I have had some thoughts along these lines.

Fatty: " I'd love to see those trees cause some damage, or other random obstacles, and I think folks would try a little harder to make it to the runway"

How about damage for hitting the sheep?  That should cause some ditching problems (as well as a few tears for a few flyers!!)

I would like to see skins for the aircraft...


Exp:  JG-2 could have its own skin just as the 56th fighter group or Buc's etc...

This way just as in real life some pilots had visually identified aces... It would be the pilots discretion of what skin to have on his aircraft along with squadron only skins that can only be used by members of the squadron.

Now to keep from having the rainbow brite skin with barney on the tail, all skins would have to be submitted and approved by HTC...

If you dont like the waste of HD space then use the default skins...

This should be very easy to implement on HTC's end and for the end user. Correct me if i'm wrong HTC . I noticed you changed the paint job on the g-10 or was that a whole other model back a few versions ago..


This would add a personal touch to their aircraft for those who want it..

Jeeeze... Score cards?? Rewards?? Point system?? Medals?? Pink gawdamned airplanes??? frequent flyer miles???

We don't need no stinking scorecards!  

How bout; we put HT in a pink plane; with a big white "SHOOT ME FIRST" written thru a bullseye logo on the side; top and bottom and establish 1 free months play if yah can kill him on alternate tuesdays; excluding the first and third month of the season on odd numbrered leap years...

Better.. how bout setting the system up so that a chute shooters chute won't open.. ever.   That's something we'd all enjoy.

My favorite idea is for bases to have a zone of control radius around them.

If you ditch or bail over neutral or enemy zone of control, you are counted as a kill on the scorecard because if this were reality you would be out of action either getting back to friendly lines or in a POW camp.

If you ditch in a friendly zone of control, you are not counted as a kill on the scorecard because if this were reality you would be able to resume flying immediately (baring injury).  I leave bailing out here because you would have a problem with people bailing as someone pulled on their 6 to avoid the death.
