Leonardo Helicopters

I <3 Helis · February 7, 2025 at 9:05 PM

For the next helicopter in the sim, I think it would make the most sense to add AW109, AW139, or AW169. These are fast, corporate helicopters with retractable gear and luxurious interiors. This would be a nice addition, since we don't really have a luxurious helicopter with retractable gear. The EC135 is a utility helicopter, but I would like to see these Leonardo helicopters. I wonder if IPACS is working on a helicopter in secret like the BlackHawk 😜

Thoughts on this?

I really wish not just ipacs but also forum users would take more notice of the beauty and joy of flying helicopters. There’s so many opportunities to make this sim more diverse in the aircraft area. I think having more helis would just add to a more enjoyable and different experience for people flying because as you know the current helis all fly differently and pose their own challenges so havening some more I think would just make flying helis so much more enjoyable.

I would like to see:

AW109

AW101

Bell429

Uh1 Huey

And an aw189

These aircraft could mean for more Ga roleplay and leisure flying in game as opposed to the military type aircraft we already have like the uh-60 for example.

Anyways if you’ve read this far thank you and a response would be appreciated

I agree and Aerofly definitely has the best helicopter flight dynamics of any mobile sim so this is where they could really benefit from expanding. Loft dynamics uses the Aerofly engine for their VR FAA certified motion rig which is a testament to the helicopter physics Aerofly is capable of. The scenery is also really good for GA VFR flying which is why I believe helicopters should be more focused on after the A350.
