Apache is good but for me the best chopper in DCS is, was and remains the Huey. Nothing beats its almost ww2 like pit, the shakiness and the whopwhop sound. I just love that thing to bits. I also love how it’s about the same size as my van ![]()
…And probably simpler to operate!
I’m partial to Tobsen and @EightBall 's OH-6A. Damn that thing is fun to fly! I feel like it can do anything but sling load and bring a bunch of your best friends along. There’s a Chinook for that.
I haven’t so much as wiped the dust off this project since July. Today though, I got a shipment! They parts are all the “shorts” from the phase 1 I brought home in the spring. Still…progress! Especially given that I was half expecting CFX to be forced out of business once the tariffs hit Canada (their primary supplier).
Adding a detail here for my own records. I scratched the paint badly in late spring while drilling. I only just around to the repair using a spray and clear coat by touchupdirect.com. It came out very close.
