Ps3 – Does repairing a helicopter inflight gain you points

battlefield-3ps3

In a game this morning on Caspian Border I was an engineer passenger in a helicopter.

I spent 5+ minutes going round in the back constantly using the repair tool to bring the health back up to 100%. At times we were taking lots of fire so I was repairing from 25% on several occasions.

Should I be getting XP points for this?

While I helped keep the helicopter up in the air for a significant period of time it didn't seem to contribute much to my individual score.

I was doing this too and it didn't give me points. As of now, repairing a vehicle while inside it doesn't trigger the game to give you points. Ideally you should get points but since it could easily be abused due to the helicopter being repaired constantly when under heavy fire. This is probably for the best to stop players from boosting up their XP while a passenger inside a helicopter.
