Gd’day.
I am a relatively long-time member of Navigraph/Simbrief. I fly a range of airframes from GA Turboprops, Executive Jets and Heavy haulers.
My helicopter hanger is stocked (LOL) with Bell 222Bs, B212s, Bell 412s MD550s and BO-105s. As much as they’re all a challenge to ‘light off’ their turbines… I’ve incorporated several flight dynamics performance tools that make them fun to fly.
Unfortunately, there are no base helicopter ICAO airframes included in Simbrief’s ICAO templates that would allow someone to select and possibly customize a helicopter.
In other words, creating a simulated Medical Life Flight from a highway intersection (Lat/Long) fix to a close by Hospital ER Trauma Unit (Lat/Long) is not possible - as far as I’ve dug around - you’d first need to have the helicopter in your airframe selection set.
The next SNAFU is the ability to pre-file a flight on VATSIM via Simbrief. Without a selected airframe? There’s no joy.
I’d be happy to help the Dev Team evaluate the possibility of including a sub set of Helicopter airframes within Simbrief.
My contact info is linked to my Forum login and my Simbrief login. I think I’ve been a paid Navigraph/Simbrief member for close to a decade??? I’m also pushing to burst through 15.7k VATSIM hours by 12/31/24.
Regards,
Keith
