Microsoft was present at FlightSimExpo for the first time this year and I got to sit down and clarify a few things that have been confusing the community – or just worrying them.
Microsoft will be releasing the 40th Anniversary Edition of the sim in November and with that, the sim will finally support helicopters. I have had the chance to sit down with Jorg Neumann, Head of Microsoft Flight Simulator and ask him a bit more about what helicopter fans can expect now and in the future.
The upcoming SA-315B for X-Plane is causing a few heads to turn as Philip Ubben and Khamsin Studio show their work with the little helicopter. Curious about the project, I had a "virtual sitdown" with Philip about it to learn more about it.
I still consider ARMA 3 to have a lot of potential that is not being harvested. This project shows a bit of what we are losing on milsims right now.
For a long time, our community has been suffering from the lack of solutions and good sims. But we have been seeing improvements on the old sims and even new ones such as Airland and now also “Helicopter Simulator”.
In this first installment of a new section of our website, Bradley takes a look at a scenery that he describes as a “freeware with an easter egg for rotor heads”.
She’s no longer a helicopter pilot at the moment but Jamie Collazo is the perfect example of someone that followed the dream of flying helicopters – and worked hard to do it.
If the name rings a bell, it should. Jeff is one of the writers here at HeliSimmer.com. A great writer, that ended up as a Military Pilot. And one that I am lucky to call a virtual friend.
A sort of a YouTube star, Mischa Gelb, known by the community as Pilot Yellow, quickly became one of the favorite helicopter pilots on the internet.
Claude Vuichard is one a names that pretty much everyone in the helicopter industry recognizes, with an amazing career and over 16,000 hours in the skies.
