I disagree that it's a known bug, if it was, I'd have known about it, right?  Anyway, I guess what you are actually saying is that HTC knows that the there is a bug in the code and they  just don't want to fix it.  Also is there a place to go and read about all the known bugs in the game.  I mean by rights HTC should return the 191 perk points that the known bug cost me.  I guess HTC wouldn't really want to have such a document , you know , pay us the $14.99 a month for code that contains the following Known bugs.

I remember reading about this from early this year about 262's crashing out of the hangar.  but I do not recall if it was fixed or if it was going to be fixed.  game is not perfect but they do try to make it.

I believe the 262 bug popped up when the b29 was added didn't it? When it started occuring in mass numbers, Hitech DID put a warning out to everyone in the MOTD in-game. It warned people to not up 262's from the hanger due to a bug that causes them to tower as they started their engines. The MOTD opens automaticly as you enter the LW. So when this bug was happening on widescale cases, HTC did warn everyone. They didnt pay ppl perk points back because i dont think they can tell who truly lost perkies due to The bug, and who could just be lieing to try to get free perkies. not to call YOU a lier, but for all they know, you could be lieing right now to try to squeeze some perkies from them.

Speaking of 262 bugs tho, There seems to be a bug with its altimeter.  One of the altitude points is missing.

just out of curiosity why would you spawn an aircraft out of the hangar?  specially a 262?

To make it more realistic, in real life you don't get into the plane when it's already on the runway.

you watched pearl harbor too many times...in reality the only planes in the hangars were in for repairs/maintenance and only when hangars were available. otherwise they were parked at paddocks where bases had them, along tree lines when available, along one or both sides of a taxiway and/or an open area close to the runway.

To my knowledge, we've never been able to reproduce this bug, so a film would be a big help, thanks.

I never said you start your engine in the hangar. I in real life you don't get into your airplane when it's already on the runway. Normally you push/tow your plane out of the hangar, than get in, start your engine and taxi out to the runway.

that may be the way it works in peace time when you're wanting to fly your cessna but not during ww1, ww2, korea or vietnam, the plane was only in a hangar for repairs/maintenance, otherwise it sat out in the weather.

That depends on whether you have a hangar for it, how often it's used, what kind of plane, and what kind of weather. Sure you have planes that are parked most of the time outside, but you also have planes that are parked most of the time in the hangar.

in real life if i knew there was something that would make my plane crash in the hangar, i definitely would not board the plane there.

Well I'm sure if he knew that his plane would explode he would have spawned on the runway.

depended on the airbase...on the grass fields the aircraft would get parked very close to one end of the runway and facing it. i guarantee you when a plane was taken in to or out of a hangar, it wasn't with the engine running, it was getting manhandled or towed by a vehicle.

Absolutely but we don't have the ability to push/tow our plane out of the hangar and we can't spawn on the ramp, so the only other option is to taxi out of the hangar on your own power.

On grass fields you would still want to take off into the wind. Some airports have a rare exception where terrain forces you to take off and land at one end of the airports. So if you land on runway 18 you have to take off runway 36.

well it doesnt matter what happens in rl as this is not real life.  so if you dont want to lose your perks, dont spawn a 262 in the hangar.  and that's that.
