Helicopter Evasion

[Skirmisher]

Interesting. I never ever fly helicopters (eggbeaters) at high altitude.

Only reason to that I can think of going to high altitude is too have a look at what's about. But fixed wing aircraft is better suited to that.

I always run the Apaches as high as they can go, and as far out as I can get them. It's their job to overwatch for my forces below them and pick off any immediate threats. Occasionally one will encounter an enemy unit with enough firepower to get a shot at one. At that point I lower the altitude to low and work my way towards the threat and eliminate it.
