For PT's it's easy now.  Hit shft-S and wait till you hear the engine idle down.  You will see the speedo is at zero and that's "stopped".  The trick is to be in the right place (task group/port) to get the landing. 

I have never failed to get a good landing in a gv.  Autofilm your sorties, and if you get a ditch when you think you should have gotten a landing send the film in.  I have never know HTC to ignore a bug that's a bug...  Never...

I'm really not sufficiently fussed about it to want to claim back perks etc but across the board the end of sorties needs looking at. If you go to the effort of flying your beat up plane with a wounded driver and half a tailplane back home and landing 1/2 inch from the runway, you should not be winding up with a ditch.

Similarly if you drive your silly little tank for two hours to get to some arbitrary line of demarcation so you can land in, the should be some indication of when you arrive. Or not

Half an inch off the runway a ditch? Certainly!  You did NOT complete the mission because you missed the runway by half an inch. It's an all or nothing thing, try harder next time.

Gv landing save are the same. Learn the rules and it is pretty easy to do it right

At least we don't have grass airfields, because we wouldn't be able to successfully land at them. 

[danny76]

Absolutely. No one can land on grass and  survive. Never been done. Certainly not in the likes of aircraft of the vintage that we all pretend to fly. Why the tales of CO's cussing out badly wounded pilots for rolling off the end of the runway whilst unconscious from blood loss are legion. Although bellying your plane with perfectly serviceable u/c because you stop easier and quicker is absolutely no problem

I have never gotten a ditch sitting on concrete.

It is possible if you are going slow enough but not completely stopped; I've had it happen several times.  You should hit E and make sure the vehicle has stopped moving and stopped pitching on it's suspension (yes, AH vehicles have working suspensions).

If they make a change in the landing/ditch setup I hope this is it, land with your wheels up and its a ditch no matter where you stop. Keep it the way it is with wheels down.

Danny games engineered in texas are immediately anti English. It's just you my friend.

[BaldEagl]

After thousands of GV sorties I've never not landed successfully on concrete.  You're either still moving or your controller is spiking creating movement.

Now I understand. That's no problem then. As everyone knows it is impossible to discriminate against straight white English males.

I was thinking a little red and green paint would fix the issue.

Red/green paint? I see no red or green paint.. Please explain...  And provide more pics

The "End Sortie" is green, if it is safe to exit your ride.  "Red" if it is not safe to exit.

[Lusche]

What means "safe to exit" in this context? Is it just about sitting still or does it account for enemy cons in the vicinity, which is important for a "safe" exit in GV?

[Skuzzy]

All I know is, right at this moment, is if it shows it green, you are cleared to exit with a good landing.
