If some day the friendly collisions will be enable at CT, all this stuff will become more meaningful and important. Good for immersion anyways  :aok
I am okay with friendly collisions, but the spawn issue would be difficult to address.  I would be PO'ed if I spawned and instantly crashed because there was already a plane there..

Possibly friendly collision could be on - but disabled when on runway.

Could this be tied to external view in fighters on runway? As long as you have external view, no collisions.

Sorry, I'm still working on first cup of coffee for the day. Takes 4 or 5 before my cogitations become worthwile.
If they ever are worthwile that is.
Far too many, if not most, people on this Board post just to say something opposed to posting when they have something to say.

I'm not a fan of witch-hunts, but did he not insist that basic landing pattern knowledge was superfluous for CT?  $15 is for AH as we have it now, not CT.  Ehhh, we all have our opinions, but mine is better. :lol

Insist? Hardly.....

I gave an opinion and then posed a question.  :lol

Personally, I enjoy these types of instructions.  Then again, I'm that guy who went and bought Microsoft flight sim and has no problems flying on it for hours in little imaginary airport routes, listening to the boring ATC.

The squeaker gerbils are gonna fly and land the pattern first; then they will command all missions in Cobat Tour.

Sounds like fun, don't it?
