Classic British Flight Sim

There is a very nice re-working of Jordan Moore's Bell 412 at Hovercrontrol now. It's the Agusta with 12 (mainly) European versions and includes 2 Griffons of the RAF. It seems that the model has been worked over as it is easier onthe PC than the original too.

Only drawback is a 60 meg download :o

Thanks for the HU, downloading now.

This has to be one of the best non payware a/c I have ever flown in flightsim, looking forward to flying the RAF varient!

Many thanks for the HU Trev. Though a Big download at 65Mb!! :o

Just tried it and forgot how difficult it is to fly helicopters even though this one appears to be more forgiving. Absolutely wonderful, the cockpit in 3D is a pleasure to use, a lot of hard work has gone into this.

would have been nice if there was a FSX version instead of havin to put it over my self...

Thanks for the HU Trev.
my first new add on this Year!
what else will 2008 bring? will FS11.......... oh never mind

Chris i have been a member at hovercontrol going on 3 plus years mate and Jordan Moore and the rest of the developers are a talented bunch and i am sure there is a FSX version under their downloads section over there...... ;-)

Techy thats the Bell 412, its this Agusta bell version i would like for FSX...

I am pretty sure that this has been done by others using the source code from Hovercontrol. There is not a great deal of difference on some models, I would have a go at mixing the two.

I have to say that after installing this and having many difficulties starting the engines (couldn't find any documentation), I finally got it into the air...Several times briefly. I couldn't believe that my helicopter flying had got that rusty!

Anyway I loaded Rick's wonderful Sycamore and flew with pleasing precision, while recording the flight, for 45 minutes...Absolutely wonderful!

I'm afraid the new download of 60 MBs went straight into the bin :brick:

Peter, you need to have the original Hovercontrol Bell 412 installed for the documentation. It has the startup checklists and other information needed to fly the AB412 addon.
