The Gazelle SA-342M is a Go!

I may have been the first Gazelle purchaser. I grabbed it literally seconds after it appeared in the e-shop.

 

I had just purchased the L-39 and MiG-15bis, both great modules by the way. I was messing around binding things to my account and such when I suddenly noticed that the Gazelle had appeared in the e-shop. It wasn't there a few seconds earlier, I know because I checked before buying the two modules.

 

I told my wife, "I just bought the L-39 and the MiG-15 and seconds later they released the Gazelle! Now I've already spent the money I had allotted for modules!"

 

She replied, "You've been waiting for the Gazelle all this time! Well, you have to have it. I have some extra spending money, I'll buy it for you."

 

I think it helped that she's French and it was the Gazelle. But at any rate, I got three new modules instead of two, thanks to my wife's generosity. I knew I was doing the right thing when I married the woman!

 

As for the Gazelle, WOW! This thing is a sports car of the sky. I flew her around for a while, put her through some flathatting maneuvers and such, and then landed.

 

I'm impressed! Highly recommended!

Campaign was designed for Cacauss since we want everyone to be able to enjoy it without having to own Nevada. So it'll be avaialable when 1.5.3 gets updated. But you can look at the campaign information in your /doc folder of the module.

 

Eh? Am I missing something. What campaign?

Took her for a spin.

Fist time I am flying a helicopter in a sim since Blackshark first version (years ago).

 

I can't describe how much I am enjoying the Gazelle (Elle est superbe !) right now, even if I am a noob pilote. :D

She is very touchy so be gentle with her and she'll give you a hell of a show ! :D

 

And the Nevada map is gorgeous by the way ! :D

Polychop congratulations again on your first release! She is fantastic and already given me a new appreciation of how challenging helicopters are! She looks and sounds amazing! Lots of practice ahead for me.

The campaign is amazing. I helped test it and there was many hundreds of hours of love put into it. Plus tons of voice acting (including yours truly).

 

It's visible from all the details and the presentation, congrats! Really looking forward to it :)

 

Of course, I'd need to be able to fly without killing myself or knocking out the copilot first (yes, I did both :unsure: ), that would be too easy on the enemy ;)
