Does the Space Wolf psychic power "Jaws of the World Wolf" affect Deff Koptas (jetbikes)?

Have a sneak peek at the FAQ - it states it does.

Jet pack infantry(which are on the ground most of the time) are smart enough to use the pack to hover over the chasm; Jetbikes (which are always airborne) feel the need to dive right into it.

Although it is simpler to just keep both of those units as their parent type(jump infantry/Bikes respectively) instead of nitpicking sub-types.

Obviously the jetbikes land betveen movement (since they get the dangerous terrain test if ending its movement in diff/dang terrain). And probably the jump/jet packs has an instant jetboost while it takes a while to start up the bike engines. So, the rule actually make all kinds of sense. Now, considering walkers are unaffected while monstrous creatures only get a +1 on their I test, thats another thing

I always considered the Jet bike ending in difficult taking a dangerous terrain test to be the biker crashing into a tree/wall.

Also for some reason i was thinking that jetbikes had the same ability as Skimmers to hover over difficult if they so choose(thus not getting the Cover save); but it seems I was mistaken(I don't ever use them, currently so...)

I was just fooling around. Wouldnt trust myself to get the facts straight
