Yes!!! I had many happy hours in Airwolf in FS2004. That looks incredible! The scenery is stunning. Thank you so much for doing this for all us Airwolf fans.
Nice flight, Stringfellow Lemoine. 3:06 Careful, that's Redwolf. 10:53 That's no spot for Airwolf. You want to do it properly, you need to find the cave she belongs in and park her there. :) 19:06 No, those are drones disguised as floating rocks. The same ones that flew over New Jersey, top secret stuff.
1. Mover can fly the heck out of a helo 2. For my 40th we took the fam on a canyon tour. (Stayed in the same hotel the MS folks hosted Mover in) This was epic 3. I literally have watched this 5 times 4. Mover needs to play cat and mouse with Casmo in the canyon
What most people don't know is that the control lines for the turbo boosters are routed through the doors, so without doors you can't use turbo. True fact. Look it up. But seriously, glad you got a cool Christmas present. Even if Luna disapproves.
You can get the door back adjusting the weight +50 lb in the tablet - aircraft cargo options. It was a nice surprise that they hand crafted Tusayan in the sim after last update - brought back memories from the event
You can also click the thing that looks like a silver ashtray cover right near the door frame, right by basically where the pilot’s right knee would be and it’ll toggle the doors real time. Took me a bit to figure it out.
I was waiting for "Wires!" and a hard pitch up out of canyon and slew of SAMs launched like in the pilot. Sweet DLC though... if they could only get the boosters working! Thanks for sharing, Moover. Cheers!
This is really cool because i'm pretty confident this airport is the same one I flew out of when I was a kid on my very first time flying. I begged my parents to let me take a helicopter tour over the grand canyon cause I always loved helicopters. Still one of my favorite child hood memories
Very cool flight! Oddly enough I watched a video this morning by AvAngel where she flew a powered parasail from KGCN into the Canyon. So I was inspired to try it myself in VR, but in the Joby S4 eVTOL which is my new favorite sightseeing aircraft. Like a mini-V-22 with 6 electric motors. The Canyon is just spectacular in the Pimax Crystal Light. I landed on one of the “islands” and got out to walk over to the edge. What a view! Amazing what this sim can do already.
Wow this is sooo good. All through the video I was humming the theme tune haaa. Only thing that was missing was a little bird baddie with a big mustache and the forever realiable RIO/WSO 😂😂
As a former flight-simmer, around 25-years ago (dabbled briefly again, 2016), and in 1984 when Airwolf came out, I was just barely developing a frontal cortex, though it was hard to prove, at 16... I am pleased that you've got some joy out of MSFS2024!!! If I was looking to front the minimal, estimated $3k - $5k ($10k?) for a flight-sim system, and accessories, that would produce anywhere near this level of fidelity and functionality (within the context of _"desktop simulation"_ ) - I was first dissuaded by your earlier evaluation of 2024, and I would be more persuaded by this demo, if I had it to do again - that said, yes! I appreciate and enjoy this video, and 98.9% of all your content (I'm not a sycophant 😉) My best to you and Luna, for the coming new year, glad you brought us Lester _"Sheriff",_ and all your friends, co-conspirators, support, assistants, volunteers, and this approximate 436k of people, who like myself, have a common interest in what you provide here, and what you get out of it too! 🖖☮ 🙇 🍻
what is the VR motion controls like that lets you touch everything like in real life because thats a really cool feature to simulate free movement inside the aircraft.
19:50 into the video, floating fence near the fuel pump, now I know what motorsport air fences are 😂 Generally like the concept of having the whole world as a flyable playground, but there's still a long way for the generation processing to go until all these solid bridges and other objects being reasonably created.
Nice! Everything is better in ‘24 once you get it working well! If you use the slider at the top left in the W&B section of the EFB set to 100% you’ll get the doors back
The CowanSim helos all have the doors and other extras configured via the weights/loadout configuration .. in 2024 goto the EFB onto the aircraft page.. there you can select the weights as well as the fuel. one of the weight slots says "doors" and a weight you need to add for them to appear.
“ Hey mover!!! It’s Canadian guy I recently saw a video of an an airline pilot in U.S talking to atc!!! Atc informed the captain approaching him was not 1 f35 but 6 flying a near flight ✈️ pattern in his direction!!! “ The airline captain then replied back to atc!!!! “ I’m to close for missles I’m switching to guns!!!! “ then replied sir that is the funniest thing I’ve heard in my entire career!!!!! Must have been former Tom cat pilot!!!!!
Not sure if it can be had in the FS marketplace, but Blue Thunder low level flying through the LA river, and of course trying the loop, would complete the trifecta of 80’s choppers. You best believe they’ll be probably adding the new Blue Thunder in when the remake movie comes out next year.
low level terrain looks waaay better than it did in 2020. I'm still waiting a bit for the dust to settle from 2024's launch bugs but i'll definitely be playing it at some point
Going to try it out from Van Nuys and tour the LA Canyons with her? You'll probably find some actual shooting locations, Mover. I really hope we get a full up DCS Airwolf. Best I can afford until I win the lotto to buy and convert my own 222. And get a licence. lol.
Curious to see if Asobo are able to take the higher level photogrammetry from Grand Canyon to other locations (finally get rid of the apocalyptic looking cities) without internet/server connections collapsing like day 1.
the Cowansim stuff sometimes doesn't load currently for me in 2024 either. there's usually a clickable region on the hand holds to add the doors, or if you go the the aircraft tab on the EFB, performance, load cargo, and add whatever weight it says for the doors ( make sure to hit "load in aircraft" afterwards) that should work as well. The canyon looks incredible, I was able to fly the tour routes based off visuals and memory alone the other day
if you have thru the 'Marketplace' its there, but MS disabled all add-on at the moment. I had the Cowansim MD 500E and was using it fine until they decided to disable it. I could see it in my 'Hangar' at it was listed as disabled. I had to buy it AGAIN directly from Cowansim, bypassing the Marketplace, and place it directly into my community folder. I also got the 222B while I was at Cowansim. Both work fine for me.
@@hwoods01 I must have typo'd, I meant they don't always load correctly. I have mine through the cowansim site as well so they work in 2024, but when I load most of the heli's in the doors are removed by default, and the 500 loads in with my view in the center seat
The out side is great. I am a bit disappointed that the flight engineers station is not fleshed out but is the standard 222 passenger compartment. But maybe that will be fixed in a future update.
I'm still learning helis to eventually fly this add-on. I already own it. MY first will totally be in the Valley of the Gods though as is rightly appropriate.
I have a VR challenge for you. Take off out of KPGA airport in something fast, I like the Mustang or the Corsair. Fly over the Glen Canyon Dam, drop down in the canyon and try to make it to Lake Mead as low and as fast as you can. I have a couple of VR attempts on my channel, it is the BEST canyon run you will find in MSFS in my opinion.
What, not turbos? No orchestra? Even the freeware model in X-Plane gives you those. (Of course, it also has a bug where crashing the helicopter crashes the sim *and* the OS - at least on the Mac - and I have no idea how the programmer managed to do *that*.)
Mover is it possible that Jeju Air 2216 experienced a major electrical and hydraulic failure (since it stopped sending signals apparently), while maintaining steering control?
Can you teach us how to quick stop J-turn evading maneuvers and Land then quickly take off combat style with a heli in MSFS it looks really fun when they do it in SQUAD the PC game and the movies Vietnam style drop zones landing.
how is flight sim these days ive been thinking of getting it my self to get back into a flight sim game i havent played one since flight sim x from what i heard it had a bit of issued at launch also should i get 2020 first or what
I mean, the commentary you gave already was spot on. Nothing changed yet (except less stability for me in the two newest patches). Still it could be fun to see if you would find any enjoyment in doing it.
They feel a lot more like DCS, yes! I never sat in a helicopter in real live, so no idea whats real and whats not, but I always loved flying the Huey in DCS and hated flying helos in MS2020 , MS2024 gives you a lot more of that DCS feeling.
Great graphics, but the strobe effect on the rotor blades is completely unrealistic. That is an artifact caused by a recording device and is not visible to normal human vision.
Awesome. A friend of mine owns a Bell 222B and I have had the pleasure of “steering” it around the sky on a few occasions. She is a great bird.
You should ask him for a ride!
@ I have had the pleasure to go up in Bell 222B on numerous occasions.
I instantly sing the theme song in my head.
😂 and it sounded just like @6:34

$10 says the next 400 hours of content will be Mover flying Airwolf.
And I’ll be here for it!
1. Mover can fly the heck out of a helo
2. For my 40th we took the fam on a canyon tour. (Stayed in the same hotel the MS folks hosted Mover in) This was epic
3. I literally have watched this 5 times
4. Mover needs to play cat and mouse with Casmo in the canyon
The low level river scenery was incredible.
2:30 this is where you got me!
40 years into sims, vr and ffb.. I still mistakenly thought this segment was real-life footage🙈
4:00 darn it! It was a real-life footage :) ok computer - try harder next time
same
Hell yeah! Airwolf! RIP Ernest Borgnine
Both String and Dom have passed on.. Sadly Archangel (Alex Cord) has passed away a few years ago too.

Iconic chopper! Humming to the Airwolf theme.

Haaa
Love it! And given your love of Airwolf i'm sure you had a blast doing this.
That's awesome!! Loved Airwolf when I was kid! You should take it for a spin in Monument Valley next. Pretty cool!
Looks a lot better than the NES version.
It certainly has better physics
I learned too late in life that NES flight games only work with the Power glove and that the Power glove only works with NES flight games lol
It’s always a pleasure to see The Lady.
Funny thing, I worked for MS during that introduction at the resort you flew over. That was a fun introduction event.
That run through the canyons and the river, all I could think of was, “stay on target”. 🤣
Good, you're saving the looping for when you're using the motion rig.
Gonna need the theme song for a loop
This is really cool because i'm pretty confident this airport is the same one I flew out of when I was a kid on my very first time flying. I begged my parents to let me take a helicopter tour over the grand canyon cause I always loved helicopters. Still one of my favorite child hood memories
Totally awesome - Go Airwolf!

The ol gal still got it!! ⚡👊🦇
I dont have this game so thanks for showing the cool stuff
Love this... with the low lvl flight you. Should have mapped sim rate made it look like the turbo was ingaudges.that would have looked sweet

Top of T's, no WC's, and fuel good for about an hour. LOL
Just sitting here waiting for that synth to kick in

they need to offer the valley of the gods for Airwolf
It's about damn time
169 knots with doors off while buzzing the tower/pool 😂. Any views at the pool 🤔
Going to try it out from Van Nuys and tour the LA Canyons with her? You'll probably find some actual shooting locations, Mover. I really hope we get a full up DCS Airwolf. Best I can afford until I win the lotto to buy and convert my own 222. And get a licence. lol.
I only fly helicopters in FS. This looks amazing. Instant purchase 😁
some bugs to be worked out but this flight sim looks so good 👍 especially in VR
when it works
Great video. You did not crash. I would be your Dominic Santini. In the rear with the gear. I was a teenager when it first aired. ❤😂
Damn! The doors! (you can display them by clicking on the ashtray inside cockpit the on the right close to the door.
Would been perfect if it would do the beeps when pushing the start buttons
Curious to see if Asobo are able to take the higher level photogrammetry from Grand Canyon to other locations (finally get rid of the apocalyptic looking cities) without internet/server connections collapsing like day 1.
Is that an ashtray next to the A/C vent? LOL
My first experience with FS was a wire frame version on the Apple ][, amazing how it has progressed.

Can't you play Airwolf song at the behind of video ? Awsome fun time , thx for video
Let’s fly formation hehe. I love flying 222 or uh1 etc.
Did you manage to take it supersonic? They never explained how that worked.
They actually did explain in the early episodes. The rotor system disengages and it becomes a lifting body.
Archangel called... he wants his helicopter back.
Have you done any combat in the VTOL VR helicopter?
Graphics set to ultra I assume? Any custom changes to the graphic settings in Vr you prefer?
Make sure DLSS is on. It defaults to TAA.
Where’s the Santini Air hanger. That would be a nice touch
Wow, very cool. No nuclear tipped shrike missles??
No dormant volcanos to land it? I thought this sim was supposed to be realistic!!
Amazing ! Is this a paid add on ?
It is. it was on sale though, so it's a great value.
LOL I pretty much did this exact flight in VR last night in an R66...
Is there a Ernest Borgnine skin?
The out side is great. I am a bit disappointed that the flight engineers station is not fleshed out but is the standard 222 passenger compartment. But maybe that will be fixed in a future update.
You good down there Mover? Weather looks bad. 🌪️
I'm still learning helis to eventually fly this add-on. I already own it. MY first will totally be in the Valley of the Gods though as is rightly appropriate.
Are you getting up and down drafts in the canyon?
Mover we need a breakdown of the Korean Jeju air crash footage. Looks like landing gear failure?
Truly Grand 😂
OMG my childhood ❤
Cue up the theme song!
Hey Mover, the USAF recently allowed warrant officers for certain tasks in cybersecurity do you think they will ever consider WO's for pilot jobs?
Stringfellow Lemoine boosting and juicing the Airwolf. Just needed the theme. Yea i know copyright :)
Did you find the secret mountain base to land inside of..
I have a VR challenge for you. Take off out of KPGA airport in something fast, I like the Mustang or the Corsair. Fly over the Glen Canyon Dam, drop down in the canyon and try to make it to Lake Mead as low and as fast as you can. I have a couple of VR attempts on my channel, it is the BEST canyon run you will find in MSFS in my opinion.
I have a challenge for you: learn to fly rotor craft. Any half-assed drunken sailor can fly fixed wing.
You need to hide it inside a mountain. lol
What, not turbos? No orchestra? Even the freeware model in X-Plane gives you those. (Of course, it also has a bug where crashing the helicopter crashes the sim *and* the OS - at least on the Mac - and I have no idea how the programmer managed to do *that*.)
Heli's in VR is legit the best thing you can do in your home aside from sex. I can't wait to get a 6 axis platform next.
Mover is it possible that Jeju Air 2216 experienced a major electrical and hydraulic failure (since it stopped sending signals apparently), while maintaining steering control?
For those who don’t know- Airwolf intro ua-cam.com/video/ULfmowbNlK0/v-deo.htmlfeature=shared
Man I loved that show! But it broke my heart when they shot down 2 Navy F-4's lol.
I wish we could have an actual Airwolf in Misfis. Can't really have the weapons, but more speed and the other flight performance shenanigans...
Can you teach us how to quick stop J-turn evading maneuvers and Land then quickly take off combat style with a heli in MSFS it looks really fun when they do it in SQUAD the PC game and the movies Vietnam style drop zones landing.
Where’s the Missiles? 😂
Let me know if you find Sinjin.
I have had worse experience In 2024 i still like it. Though do you have 2020 lets fly
You were supposed to take off from the inside of the mountain.
how is flight sim these days ive been thinking of getting it my self to get back into a flight sim game i havent played one since flight sim x from what i heard it had a bit of issued at launch also should i get 2020 first or what
When are we getting a "Mover Ruins MSFS Career"?
I mean, the commentary you gave already was spot on. Nothing changed yet (except less stability for me in the two newest patches). Still it could be fun to see if you would find any enjoyment in doing it.
We need an episode of him flying A cargo plane full of rubber dog shit out of Hong Kong.
Badass!
More BMS plz
Give me turbos Dom...
do helis in this one actually have weight and challenge to them or are they lifeless? 2020 was so bad compared to dcs
They feel a lot more like DCS, yes! I never sat in a helicopter in real live, so no idea whats real and whats not, but I always loved flying the Huey in DCS and hated flying helos in MS2020 , MS2024 gives you a lot more of that DCS feeling.
Sir, can you fly over Chapada dos Veadeiros (Brazil)? I don't have this game and see no YT channel doing it.
Cheers!
Can you react to the first 30ish minutes of the movie plane?
This was awesome
Great graphics, but the strobe effect on the rotor blades is completely unrealistic. That is an artifact caused by a recording device and is not visible to normal human vision.
Nice.
