Title: Landing vs. Ditching
Post by: pembquist on December 30, 2010, 01:25:51 AM

So I landed and pulled off the runway and clicked on "end sortie" and was rewarded with "you ditched" I didn't ditch I landed.  How do I land so that the Host knows I have landed? Thankyou all.

Need to end sortie on pavement or if it's a dirt field, that portion that is the graded runway.

as long as it is a concrete you can end sortie any place. V base, port, anywhere just has to be on concrete at a friendly base.

Point wise it goes like this. Bail gets the least amount of points then comes ditching then comes landing successfully.

As everyone has said...you must be on concrete...any concrete to lad successfully. That includes V bases and towns but unsure about factories...kind forgot

No landing at factories or cities.  Might as well land in a field.  Goes to closest tower in that case.  If friendly then a ditch, if enemy then a capture.  Note that CVs count as towers as regards ditching.

I got caught like that.  Was up chasing buffs over our Strat'.  Got a couple but sustained a PW'nd.  Managd to land on a street in the city.  Ditched...... :huh
