Just a test flight, there have been updates to the sim and H145, thought I'd take a look.

Wow..... number 1 is a standout, but number not 6 is also superb...nice sharp silhouette details.

:hesaid:

Tauranga's new rescue chopper is an H145 ...wonder if that scheme will pop up somewhere...

The cockpit panel is beautiful

What mountains were you flying over?

Aharon that is a flight along the Buller Gorge, West Coast South Island.
Paul: Would that be the ex-Otago one? I have that and a trio of other NZ liveries, good to see painter interest in this bird.
Eagle-eyed Marty: the sim allows you to set manual focus for screenshots. #1 was set to 5m or thereabouts.
So the door rivets are sharp, but the fenestron is already a bit fuzzy.

Feels a bit like a photoshoot, this sim.
And it's an incredible model, with many variants and mission packs etc etc.
I do not do it justice, I can barely figure out how to install the basepack update, never mind set waypoints to the accident scene and drive the winch :unsure:
In fact, the panel shot above will reveal that the Main Gearbox Warning is showing.
One should then carry out maintenance work as a priority: I just change aircraft...flightsim has room for us all.

The detail and texturing quality is superb. Stitching on the seats and the scratches and dings on the second to last shot.
