Since we know that IF supplies flightradar24 with aircraft models, does this mean that we may be getting helicopters? 🤔 Just a thought

[swervyy]

Agreed :)

Making a model of a helicopter for FlightRadar24 and actually having an operational helicopter in Infinite Flight are totally different things. IF doesn’t have the physics for helicopters, which are entirely different then fixed wing aircraft.

Not to mention it could very well be the model made by FR24 themselves.

Airbus Helicopters H135 (Eurocopter EC135)

[image] Credit: Clemens Vasters The Airbus Helicopters H135, better known as the Eurocopter EC135, is a twin-engine utility helicopter that entered service in 1996. Being developed alongside the EC145, they share components in the forward cockpit section. It’s well known for serving several purposes such as medical help, search and rescue, police surveilance, military aviation, private aviation and tours. With it being widely used all over the world, I think it would be the perfect helicopter…

Great Barrier Reef Helicopters Bell 206

Again I’m not too sure if I’m allowed to request helicopters but here I go (of course they wouldn’t be added anytime soon, but just as a thought for later). The Bell 206 is a popular model of helicopters used by many operators around the world. Below is the ‘Great Barrier Reef Helicopters’ livery, one in the fleet of helicopters that operate scenic tours around the Great Barrier Reef, off the upper east coast of Australia. [image]

Bell Boeing V-22 Osprey

Bell Boeing V-22 Osprey Series [image] Photo taken by Kevin Schaaser via JetPhotos.com The Bell Boeing V-22 Osprey series is a military used Helicopter/Aircraft. What makes this “helicopter” so different is the rotors tilt to turn the helicopter into a aircraft. The Osprey can do a straight vertical take-off with a max V/S of +3,160 feet per minute! That is insane! This is only used in military service and is still in service today. There were about 215 Ospreys made and is manufactured by …

Or you can still create your specific one!
