Hi all, I am pssionate about the Bell 407, I aim to own one in the futer (Come on lotto) anyway, does anyone know of any FSX Bell 407's I can down load, I have on dressed up in life flight colours and its like the F 22 of the herlicopter World, vewry powerful and very fast but I want one in civilian provate ownwer colours.

If anyone knows where I can get one or if one is in the works I'd appredciate it.

Thanks
Jason

Have you gone to the Simviation download pages and used the search feature?

Downloaded and tested: It is a FS9, possibly even earlier, import, and needs a little work on the contact points and a redo of the rotor textures to work properly in FSX.

Yes I have, for some reason it and a GMAX coverted for FSX don't work at all for me, they don't even show up in the aircraft selector

(Boikat smacks himself in the head!!)

To get the supposed FSX Bell 407 to show, open the aricraft.cfg file and re-number the [fltsim.X] entries. For some stange reason they are numbered [fltsim.1], [fltsim.2], and [fltsim.3] Change that to [fltsim.0], [fltsim.1], and [fltsim.2]

Better yet, since the supposed FSX version is so sucky (IMPO), DL the 2004 version. It looks better and you don't have to mess with the aircraft.cfg sim numbers or contact points, and the rotor texture looks better (thou it still erasses background clouds and autogen buildings and trees).
