Has anyone else had the problem that when they landed in autopilot that u would land and float 6 feet in the air with your rotor break engaged and your canopy doors open???. I had this happen a couply of times and it also happens when i watch other helocopters in the F12 view, anyone else see this???

There's much more funny bug in the game associated with landings. Just land anywhere outside of an airfield, preferrably on a noticeable slope, and start to taxi downhill. Eventually your helo will leave the ground and start to move level on an invisible floor (someone explain me what those hype in the manual about landing on hillsides is for ). For some reason there's much less drag for this type of motion, and I've reached 405 kph in Hokum with just 13% engine torque applied If you continue to accelerate pass this speed you'll just take off. And this bug occures 100% for me (I have 1.4.5.x beta patch installed).
