Fuel options should be expanded.

IRL I can take fuel to the pound or gallon as I desire.

Perhaps in increments of 10% or 20%?

-1 if you are able to repair a plane on the rearm/refuel pad-people would be landing 20-30-40 kills instead of 3-5-10.
this sim is getting more and more arcadeish all the time.
land your damaged plane kills or no kills take up a new one. that's the its always been since I have been playing.
that's the way it always should be.

It would be nice, as others have stated, to be able to select weapons load out and fuel load out as well.

The repair idea is kind of bizarre in my opinion. If the aircraft has to go to the mechanic, the sortie is over. It’s as simple as that.

The fuel and ammo load outs work because you can hang a bomb pretty darn fast and changing fuel quantities are as simple as giving the POL guy a thumbs up.

Would be cool if it was a dot command that you had to use before full stop on the pad and if you didn’t get that command done before full stop, an added 20 seconds to finish loading and refueling as the ground crew was caught off guard by your sudden need run marathons.

They could also tack on an addition 10 seconds for loading larger bombs than the original configuration and perhaps reduce time if you are taking less fuel than the original fuel load.

It could work, I would like to see this at the very least, considered by HiTech and the crew.

Now, if you were to suggest changing fuel options and load-out options on the rearm pad ....

I like the OP's suggestions. But to this.... +1000000

I pretty much only use WEP once a fight has gone to terminal slow speed circling.

Sadly, my stick hasn't allowed WEP to stay on for over a year.

Time for a new stick.

I am having second thoughts myself on the repairs, that idea was a bit rough in the edges and not well thought through before thrown out there. So I would like to take that back to the drawing board.

But I am still glad I presented my OP to you guys, because the ideas coming back regarding refuelling pad options are really really good ideas. I would love to see Hitech take a handfull of the best ideas coming forth here to his drawing board, that would really be neat.

You don't need to rearm to land 20+ kills...

It's difficult to understand why WEP isn't automatically recharged. On those planes where it is a heat issue they would have cooled off and in the other it's the only consumable not refilled  :headscratch:

YAY, someone's thinking!

Think of it as topping off your radiator (or recharging your NOX).

Aero engines don't cool when off so I still feel temperature should affect it for the planes where temperature is the limiting factor.

Now airplanes that have consumables for WEP, then I could see seeing "refilling" but still with the temperature limitation.
