i use this script in a trigger to spawn a flying AH1Z

_veh = createVehicle ["AH1Z", getMarkerPos "mark1", [],0,"fly"];

Erm, that would create a flying, but unmanned, helicopter which will quckly fall to the ground. Try using the function BIS_fnc_spawnVehicle to create a manned aircraft.

Place Functions module and spawn like this:

[[getPos player select 0, getPos player select 1, 50], getDir player, "AW159_Lynx_BAF", group player] call bis_fnc_spawnVehicle;

GRP1 = createGroup west; veh = createVehicle ["AH1Z", getMarkerPos "hspawn", [],0,"fly"]; AH1Zpilot = grp1 createUnit ["USMC_Soldier_Pilot", [0,0,1], [], 0, "CAN_COLLIDE"]; AH1Zpilot moveInDriver veh; [veh] join player

ok found the solution for it incase anyone wants to know now it spawns in the air and dont crash and join player group

Here is another example, I switched to the C130 though because the choppers did not want to keep moving for some reason, anyway the script spawns the transport vehicle, creates a driver, loads the driver and flys to the jump position then off into the distance.
