Any clues on finding downed Heli's?

I wanna get a gun with a good sight on it. I only ever seem to find AK47 or AKM guns.

The barracks never turn up anything good either

Scratch that map, heli's spawn anywhere on the northern side of the map, close to a forest or in the middle of a field.

Not close to or inside towns or villages.

They're randomly generated, so a map will not help.

Search open fields at night; you can spot the muzzle flash from the starboard minigun from quite a way off.

Search open fields north mostly.

Shh son you don't know anything.

The map points out where the helos posssible spawn. There is around 3 helos per server. Its eaither on 1 of those location I would recommend to search around stary.

at least 5 crashed choppers per server. Our group managed to find 5 on one. Though I personally believe it's more. Run around the open fields around Vybor, Novy Sobor, Stary Sobor and the Altar hills north east of Novy Sobor.

Of course it isn't. Heli crash sites are placed by an algorithm, meaning they aren't static. The map only shows locations that someone has found a crash site at.

3 helicopters is the number of usable ones, not the crashed helicopters.

A lot of people report 5 or 6 per server, I personally have only ever found one. :(

I found a Helicopter Crash right at the edge of Novhy Sabor. Found 2 SD Bizons a medical box and 1 M107 Rifle
