Overview

Mick Posch’s complete FSX package includes two versions of the “Flying Banana”: the Piasecki H-21C and a Vertol V-44 fitted with floats. Seven textures are supplied. This release was updated on 15 February 2012.

The H-21 belongs to the early-1950s generation of tandem-rotor transport helicopters. The family was also known as the Shawnee and Workhorse, while its curved fuselage explains the Flying Banana nickname. The float-equipped option offers another configuration of this distinctive design.

Transition from hovering to aeroplane flight with tilting nacelles. Use the virtual cockpit; the autopilot is available only with the nacelles at 0°.

Two radars, a helmet display and auto-hover expand the cockpit’s functions. All three fuel tanks must contain fuel before the helicopter will start.
