I don't think you'll be able to land on trains because they have a "damage model" and when two "damage boxes" collide, well it's damaging.    ;)

I have 90 votes and only 2 stars... so my opinion is 90 times less valid.

EDIT: 91 now

Surely two planes can rub in the sky and not sufddenly die...  :D

so if I ever gently land a Zero on a train.. just kissing the top of it with my tires....

NO crash should be detected....

 ;)

but of course... is it going to modeled this way? hmm.. Idunno?

I've never just tapped another plane, but I've also never hit another plane and not lost anything...

At the speeds these things are flying at, substantial damage will happen to a plane if it tries to land.

Biplanes OTOH, are a different matter.

How fast does the type of trains that will be represented here be flying at??  saround 60mph?? 80?? idunno how fast trains. are. hehe  :D

but if they are at that speed, a zero should have no problem landing on one.. Ican get a zero down to around 70knts... should be really short roll  ;)

Would be kinda cool too  :D like Knight rider lol

maybe we can even have MOVEING rearm PADS! lol.. wait.. never mind. hehe my Ideas are getting alittle Quake like  :D

Come on guys.  262-- cockpit's done.
Hurricanes? Anyone seen cockpit shots?
How about the interior of the greyhound?
Now what about the programming issueS?

My guess is they've targeted Sept. 1, but we'll probly see it sometime before Sept. 15.

In the interview, saw cockpit shot of the IIC. IID prolly has same cockpit art.

I dunno how fast trains in '40s went.. I figured they maxed out around 40MPH. <shrug>

When do the WBIII freeloaders have to decide whether to pay for it?

Apparently the deadline has been extended until September 3rd (Memorial Day plug I guess), so not until the first Tuesday in September probably.

Just under 2 weeks.

You can forget about landing on the trains.  The quad 20mm  rail car's will blow you apart before you've got the chance.   ;)
