In most helis such as the Black Hawk,Merlin and the Apache have a flare bug. It will deploy flares continually. Deploies then reloads then deploies and reloads etc for about the first 50-100 tickets then it stops.

Maybe for some reason, the key appears jammed down for the game or the system. Have you tried pressing the smoke/flare key while it was happening?

Solved the prob for me. Just press (or hold) X while you're having this bug and it should disapear.

I'm also having this bug with Xfire (as I have X+numlock as short-cut for ingame menu), pressing X again helps at all times.

yeah, looks like it's something like that... like clicking to throw a grenade, getting shot, revived, and when you switch to the grenade it throws it right away without you clicking anything and probably killing all of your squad :p
