a little tip,  use 25% fuel , build your speed up with flaps fully up.   Then hit one notch nearer the end of the runway.  Pull up to 1000feet and your drones WILL form up.

Another tip, particularly usefull with the AR234's.  When you spawn onto the runway, hold the brakes until the engines get fully wound up, then release the brakes.  You'll lift a lot sooner.
I edit a lot of my posts.  Get used to it.

Regardless of his bomber comment, I agree that putting airfields with steep hills at the ends of several runays is illogical, unrealistic, unhistoric, and just dumb.
Well he should have kept it out because it had nothing to do with base layout. I've upped 262s only to have to tower because I was facing a steep hill.  So is HTC bias against 262 pilots?  :rolleyes:

     I think the hills can come in handy sometimes.  Like when you're rolling towards
the base after running out of fuel....or when you engage the turbo-gerbil 5000 on ur
GV to get into action faster  :D

LOL ... it's not that the airfields are messed up ... they are an "object" on a map. It is the actual placement of an airfield on the map terrain that is in question.

His in-game name is ... waldren ... and we will all be waiting with anticipation on the release of stephen waldron's super correct map that he is currently working on.

I guess challenges are too much for some to handle.
