It would be much cheaper just to equip everyone in the plane with individual parachutes.

I saw video of a plane... I think it was from warbirds... where a damaged engine on a twin engine plane cause it to take off like a helicopter.  =)

TheThang and I were doing that in a H2H the arena the other day. DA map, A1, Wind set with the S radio bubble filled, 127 in both speed boxes. NE launch, pull back hard and wait for engines to start. Plane will pick up and rotate left, pranging the left prop. Wind holds it up, engine rotates it; helicopter.
