A weapon foci does not add it's rating to the power of the attack, it adds
dice to the combat pool / skill (as I can't remember anything at the moment -
gimme 4 minutes).

A weapon foci Monowhip would do, my ruling, normal whip damage in the astral,
except that instead of being stun damage, it would be physical damage (as per
the rules for astral damage). A Monowhip has it's most damaging properties in
the physical world, not in the astral world at all.

A light-based spirit is called a Spirit of the Fiery Firmament, as of this
time, there is no known name for a Light Elemental, unless you allow para-
elements to exist in your game. There might be the possibility of a Light
Elemental for a wujen mage from the Orient, as the elementality of Light does
exist in their magical beliefs.

As for the helicopter, Blue Thunder or Airwolf, sorry, I don't remember too
much about Airwolf, and from what I remember about Blue Thunder, just make it
a Aguilar-EX variant type meant for police/security work rather than as a
military chopper only.
