FSDS German Airforce Eurocopter AS532U2 for FS2000 and CFS2.

This is my first design attempt for FS2000 with FSDS, or lets say my 
first attempt at all. So if there is any mistake, error or other thinks 
you might have to be angry about please let me now.  In the future I 
want to improve the Cougar model and details to make it as real as 
possible. Hopefully FS2002 will have a better Helicopter AIR FILE so 
that the flying parameters will be more real and the capabilities of the 
Helicopter can reach a better status.
