It is possible to hover some of the Helo's however the game engine isnt really designed to do this , so it can be very difficult, the same goes for the harriers, you can thrust vector ( and you use basically the same method for Helo's ) however I never seem to have much luck with it, except for rolling STOL operations . The sim is mainly aimed at jets and props , vertical is very complicated . No idea about the MFD issues or the lighting in the Nighthawk , thems is black majiks n' voodoo for the model makers .......Don't trust 'em , they turn people into slugs 'n toads n' stuff.......Us Skinners however are majikal and wonderous , and we help old ladies to cross the road....True story.
