouting wind along and flung my eager craft through footless halls of air.

Up, up the long, delerious, burning blue I've topped the wind swept heights with easy grace where never Lark, nor even Eagle flew. While with silent lifting of mind I've trod the high untrespassed sanctity of space, put out my hand and touched the face of god"

Thanks guys

There won't be any Everest landing........I can't even get it to leave the ground at base camp around 17000 ft ASL Angry

I understand FSX has its limitations, but 17000 ft??? The flight dynamics in my opinion were copied from a lopsided brick. I know that Nemeth has released a patch to make the helicopter behave more like the default B206 rather than the default EH101. Really? for the price it seems like we'd get a completely custom set of flight dynamics. And this after the AW109's horrible flight dynamics which were patched several times and in my opinion still flies like crap Sad

I switched the air. files out for something a bit more to my liking (Huey X for the AS350 and JayhawkX for the AW109)). I know it's not the same, but it beats flying a brick Wink

Other than that it's beautiful, I especially like the sprayer model. I do wish however that the spray effect looked more like chemical dispersant than smoke

EDIT

After swapping out air. files it's a bit more powerful at altitude:
