Upgrade -
Piasecki H-21C
"Flying Banana"
For FSX
5-1-2012

Upgrade package - requires the original release. Features include: Better initial external camera view, improved flight dynamics, improved lift at high altitude, realistic fuel consumption, and a few minor tweaks.

Pyro Lite
For FSX
v 1 - 5-30-2008

Though it lacks the top speed and many of the features found in the full version, this will give you a chance to put her through the paces and see if you want to upgrade.

Tick Mark Generator
For Gmax or 3DS Max
v 1 - 10-14-2008

This utility is for anyone who needs to create artwork for gauges. It's designed to do one thing only: Greatly speed up the hardest part of gauge creation - making those damn tick marks!

It includes 2 versions - one for the freeware Gmax r1.2, and the other for 3D Studio Max r8 or higher.

Piasecki H-21C
"Flying Banana"
For FSX
v 2 - 6-6-2007

A major upgrade from the FS9 version. New features include a virtual cockpit, custom gauges, checklist procedures from pre-flight to shutdown, new flight dynamics and audio, greatly increased detail, and more! Also includes new variations and paint schemes, including the float-equipped Vertol V-44.

Piasecki H-21C
"Flying Banana"
For FS9
v 1a - 3-29-2005

This is a slight update of the FS9 version that's on Hovercontrol and the other major sites. Here I've included a new paint job (blue and silver), and I've also added a radar altimeter and digital airspeed indicator.

Trees_FS2004_v1
For FS9
v 1 - 5-25-2005

A complete set of replacement tree textures for Microsoft Flight Sim 2004. They may also work in earlier versions; I've only tested them in 2004. These will add variety and realism to your trees, in all seasons, in all parts of the world.

Radalt_Airspeed
For FS9
v 1 - 11-18-2005

This is a digital readout that shows your AGL altitude - in feet, and your airspeed - in knots. I originally created this for the H-21C and Bell 206 panels. However, this version comes up in a scalable, resizable window, and can be added to the aircraft of your choice. Indispensable tool for chopper pilots!

Bell 206B Panel
For FS9
v 1a - 3-29-2005

An alternative to the standard panel for the default Bell 206B. It will also work fine with Owen Hewitt's version. Includes a radar altimeter and digital airspeed indicator.

Flight Plan Generator
For all FS versions
v 1 - 3-29-2005

This is an Excel spreadsheet that will also work in OpenOffice (which is freeware). It will speed up the process of manually creating flight plan files, allowing you to specify user-defined waypoints (a big plus for chopper pilots!). These will then show up in your GPS and map. If you know the coordinates, you can fly there!

Note that while you can use this with any version of MS Flight Simulator, it's not necessary for FSX - which lets you specify user-defined waypoints directly in the flight planner.

Article: Making a Collective Pitch Lever
From a Saitek X-45 Throttle
v 1a - 5-1-2008

A step by step guide. This is a relatively low cost way to get yourself a collective, and requires only a minimum of technical expertise.

BO 105 Sound Modifications
For FSX
10-21-2008

These are alternate versions of the main internal and external sound files for the Nemeth Designs BO 105 for FSX. They were created by trimming out parts of the original files that had clipping and static artifacts, resulting in a cleaner sound. Distributed with permission from Nemeth Designs.
