It can be found on almost every well-known FS site, but after extensive flight time in that version, I have to say it isn't modeled quite how the real one is. My main issue is the rotor blades. They don't seem to be the correct length, nor are they the correct shape when not spinning. Not a significant drawback in and of itself, but I also found the repainting of the bird to be a pain.

The joints of the vertical and horizontal stabilizers, along with various other little parts have no texture map, which is very irritating when you are repainting it any other color.

Don't get me wrong! Vlad (can't-spell-his-last-name) did a great job on it, for a very difficult aircraft to create and get the FD's correct on.

But those are magnificent shots of it! You must have one helluva machine . . . Wink
