Id like the rearm pads to be slightly larger or just have a spot on the runway itself for rearming.

Reason?

Makes it easyer to rearm large bombers without risking to smack the wings in the building next to the pad.

I agree, the system used on the CVs works very well.

I would like to see you be able to change ord load outs on rearm pads. You just landed in your P-51D from attacking a VBase which is covered with vehicles. Your last sortie you only took guns to protect friendly bombers from enemy fighters, but now you need rockets and bombs. instead of ending sortie you just roll onto the rearm pad and load rockets and bombs.

That and/or gun load outs as well, also I woulden't mind seeing some sort of re-arm pad that could do repairs, or maybe if you drove it into the fighter/bomber hanger, you could get repairs done. Obviously the time for that would be a bit longer.

maybe repairing your plane could cost a few perk points? Fix flaps cost 5 perks, aileron 10, elevator 10, radiator and oil 20, etc etc.

So you exit out, get your name in lights, pick a new plane/loadout.

Rearms don't repair damage, they just hot load the same load you started with.

You want changes, then accept the consequences.  :)

do u mean for GV's or for aircraft? if it is for aircraft u would need a runway which would turn a Vbase in2 an airfield . but if u do mean for a GV then id have thought they had 1 allready (but obviously not or u woudnt have mentioned it).

if this is supposed to be a realistic or as realistic as possable then u would need a runway just for accuracy's sake( so a vbase would become an airfield) . i know u can land and take of without a runway but in "real life" landings at bases other than airfields was only done in an emergancy situation which is the way its used now by people who have run low on fuel or have battle damage.
