## About This Content
It takes a special kind of pilot to be a rescue pilot. While most pilots
actively avoid dangerous weather conditions and difficult landings, this will
become part of daily life for you as an operational pilot in Arctic Rescue.
Developed by Jane Whittaker, Arctic Rescue features a custom-liveried EH101
Merlin rescue helicopter, as included in FSX: Steam Edition, as well as custom
rescue liveries and updated flying characteristics for the FSX: Steam Edition
Cessna Grand Caravan and Maule Orion. These aircraft make up an adaptable
fleet able to respond to any incident, and form the backbone of rescue
operations across the challenging and dangerous arctic region.
From searching for lost ships in poor weather, to dramatic landings on frozen
tundra and rescuing casualties from a ferocious fire, Arctic Rescue includes
20 challenging missions, calling for you to respond immediately to a wide
range of adrenalin-pumping emergencies that will keep you on the edge of your
seat.
All the missions are fully voiced by a team of professional actors, acting as
your co-pilot and mission control, ensuring you will not have to face the
rigours of the Arctic alone. Once the “Scramble! Scramble!” message is
received over your radio, there is no turning back!
Additionally, Arctic Rescue includes scores of custom models and animations
such as distressed cargo vessels, road vehicles trapped in the depths of a
blizzard, lost hikers, and dramatic burning buildings. This mission pack fully
immerses you in your role as you face the dual challenges of surviving in the
inhospitable Arctic Circle and dealing with major emergencies as they unfold
before your very eyes!
