Landing Succesfully

[Vudu15]

Would love to be able to land anywhere within the perimeter of friendly fields especially with damage, in a real world setting you would have made it home.
sure the crew chief for the aircraft in question would be upset but the plane made it to its home station.
Cant tell you the number of times Ive not noticed a missing landing gear and skidded off the runway to a ditch in the middle of a friendly field.

I like the idea. There needs to be where lets say you land your plane near the base. I think they should be able to repair the plane lets say if you got half a wing or an oil leak. Not do this for free though maybe like .50 perk per every thing that's fixed. The normal refuel and ammo still stays the same though. Something like that.

HiTech has said no to this many times in the past.  It is a reward for landing on the runway and it will not be extended to near the runway.

belly land if you are missing a landing gear.  if you have not notice it is missing, check the instruments where it shows if your gears are up or down.  If one of them is red, you have no landing gear.  there is also a damage list the you can active that will tell you what is damage.

My dear boy, think about it...

You are a mechanic (it hardly matters what kind)

My Bf109F4 rolls up with a holed up radiator.

CAN YOU REPLACE THE RADIATOR IN 30 SECONDS?

Didn't think so.

do you think thay can get 24 small bomb's in a b-17 in 30 seconds.if you seed no well thay do in the game. muahaha

Sigh...you know what i meant, repairs (even minor ones) could take hours, days, even. You should consider yourself lucky to make it home missing half a wing, let alone want the game to magically materialize a new fully functional component into you plane.

OMG!I cant get my point across can i get sum backup plz?

Ive flown enough to know about my instruments showing damage it was just an example, I just think its dumb that you've flown however far with damage and possably a PW only drift in at the last second and pass out, and when you come to your over the pad F$%#. Now you've flown all this way to to get a ditch like your miles from your home station and not 200yds from the tower. As to it being a "Reward" what is this a simulator or kindergarden next ill have to make sure I color in the lines????

But no to the repairs near the field i just want to land successfully inside the perimeter of the field, especially on those few times i have a perked aircraft.
Or on vbases and ports as those can be tricky landings under fire and have many obstacles to doge.

LOL.

Once I flew a 8 kill 38J sortie home with damage landed on the pad, was talking to a squaddie, then bailed out instead of .ef  ing.  I was spewing on channel for 30 minutes.

This has been brought up a million times. HT has posted the the runway is the limit, there has to be a limit and that is the one he picked. If he added 20 feet to either side of the runway then people would complain they want 40 feet and so on. So it's the runway for a good landing or nothing.

Yes and like "kindergarten" there are rules, and everyone has to follow them. Learn to play with in those rules like the rest of us.

+1 for this idea ... I mean really, I have had a whole weekend ruined because I got a ditch instead of successful landing ...
