The Classic Huey In Amazing Detail!
ifty years after it first flew it is still in production and that’s something no other helicopter can claim. The characteristic sound of the two-bladed rotor can be heard over jungles and city centers. Even though it has only one engine it is very reliable and rugged. A workhorse that’s not afraid to get dirty and will fly just as happy with a few pounds more than the manual states it can carry. It’s loved by the pilots and the crew that maintain the old airframes. It’s the Huey. The Bell UH-1 is without a doubt one of the best known helicopters to most people. It was imprinted in our culture by the moving images from the Vietnam War were it changed the face of warfare. And it never left as thousands are still flying in every corner of the world. This Huey model is certainly the best model currently available for Flight Simulator X. The panel is very functional and the helicopter is accurately shaped with high quality textures. If you are a helicopter or Huey fan, this product is certainly well worth considering.
offs Harbour is a beautiful coastal city on the northern NSW coast, with a major regional airport nestled beside the beach, and the picturesque township, harbour and marina surrounded by beautiful ranges and rural pastures. The Orbx rendition of YSCH has been made using 22cm/pixel aerial photos taken in 2008 and licensed from Coffs Harbour City Council to produce a regional airport with superb ground clarity. Additionally, lead developer John Ross has paid many visits to the airport to take photos of all the buildings, terminals and hangars within the airport precinct. The result is truly a stunning airport which is as real as being there! Product Features: Ground imagery at 30cm/pixel resolution; Buildings textured from hundreds of actual onsite photos; The entire airport precinct is modelled in high detail; GA area hangars and Aero Club modelled in high detail and superb resolution; Includes over 50 sq km of photoreal area surrounding the airport; Exquisite modelling of the nearby marina.
