The official Microprose patch fixes quite a few things, and also allows you
to customize the flight models of the various aircraft. Example:

[ApacheFlightModel] // block for helo to modify
Ycg= -0.03 // effects amount of restoring torque from roll
YawDrag= 5.0 // yaw rate dampening factor
TailRotorForce= 0.15 // side force from tail rotor
TailTrim= 0.10 // tail rotor force neutral value
RotorTorque= 0.12 // rotor torque factor "yaw"
TailPlane= 0.001 // Tail restoring "lift" factor from forward velocity
SideSlip= 5.5 // side slip torque restoring factor "yaw"

GroundEffectFactor= 0.001 // ground effect
TransLiftFactor= 0.16 // lift above 20 knots


And they still fly like an arcade game. I've got Gun****! I've tried
the mods, it don't do it for me.
