helis.....

<< < (3/5) > >>

EHM-0948 Bruno:
Hi again,

In my personal opinion i think that Euroharmony should have a timetable for helicopters.

About the sceneries, there isn't any need to have special sceneries, because if we use helicopters that can move (on ground), then they must follow the ground rules of any aircraft. That means, they should go via the taxiway to the runway and then take-off (of course more vertically than the planes ;) ).
The landing mode is done again on the landing runway, and after that, we move the heli to the taxiway for gates (or heli gate).

In a first approach, we could create just 10 flights per Hub just to get the feeling about how many pilots would try to fly them... Regional Flights.
If we look that there are many PIREP's about it, then we improve and upgrade our timetable, and, if a near future grab one or two more helis to our fleet :).

Of course this is just a personal thought... nothing more than that.

Regards,

Well, here is the humble opinion of Razza.

Helicopters could bee implemented into a small division named, EuroXXXX, Obviously the XXXX is there as we don't have a name for this.  

Here are some ideas for opperations

1. We could use helicopters as a VFA plane that operates sightseeing tours, special missions around Europe I volunteer to make!

2. Rescue Missions, http://www.avsim.com offers many sceneries for downed ships, accidents and emergencies.

3. Just fun flying. People who love helicopters for just general flying, exploring places and also visiting remote places, I.E ski resorts.

Even if this is a bit premature, my suggestions for the fleet would be a EuroCopter EC120 colbri, Aerospatiale AS350 and also the Default FS Bell 206

With "support it" you mean you'd keep the model, panels and files up to date,
create a repaint for it and always be on look out for a better version that better
fits the airline needs for this and at least the next two years to come?

I would do all of this except the repaints. I would be quite happy to do the rest.

I remember we had the Augusta and the Eurocopter among a few others I cant remember of, as for the flights, I think Bruno's idea of a few regional flights operating from the Hub's just to try it out would be possibly best. About the tours... could try it out but it would have to be very short distance... Scotland?:P

Manu, I know its a lot of work!!! I dont know how to repaint planes though... As for the timetables and models, I would love working on those with Razza if he wants.

I'm going to start searching for models, but I think some management authorization is needed to know if this is actually going to be implemented or not...
