Are you thinking of the original NG rules (and perhaps others), where underlined MF meant a flyer? My AH DP rules say MF underlines (heroic movement) give a maximum cost of 1 to enter any hex, so they could still benefit from roads. Or has that been superceded?

Yes, that's the way I read the RAW, too. Trouble with that is, although there's no problem on the DP map, those of us who aspire to developing other maps would have a problem if we put secondary roads through, say, mountains. If terrain costs are in addition, it would mmean it was better to travel off-road! I'm afraid I'll have to flip-flop on this one...
