Ive found with the landings, i come in slightly to the side of helipad, get level with it and then slowly bank to the left or right before setting it down. Other times i will just get roughly on top of it and use the free look to make sure i can see the perimeter of the landing pad in my left and right windows. If i can them i know im on the money, then slowly set her down.

I always fly from the pilots view aswell, never from the gunners view. Just doesnt seem as authentic if i do?
Yeah always cockpit view for me too, although I do swich between front and back seat. The gunner can fly the aircraft aswell you know, as can the driver fire the weapons.

I advise anyone who is enjoying this demo to get yourself a copy of Ed Macy's book "Apache". I'm finding it hard to put down, and it really gives you a better idea of what imense skill it takes to fly this bird for real. It will make you enjoy the game even more.
