Rescue Pilot

Just Flight has just announced their new product for Microsoft Flight Simulator:

"Rescue Pilot – Mission pack makes use of the new mission system that FSX has supplied and is the first in a series of mission pack for FSX. Our first pack is based in the UK and is based on a realistic air rescue medical service. You will be expected to fly missions on a variety of both fixed wing and rotary aircraft thus: - Helicopter: Bell JR206 - Single engine aircraft: C172 - Multi-engine aircraft: King Air - Jet aircraft: Learjet All the aircraft come in a custom designed rescue livery as shown in the pictures. A paint tool allows users to create their own liveries if they wish. The missions include custom objects, sounds and effects. The mission settings, (the environment of each location), is high quality and custom built, with special effects such as fire and explosion as well as custom objects and animated objects. The aim is to give you the feeling of "being there". The missions involve the ‘Linkmis - Linking Motion’ ™ element comes into play when walking to aircraft and changing aircraft. Different settings of difficulty can be selected such as the time for completing the missions and/or changing weather to accommodate for different users experience. Be prepared for unexpected changes! A routine flight can turn into a challenge! And of course Medals and rewards are given for success. At the custom built company base the user chooses company name will be displayed on the company building. Every mission will start with an aircraft selection; the user can select one aircraft out of the provided aircraft to fly by "walking" from the building up to the chosen aircraft. Sometimes mission will be flyable in both a helicopter and a fixed wing, sometimes a certain type of aircraft is required to complete the mission. The mission briefing will allow enough information to allow a sensible choice."

What about Issue #3?

We are aware that, due to the fact that Rotorwash is released quarterly, people may often wonder if we are working on the next issue or not - being this a small fan project.

And indeed we are. Actually work usually starts even before the release of the previous magazine (for #3 we have started working on it right before #2 went out).

Althought not yet set on stone, we have pretty much figured out what will be included in the next issue. We already have set a cover article, a few reviews and a couple of regular columns (something we didn't have so far) that we hope you'll all enjoy.

So, stay tuned as we are all hard at work to get you the next issue of Rotorwash.

Until then: keep hovering!
