Title: Rearm Pad ID
Post by: earl1937 on February 13, 2015, 09:43:49 AM
 :airplane: Would it be to much trouble to place a "flag" on top of the rearm pad building where it could be located easier? Some of us old guys have bad eyes and on some of the bases, the building blends in with buildings in background and it is difficult to see.

Not commenting on your wish Earl. I just want to remind you that when you're on the ground you can use F3 mode, then use F8 to pan your view, 0 on the keypad to rotate your viewpoint up and keypad 4 and 6 to look around.

I was thinking the same thing...  I don't know if I could find the rearm pad if I didn't to that.

at the end of every runway we have a re-arm pad so if you just go to the end of the runway, look left or right and it will be next to you. We do not have rearm pads anyplace else, so don't look anyplace else  :aok

Earl,

Are you having the problem that the slight mound for the auto ack is invisible to you, so you destroy your bomber's gear trying to get to the pad?

:airplane: Have done that, but now that "dumbee" can use f--3---f-8, shouldn't happened again.
