I should have thought to ask for that yesterday since I had to sit and wait 6 hours in anticipation.

Love the new layout by the way

OK I just checked this one. PT boats enabled at A1, don't know about other fields.

Great Map and Great Funtions too, like airstarts at certain fields etc etc

wtg guys

I'd love it if there were a deep snake river type canyon added to it
very narrow with lots of tight turns for training and doing races
and things,

It would also be great if that dueling area had DA settings
though im not sure you can do that

Stuck at work and just curious as to what the "no fly" zones are?  Mountains?  500 mph down draft? :)

Really high walls. The No-fly zones are there to keep you at least 17 miles away (the max AH fog visibilty distance setting) so that the sight of really high walls doesn't kill the feeling of flying in the open sky. :)

Another thing to disable are the filed guns. Again specifically referring to A1.

do the bases change? I noticed that for dive bombing the bases are all rook, and I can't access them. is there different days for different training? The screenshot is different than the map I see different countries in different arenas

The bases for dive bombing start at A-20 on the bish side and you air spawn out over them at 20-K by using the NE runway at A-20.

For those not familiar with the air spawn, it drops you in the air at a given altitude and you simply hit G and point the nose down.The reason for this is that it cuts down on flight time.

Bases shouldn't change in there but you can change sides at will. Points, sides and country loyalty do not matter in the Training Arena.
To switch you can use the Change Country option in the O'Club on your clipboard or the dot command dot country X where 1=Bishop, 2=Knight and 3=Rook.
His map might look slightly different than yours for a few reasons. He may have changed some of the default colors and of course nothing will look exactly the same on two different monitors.
Also, they may be some minor tweaking by the AH2TC to fine tune the map to their exact specifications.

Something like that I'd try offline.
The 'No Fly Zones' are there for a reason and I'd assume the AH2TC would heavily frown upon people doing that regularly or any time at all.
No fly obviously means No Fly.
And yes I'm a party pooper.
