Introducing the Bell 429 for MSFS by jXt Simulations. The Bell 429 is a light twin-engine helicopter known for its high performance, smooth handling, and multi-role versatility—and now, thanks to jXt Simulations, it’s been brought to life in stunning detail for Microsoft Flight Simulator.

The jXt Simulations Bell 429 delivers a highly realistic and immersive experience, faithfully replicating the real-world aircraft used around the globe for EMS, law enforcement, offshore transport, and corporate operations. Whether you're flying medevac missions across urban landscapes or exploring remote wilderness in a luxury configuration, the 429 provides the capability, detail, and depth expected by serious rotorcraft sim pilots.

At the heart of this add-on is a beautifully crafted 3D model (thanks to the original developer Sergio Kauffman), both inside and out. The exterior features detailed PBR textures, animated components, and multiple livery options to suit various operational roles. The interior is equally refined, with high-resolution textures, fully interactive cockpit elements, and accurate layout variations, including EMS stretchers, police equipment, and VIP seating.

The cockpit of the jXt Bell 429 showcases a highly functional and visually accurate glass avionics suite. Both the PFD and MFD are custom-coded, offering enhanced realism, navigation data, and situational awareness. From startup to shutdown, nearly every switch and system is interactive, allowing for authentic checklist procedures and mission immersion. The cockpit supports default nav avionics along with both the PMS and TDS GTN combo's.

Included within the download are detailed instructions for installing and operating the B429 along with instructions for using pre-existing Xplane liveries.

The helicopter was developed for MSFS2020 but can be used in MSFS2024.
