FSX West Yorkshire Police Bo 105

This repaint showcases the West Yorkshire Police variant of the famed Bo 105, capturing every detail of this active-duty police helicopter in a high-fidelity format for Microsoft Flight Simulator X. These textures, developed by Bernhard Lechner, are designed exclusively for the payware Nemeth Design Bo 105 FSX/SP2 package and require that original model to function. Enthusiasts of light twin-engine rotorcraft will appreciate the technical precision poured into recreating this specific police operator’s livery.

Specialized Police Air Support Livery

The West Yorkshire Police Bo 105 depicted here reflects the real-world helicopter used for various policing tasks such as surveillance and rapid response. The Messerschmitt-Bölkow-Blohm Bo 105 platform is renowned for its agile handling and twin-engine reliability. This repaint highlights the law enforcement markings, including the department’s subtle insignias and distinctive color patterns frequently associated with UK police aviation units.

Key Features of This Paint Set

• Detailed Markings: Accurate logos, registration text, and color layouts as seen on the operational police rotorcraft.
• Enhanced Visuals: Textures optimized for FSX’s rendering engine, ensuring a realistic finish on the fuselage and rotor details.
• Payware Compatibility: Intended only for the Nemeth Design Bo 105 FSX/SP2 model (not included; needs separate purchase).

Installation Guidelines

1. Extract the contents of the downloaded ZIP to a temporary location.
2. Move the texture.WYP folder into the “SIMOBJECTS/ROTORCRAFT/ND_BO105” directory within your simulator installation.
3. Open the aircraft.cfg file in that same ND_BO105 folder. Then insert the following block of text directly after the last [FLTSIM.X] entry, and adjust the “XX” in [FLTSIM.XX] to the next available number:

[FLTSIM.XX]
Title       = BO105 West Yorkshire Police
Sim         = BO105
Model       =
Panel       =
Sound       =
Texture     = WYP
kb_checklists  = NDBO105_CHECK
kb_reference   =
atc_id         =
atc_airline    =
ui_manufacturer= Eurocopter/MBB
ui_type        = BO-105
ui_variation   = West Yorkshire Police
ui_typerole    = ROTORCRAFT
ui_createdby   = NEMETH DESIGNS
description    =

Ensure you save and close the aircraft.cfg file. Then launch Microsoft Flight Simulator X and select the newly added West Yorkshire Police Bo 105 from the rotorcraft menu. If it does not appear, verify that the numbering sequence in the [FLTSIM.XX] entries remains correct.
