repair pad
« on: April 11, 2010, 10:56:31 PM »
opposite to the rearm pad on a runway, it would repair pesky damage like feul leaks, oil leaks, pilot wounds, radiator hits, etc. this would basically have no point in the MA, as you could simply end the sortie and save a minute or two of time, but i know that many people would badly want this for fso's and scenarios. i mean, how many times have you flown fso and had to ditch because you got hit in a feul tank even tho you were able to rearm? i think this would be a good idea.  :aok

Yes a 30 second re-arm is unrealistic, but rearming aircraft to take back off and enter a fight did happen.  Fixing a fuel tank, or a bullet through the engine, was no where close to the time it would take to rearm an aircraft.

btw, 1000th post, I feel important now.

Why should a tank get repaired in secs with its tracts damage or main turret gun damage?  But a fuel leak, radiator damage, oil leak, gun damage and so on can not be repair?

Because a tank is just some vehicle, and an aircraft is a complex machine  :D

tank repair is cheesy. I'd rather see no repairs to anything.
