At long last! A high-performance, highly-automated, speed demon of a helicopter: from Cowan Simulation, the Sikorsky S-76C++, now available exclusively on the MSFS Marketplace for US$37.99 or your local equivalent.
In this detailed review, I take you through:
⚙️ Deep dive into the autopilot systems and how to master them
🕹️ A cockpit tour and smooth flight tutorial
🛫 What the S-76C++ is built for: oil rig ops, corporate charters, air ambulance missions
🧠 Why this helicopter is perfect for simmers coming from airliners
🎨 A full showcase of liveries and exterior detailing
In my view, this is Cowan Sim’s best release yet, and I’ll show you why. Plus, I cover the latest update that improves Xbox controls, cockpit visuals, and engine readings—major upgrades since my earlier preview.
📌 Chapters included for easy navigation
