Thanks to the massive GPU/APU wave we’re starting to see some very fun demos using realtime computational fluid dynamic simulations instead of blade element models [1].
This would let you accurately sim helicopter prop wash on landings, wake turbulence, and some of the more extreme flight characteristics of the Alaskan style STOL aircraft with bush wheels and snow mobile engines [2].
In particular Blade Element simming struggles when one is riding the stall envelope as seen in the later field of aviation.
