Westland Wessex of the Royal Air Force by Simshed

The Westland Wessex was the first helicopter to have a 
gas turbine engine and was in the early 1960s adapted
for the RAF to become a general-purpose helicopter 
capable of troop-carrying, air ambulance and ground 
attack roles.

It entered RAF service in 1962, and did not finally 
retire until January 2003, being the main transport
and battelfield support helicopter until the 
introduction of the Puma. 

The bright yellow RAF machines used for air-sea and
mountain rescue duties became especially famous and
saved many lives.

This aircraft was designed for FS2004 by Simshed 
using FSDS 2 by Brian Franklin.  Gauges were made
by Jim Cooper.

My thanks go to Antti Pankkonen and Arne Bartels
for the use of their autopilot and hover gauges.

Special thanks to Rick Piper for his work on the
rotors.
