I am back on the glaciers too with my Aerosoft Huey!!!

Doing the heli runs again in real time weather... Too much snow last night and 40kts winds on the peaks.

HI Nikaslan,
....Hope you have lot`s of fun there... There`s often blowing strong winds with realtime weather.
...I think the highest I ever recognized were nearly 55 kts... ;D ...lost completly tailrotor authority on transition from cruise to hover..
..The only thing I was able to do was getting speed and leaving the scene down to stewart ..... 8)

Yes, too much fun!!  ;D

Especially trying to land the Huey (using HTR at 100%) on those tiny wooden helipads with 40 kts winds...

I almost didn't have to use the anti-torque pedals, the heli was stabilized by the wind alone!!!  :o

Very nice pictures, Nikaslan!
....the lots of helipads in the CIRP package makes it a beautiful playground for the whirlybirds!...

I also uste HTR (100%) with my choppers. Great tool!....makes flying choppers in FSX a real beautiful! :)
I think, I saw you doing some HTR configs on Hovercontrol? Is it you?

Yes, corbu, I have done these HTR profiles and enjoyed it immensely!!
I am still refining them, especially the Cera 222b one.

The only heli that cannot be improved by HTR is the Dodo. Every other chopper can get way more realistic with HTR.. But a lot depends on the quality of the profile itself.

Yes, there are a lot of parameters inside HTR possible to tweak.
I also did a few configs (MBB BO105, MD500 with Scott Swanberg and Fred Naar, tweaked the CERA 412).
....but it`s great fun tweaking it.....and finally in th end you get much more fun flying the whirlybirds :)

Here are some screenies of my CIRP workhorse! ;D

Cerasim Bell212 with a repaint converted from Gary Moore`s excellent repaint of the default Bell206.
I loved Gary`s polarbear so much, I wanted to have on my 212! :)

Far away from being perfect, but it was my first attempt doing a paint job in FSX, and it was a nice experience.
Many, many thanks to Gary Moore for giving me permission converting his great repaint. :)

Hi Klaus,

It's looks fantastic Klaus! I certainly hope it ends up on the download page where it belongs!

Great looking repaint Klaus!   I don't have the heli but I can surely admire a good bit of work here.

Thanks All!!!
I´m very glad you like it! As said the original design is from Gary`s CIRP Bell206!

Corbu, really nice job with the bear on the 212!!

I finished my CIRP tour with the default 206 (with the bear) and then got down for a day off at the lodge with my new 222B. Man, what a heli!!

Then back to PAKT in a nice IFR flight with the Turbine Duke.

"Hey girls, do you like my Duke? Are you in for a ride?"
"Who let the dog in the pool???!!!"

Thanks Nakaslan,
I wanted Gary`s beautiful polarbear an my 212...it`s a real eye-catcher.

I also have the Cera Bell222. Yes, it´s a great heli....I love it,too!

Well, it's really not my "polarbear", not even my idea actually. I think it was Reggy that came up with that :) and it looks best on your 212 anyway!
Looking forward to seeing it on your Bell 222!
