Too few helo clips here... the excellent February Bell Banner gives me a kick each time I open the page, so I thought I'd get one in before the month expires!

I remember seeing an Iroquois display involving hammerhead turns, and being deeply impressed.
A lot of flightsimming for me involves replicating such manoeuvres, and other things you might not want to do with the real machine.

Some of the moves look difficult and aren't all that hard to master.
Some don't, and are.
Coming into and holding a hover is hard...

Thank you Marty, I have a whole bunch of similar clips, problem was what to throw out!
I note the middle cut was archived as:
NZWB Iroquois Airsick Ride VC.avi

I'll do a follow-up with the 3-ship maybe.

Charl ! A blast from the past!

... That reminds me so much of that documentary run in the 1980s, Rodney Bryant hosting 'The South Tonite' show, this particular evening was an Iroquois doing that very similar display over Wigram base tho.

I used Deane's Huey whilst I built Wellington airport for FS2004, so stable and easy to check scales and placement of the models, a great little freebie

Charl .... just watched it again , you really cant watch withot tilting your head , this way or that.

Well bumped, Mr. 'Pin... I found the 3-ship I mentioned above!

This one really makes me feel queasy (HD + Fullscreen mandatory!)
Listen also for the rotor chatter which I find really immersive (Ain't the freeware addon world wonderful?)
