A-ha, A Demo: Take On Take On Helicopters

What? What? It can't really be just me who thinks of A-ha's finest hour whenever Bohemia's Take On Helicopters is mentioned, can it? Hmmph. Perhaps I can break the association by writing about the chopper sim's new demo, which is out now. At 3.6GB it's faintly monstrous, but the contents sound highly generous. You should take it on, take it on. It'll be gone, in a day or twooooooooooooooooooooooooooo.

(It won't be gone in a day or two). Full contents and moving images below.

· Free Flight mode
· Light and medium helicopters
· 30 x 30 km section of the Seattle terrain
· 2 singleplayer scenarios
· 3 time trial courses
· 3 training scenarios
· 1 multiplayer scenario
· A powerful 2D scenario editor (limited version, does not allow saving or loading)

All set above the skies of Seattle, apparently. Here's a trailer for the full game:
