Classic British Flight Sim

Hate to blow this totally out of the water for you Chris, but it's 100% real. You may think that it stinks of model, but the film was taken in the 1970s and I have seen the sequence on a VHS tape in the early 1990s that came from MBB direct and was a transfer from film of the original. It was part of a sales ad trying to sell a "cheaper attack and transport helicopter" to Western nations that Bell and Hughes were trying to sell AH-64s & UH-1s to. MBB's pitch was something along the lines of "why buy two when you can get both a highly maneuverable attack helicopter and light transport all-in-one?"

Either way, in the late 1970s, R/C helicopters didn't exist yet anyway, much less to that kind of accuracy.

That's how I understood it.......a manufacturers publicity/sales film.
