Hoovering? It must be a vacuum effect!😁

But yes, it's not unusual to see aircraft or vehicles above or below the ground by a small margin, or even (in the case of static aircraft) bouncing up and down. I'm not into the technicalities of Flight sim design but I think it's mesh issue or something similar.

Oh yes ... mean hovering 😉

 

In this case.all is standard and I encouter this problem on every airport. They do also not bounce, everything is normal, simply they hover a little above the ground

My 6 is parked right now in KMIA with AI aircraft alongside and service vehicles. No hovering. Did you install an addon with a mesh ?

Yes, but the pictures above are taken in a region, I do not have meshes active.

And, same behave in regions I use meshes

 Not at addon airports ? No airport enhancement modules ( Rex, Kinertek etc) ? 

You have that in pure vanilla MFS ?

EDIT If you want to check there I am on parking 189 in KMIA with a heavy along me.  You will not see me (MP off)  but maybe the 748.

Yes, tested, same in KMIA.

And I have absolutely no addons for that region ... means whole south and north america.

 

OK, I know now whats going on:

I use the IVAO X-CSL AI Traffic. These also include the car I pictured above (IVAO_ZZZC)

So. all IVAO models hover, other traffic, I have disabled.

 

As IVAO isn't currently supporting MSFS as far as I know, I can't complain
