Andrew, check out AVSIM - they'll probably have something for the 753.
For myself, I use the PSS which comes with the 752 and 753, and all the variants you can think of If you're willing to spend about $58, I'd recommend buying it.

Congrats Andrew.
POSKY has an excellent 753 model if your looking for freeware, merging it with our fleet panel worked out well for me, its the one that I use. http://www.projectopensky.com

Welcome to the elegant 757 Andrew. Be nice to her, she does not do the autorotation procedure very well.

Spot on Felix - but I am glad they were ok. I've had 3 bad incidents while flying (other than combat related), walked away from 2 of them, met my wife on one of them! I read about that one you posted - the guy didn't bother to clear his tail rotor. and as he reacted to the tail almost striking the building, he dipped the rotor towards the hangar, and the results! But hooah! No harm no foul!

Andy, Welcome to the 757 "crew". An Eclectic group that flys the graceful 757. Enjoy! In the broom closet we call a 757 Pilots Lounge, you'll find the hose and sponges to wash your new addition to the ramp.
