Very nice landing. ;)
      
Thanks.  It was a crash the first try.  First I got into a lot of circling
around trying to figure where to land and how to approach it.  This
resulted in quite a few near misses with the buildings.  Then once I
decided the approach, I came down too fast and went around to the east (big
mistake) where there were a bunch of buildings and flew right in to one. 
I'm almost there as far as getting it...hovering in slowly is a lot like
balancing a pole or stick vertically in the palm of your hand (or maybe
even more like spinning a plate on a stick which I've never tried).  It
involves a constant flow of miniscule adjustments... probably hundreds per
minute.

    
I agree, i just tried two minutes ago to land with the helicopter between the 
two pillars of this skyscraper you can see on this screenshot:

But i allways crashed. :(
The helicopter gets quite unstable when trying to fly with less than 20 mph.
  
How does FlightGear calculates hitboxes for objects anyway?
