All plane sets on all sides is not an 'historical arena.'
That's so everyone can fly what they wish.

I'm not being silly.  I've logged thousands of hours in commercial airliners as a business passenger.  One of the reasons they like you to remain seated with your seat belt on is turbulance, regardless of altitude.

What's silly is thinking that once above a certain altidude all turbulence ends just because one day you took a short, low altitude pleasure ride and it was calm.

I said as a rule of thumb the higher you go the smoother it gets. you know this. anyone who's flown more than an hour on an airliner knows this.

I spent a number of years in the front office of a 727 for Eastern Airlines   prior to it going bust, I flew the shuttle between kewr and kiad and kewr to kbos and you are just so wrong.

Airfield limitions not aircraft limitions, you really don't get it.

No, I get it. You want an 'historical limitation' in a non-historical environment that is
not really an improvement to the game.

You don't know if it would be an improvement or not.

I had always wanted to see field limits.  How many aircraft and type of aircraft could be upped at a time from a field based on field size.  
Small airfields should be limited to fighters,  medium fields a mix of fighters and medium bombers.  Large airfields would have fighters, medium bombers and the big stuff, B24, Lancaster, B29 and B17’s.

Why in the hell is there ALWAYS SOMEONE trying to change this game to their own liking--people talk about players leaving--if you start putting restrictions on this game people will leave...when i come into this game,i want to fly what i want,where i want,when i want...if the base i'm at is capped and down--i want to go somewhere else..same for gv'ing--putting restriction's on what i can fly or when i can fly or drive and where to do so is A BAD IDEA.PURE AND SIMPLE...so leave it to hell alone...don't you think hitech creations know's all this..they already shown that they are working on a new map...and i'm sure they are working on numerous other things..but i serously doubt they will put and restriction's on gameplay--more than they already have. :airplane: :joystick:
