Gig, you have 5 hours of duel in a 206? Were you fighting with the

I'm sure someone has created a Rotorway add-on for MSFS.

Actually, I suggested that to RotorWay yesterday.

As for a real one.
I don't want to spend that much on what would basicly be a toy of zero
practical use to me other than fun.

Whereas a C172 is pure pragmatism.

A C172 is a very useful method of transportation. For me anything much

It would be easy to tell if it's a good sim - just autorotate to touchdown -
if you wreck the aircraft, they got it right.
