I have been playing a lot Arma 2 this past few months and I discovered that I really like to drive helicopters, so I was wondering if there are any helicopter flight simulators for pc?, I have seen there are many flight simulators, even boat simulators, but no helicopter sims? at least new ones?.

Sims and Helicopter in a single phrase? Then good sir, may I point you to this classic oldie of a game from the Sims family, I had quite a few laughs back in the day too  Big Laff

Though if you want something more modern or with a different approach, I don't know any others worth mentioning, as I don't really play a lot of heli simulators myself.

From memory, Microsoft flight simulator has a bunch of helicopters. Though they're probably not as realistically simulated as a dedicated helicopter sim would be, and you're not gonna be seeing combat.

I remember the first time I played Simcopter years ago, a friend lended it to me but I could not play it or find in anywhere else after that, I really liked it then, so thanks for reminding me.

It's a sad thing there are no more helicopter games, but what I like about helicopters in Arma 2 is that you can do lots of stuff with them and not just fly them like in Flightsim, the funest thing is transporting things not just shooting, but Black Shark looks very fun, Steam has it so I'll try to get it, thanks a lot.

The Arma guys are currently working on a civilian helicopter sim, Take on Helicopters: http://takeonthegame.com/

There are some people making an Apache sim: http://combathelo.blogspot.com/

The recent Apache Air Assault is meant to be not too bad: http://apache-game.com/en

Search and Rescue: Vietnam Med Evac is a bit older, but might interest you if you're into transporting stuff: http://www.mobygames.com/game/search-rescue-vietnam-med-evac
