Yes, Hans Ulrich Rudel said this many times in his book Kriegstagesbuch. Many a rescue were performed spur of the moment. One of those times leading to his capture and subsequent escape. This would be great action I think.

i've seen mods that can make contrails stay longer and craters stay longer, but if we had a mod that could keep a bailed out pilot from disappearing too soon, we could rescue him.

example: an A-20 ditches in the water, you bail out and have maybe 1 or 2 life rafts and a pilot bobbing in the water. our server software reads the log file and records the X/Y location of the ditch. If we land a PBY at those coordinates (with in a radius) it can be recoreded as a rescue and add 1 more pilot to the pilot count.

the problem is the pilots disappear before the rescue plane can arrive. With the pilot gone, we can't see where to land or where the rescue should take place.

can this be done?
