Greetings fellow flight simmers, We are happy to announce the arrival of a new big update for the Steam Release version of Aerofly FS 2! This exciting new update adds many new features and a new aircraft to the ever growing fleet: The EC135 helicopter. This brand new helicopter is a detailed simulation of the real world aircraft with custom autopilot and stability augmentation system that make it really easy to fly a helicopter especially for beginners. If you turn all that assistance off with the red button on the stick you'll be able to fly it like a normal helicopter and enjoy the high fidelity physics simulation in full glory. The EC135 also features a detailed turboshaft engine simulation with real-time simulation of the thermodynamic processes, custom FADEC, realistic boot sequences and startup and and of course a detailed and realistic rotor physics simulation. And of course you can also start this aircraft cold and dark! The update also features new features like a cold-and-dark menu option, new route planning with real world procedures, aircraft system improvements and a lot more. See the full change-log below: Additions:

• EC135 twin turboshaft helicopter
• New implementation of the location dialog with airport search by ICAO, IATA or name, ground images visible in airport diagram
• Selection of cold-and-dark, before start and ready for taxi in the location menu
• New implementation of the navigation dialog with search function, departure (SID), arrival (STAR) and approach (APPR) selection
• SIDs, STARs and APPRs can be selected from inside the cockpit via (M)CDU devices in the A320, B737, B747, B777, C90GTx, LJ45, Q400 as well as Just-Flight add-on aircraft with the GPS 430 or 530 devices
• A320 and Learjet 45 cold and dark with new turbofan engine simulation
• A320 realistic altitude callout, retard and minimums callouts, caution and warning sounds, ground proximity warning system (GPWS - "terrain", "pull up", "too low flap",...), low energy warning ( "speed, speed"), altitude alert and many other new sounds
• C90GTx EFIS avionics upgraded with working menus allowing selection of v-speeds, rose/arc mode and much more
• LJ45 automatic flap trim compensation added
• Copilot manages pressurization if no user interaction is made, preventing unnecessary caution messages in the aircraft when there is no destination airport set
• Las Vegas McCarran International airport (KLAS) several new helipads added

• Numerous bug fixes and improvements
• B58 now has more engine power and more propeller inertia, engine sound improved, DME hold function added
• DME time indications now correct after frequency change
• Modification to the multi threading code to speed up scenery loading. Program startup and scenery loading during simulation should be a lot faster if you have a CPU with 4 or more cores. *
