Advisement:
It is highly encouraged for all racers to practice the
takeoff and landing plus taxiing and rearming of the
B-29 in either Offline mode or in a custom arena due
to A44 is a small airfield.  The terrain drops off after
the end of runway allowing drones to catch up.

Offline or Custom Arena Setup:
Choose SFMA2016 Terrain.  Go to Clipboard and select
Options then Arena Setup and then Fields.  In Left Window
Box, highlight A44 in drop down menu and leave highlighted.
In same Left Box Window, go to lower right box window
marked Current Country and select Bishops.  While A44 is
still highlighted and Bishop then over in Right Window Box
scroll through the plane list and highlight B-29.  Keep
B-29 highlighted and click either Enable Plane Tab or Enable
At All Fields Tab.

Tower Eye:
Players who arrive after Fields Closed or can no longer
fly the event can watch from CM Eye View. Go to clipboard,
click Options, click Controls, click Map Keys, click View
Select CM Eye Move Forward to highlight, click F7 and click
Set Key.  In Tower, click F5 for outside tower view, click
F7 to activate CM Eye Move Forward. Use throttle control for
speed and joystick to move left, right, up, and down.

Arena Settings:
SFMA2016 terrain
Enable Tower Gods Eye
Full Radar
Fuel Burn 1.0
Auto ack will be set at .001
Object hardness will be MA standard.
No wind.
Normal MA calibration.
Killshooter ON
Fields Closed at T + 5


I will post some screenshots to aid with this.  This has been tested and capable of fun gameplay.

East takeoff shows the terrain dropping off.


Rearm pad on west end of runway.  As you approach from the east, the rearm pad will be on the left side of runway.  All you need is your left wheel in the circle to rearm.  Very carefully after Weapons Complete is on your text buffer after 30 seconds, apply power slowly while making hard right turn with rudder to line up on runway for take off.

Chuck Norris can pick oranges from an apple tree and make the best lemonade in the world. Every morning when you wake up, swallow a live toad. Nothing worse can happen to you for the rest of the day. They say money can't buy happiness. I would like the opportunity to find out. Why be serious?

Less than 16 hours to go.  There will be plenty of Fields to bomb.

"If the base isn't green, blow it to smithereens."

There should be some country strats available also.  They will be worth one point like a town building.

No perk points required.  In SEA 2, the B-29s are FREE!!!!

I never use the Summary part of the logs.  Reading your post, I did take a look and seen what you posted about.  My guess would be that there is a problem and HTC would be the one to fix that.
