Yes. Add the aircraft to either "simobjects/airplanes" (airplanes) or "simobjects/rotocraft" (helicopters) andd the gauges, effects etc into the corresponding folerds in the root fsx folder (c:program files/microsoft games/microsoft flight simulator x)
note simobjects is in the root fsx folder

Its a case of 'try it and see'....if the helicopter was made for 2004 (and didnt use pre Fs2004 techniques, gauges etc) then it should mostly work OK.....

Problems might include: Black areas where a texture isnt working (might include cockpit glass as well...which is dumb), gauges not working, areas on the bottom of the screen not going away

The Nemeth AS350 works OK from memory
