Title: Dump fuel?
Post by: kevykev56 on October 02, 2005, 11:37:59 PM

Not sure it would even be a relevant situation.


I would like to be able to dump fuel from an aircraft. Of course only those capable of dumping fuel. It could increase the glide distance if your engine is out. Got a full load and about to get into a fight? dump fuel to lighten the load before engaging.

Again, im not even sure that it was possible to dump fuel in WW2. If it was however It would be a nice feature to add.

I'd like to see it on bombers. I don't think fighters had it, and the only plane that would benefit (really benefit) from dumping excess fuel is the heavy bombers in the game.

I like that, maybe even add the option to pump fuel to other tanks?

If one tank gets hit, pump the remaining fuel to the intact tanks
I saw this in the movie 'Memphis Belle'
