Baumer can you make missions using air starts for fighters or bombers?

Sorry to jump in, but I read in the tutorial that you can.  Of course, some of the things I've read in the tutorial haven't panned out for me, i.e. res files, transfer of arena settings, cue cards, etc.

So in theory you could make a pacific campaign  where you can air spawn, engage in the action and then RTB to a CV in the area?

Not that I'm looking to write the mission,  just have a terrain in mind and then I'll let baumer make the missions...lol

It would only work if the CV was stationary.  Since normal CVs move, it's impossible to take off & land on em for offline missions.  AIs operate on an X, Y & Z location timecode.  Getting a moving CV to be at that EXACT location at that EXACT time would be pretty much impossible.  I have a few missions I'm working on right now, but I'd be happy to pump out a small map with stationary CVs when I get a chance.
