    Hi.
    I've noticed that the winch's rope and end hook are not visible from inside the helicopter at certain angles. Is this a bug or something else?

    Example, looking straight ahead - the rope is 100% stretched:

    I look down, the rope and hook disappear:

          PC version (Marketplace, the last version). MSFS2024.

          Generally, everything should be visible from this (of the crew) position. This is the view from the inside, moved using Shift + WSAD.

                If you want I can record the video. Generally, I prefer to operate the winch rope from the actual position, the center of the helicopter, rather than from an external view. Thank you. :)

              I recorded the example:

              From external view its ok and present all the time and on every angle.

                  Interestingly, there is no problem with the cargo rope, everything is visible on every angle:

                  Btw. And additionally, when it comes to the winch rope - even though it is not visible from a certain angle, the shadow on the ground is visible along its entire length.
