I recently purchased FSX mainly for the helicopter simulation part... I have already added several really nice helicopters ranging from the EC-135 and EC-145 to the famous Huey and Chinook... The question I have is this... is there a way to pick the helicopter that I want to use for a mission? Or do I have to use the Bell Jetranger for all my missions?? Any help would be greatly appreciated!! Thanks!!

I'm quite certain that the missions are set and can't be changed.
You like choppers, try www.hovercontrol.com for downloads.

What's wrong with the Jet Ranger?? It's a great fling wing....
The Jet Ranger is kinda boring, too many flying around 😂 The Hovercontrol downloads come with missions (most anyway)so you could do that 😉
I like the idea of them but it would be nice to have a few more options. Also with the CH yoke, it is kinda odd as I get some strange inputs and I know of no Helicopters that have a yoke in the real world. I guess there are some joystick cyclic combos around though?
