It's the best helo sim on the market at the moment. It's insanely difficult though so prepare to spend a lot of time learning how to operate the helo and it's weapons systems.

Black Shark is wicked but yes its pretty much as close as youre gonna get to a realistic helo-sim on a PC. You will need to spend a lot of time reading up on it. On the plus side you will learn some basics of helicopter flight!

The way to play it is with a 3-screen layout and TrackIR!

None of which I have....yet...dang it

Take a look at the DCS:BS thread HERE mate.

And yes, it's excellent. But remember it's a Simulator not a game where you fly a helicopter. There will be a very, very steep learning curve for anyone not used to study Sims. And a very steep learning curve for those of us that have.
