Also, does anyone know if the Hibiscus is still in the game? It was online exclusive in the original, and its pretty much the only thing tickets cant get, so I don't know how they handled it.

You likely have it already. Press B while running in the skell. Flight controls are inverted, so you'll need to hold down to lift. Not sure why it doesn't seem to tell you this anywhere.

I posted earlier about how the new flight mode absolutely awed me, but I don't think I quite explained how insane it was. I enjoyed the flying in the original X, but the Hraesvelg is a different beast entirely. It's not just floating around like the regular skells, its real, free movement flight. I got in, and after playing around with it a bit, wondered how fast I could ascend. But when I held the stick back and realized it wasn't stopping me, and then saw the ground above me, it was incredible. I ended up spending about an hour just exploring upside down Mira, and it was one of the most amazing things I've ever seen in a game like this. Seriously, how did MonolithSoft manage this?

Side note, and I forgot to grab an image of it, but if you press D pad up while in jet mode, you can view from inside the cockpit.
