Whenever I try to use the snorkel to pick up water(both of them), I follow all the directions and yet no water is pumped up into the take, the meter stays at the same and no weight is added to the external load. Whats wrong?ThanksRyan

I did a web search for some S-51 sounds and didn't see anything. Does anyone have a recommendation on where to get some reasonably realistic sounds for this bird? I'm tired of hearing a turbine engine in a rotary piston-powered helo...thx,Dave Blevins

Hi FolksI have just uploaded my new webpage, how to make your own Helicopter Controls.URL: http://personal.nbnet.nb.ca/shanley/let me know what you think.Steve

The first Ketchikan Fly-In was a big success. Cougar Mountain Helicopters and BFU teamed up to make it a great event. Thanks to all the 'rotorheads' who turned out for the event. The fixed wingers outnumbered us, but the helicopter crowd stuck together and went roof hopping!!!We hope to see more 'rotorheads' at future fly-ins.....Three cheers to all who turned out......:-beerchug

I am a real-world SEL pilot but I have a long-expired medical with no plans to renew because of physical disability…

Well, the weather was so nice this afternoon, I decided to head down from sunny Long Island to Atlantic City for the weekend in one of the trusty Metro Helicopters Dauphins!

Does anyone out there know how to get 3rd party helicopter blades to show up during multiplayer or when used as I acft?http://forums.avsim.com/user_files/3404.jpg

Only 10 bucks each at EB Games!!!!!!

I'm tired of flying that Bell around - are there any sweet payware helicopters out there? I mean, the plane side of the game has the B-25, PSS Dash-8, All of the FSD and Dreamfleet planes...how about nice payware helicopters?

One of the first a/c I tried when I first installed Fs2k2 was the Bell Ranger

Hi everyone, Does anyone know how to get the helicopters to show up as AI? I'm also looking for partial files or any information on how it was accomplished. [email protected]

Just a 'short' flight.http://www.flightsimnetwork.com/dcforum/DC...mID8/11209.htmlCheers

PBTours is currently recruiting new rotary pilots and instructors. This is a great opportunity with chance of promotion. No rotary experience is needed, as we train all of our pilots to the highest standard. This is a great opportunity for fixed-wing pilots looking for a new experience, and to learn new skills.To sign up, visit: www.pacific-blue.cjb.net
