i know its a long shot and really wouldn't do anything for the game, but, can we get folding wings for the blue planes? i just think it would be a cool add.

Until you go and try to take off without unfolding them first.

all for them being redone / skinned so they don't have that OCTAGON appearance on the nose, but hope they keep the cockpit/instrument panel  near what it is now, some of them other planes you can barely read what the guages are telling you.......

oh yeah, please please lighten the bore site screen, NB will not fly the hogs until that is remedied.........hehe

Well, since we don't have to pack 'em in below decks, I suppose it doesn't add much in that context... But wow, that would shorten your landing distance.

Actually not a half bad idea.
To prevent forgetting to unfold me they can juist have it so they start off up and automatically fold down then the engine is spun up

Or how about a launch animation? When you spawn, instead of going righ to your plane you get a brief animation of your aircraft being brought up on deck and having the wings unfold? Anyone who's in the air will ALSO see this animation.
