how about making it where if, you abuse your aircraft/vehicle/boat, then you can have a mechanical failure? Say that you are just cruising along, and bam losing oil pressure...darn mechanic forgot to tighten oil drain plug bolt...well it might not be a good idea, but hey worth a shot.

Then everyone would start vulching the friendly bases trying to hit the mechanics

And btw...what do you mean with 'abusing your aircraft'?

what i meant by abusing an aircraft frank was somethng, like making it to where you could over rev an engine, a lose precious hp, and maybe even seize an engine without haveing to damage the prop. i guess we already have these things in AH, but just a thought on my part. but lets get the HE-111 if nothing else...lol

Things like this are brought up fairly often speak. While they are good ideas I think it is not persued to make the game playable to a wider variety of players. While some players would like all this realism, others would not and HTC could lose business. I believe HTC tries to find that fine line between full realism and ease of flying to get as many costumers as he can.
