mbolan Posted September 16, 2013 Posted September 16, 2013 As a 'becoming competent' Huey operator, I just got Mi-8 and after a few zany trips, finally got stable enough to try out Mission 1 - Documents. Got near the FARP in steep foothills and lost control of my descent, to crash hard on a slope. After several rolls creating massive clouds of dust while shedding rotor blade bits, I had a pilot's view like the inside of a tumble dryer. I crunched to a shuddering halt facing downhill. More groaning noises followed by a growing and grinding acceleration down the hill on the wheels, with me pushing the brakes and attempting to steer around obstacles. Ahead in a valley, a river! The rush downhill slowed as I braked and levelled out on the river bank. Hope turned to despair as the river picked up the trashed Mi-8 body and swept it grindingly downstream. Wow! What programming is that? DCS is a flight sim, which it does brilliantly. I can now report that the crash sim is equally exciting. With underlying programming like that, the designers deserve major accolades.
