You are correct Fabianfred, although I have accomplished it by just putting them on the carrier (moving carrier in a coop) with no fuel. The important thing is to make sure they are not carrying any ordinance because they will drop it as soon as they spawn.
To simulate a Midway type scenario, where aircraft are caught on deck with fuel and ammo on board, I put a single flight of 4xfighters on first with zero fuel, then another two flights of 4xdive/torpedo bombers loaded down with full fuel and bombs and torpedoe. They will spawn behind the fighters, start up, and just sit there all mission long at idle, waiting for the fighters to take off. They make a nice explosion when the torpedos hit too! :wink:
To my knowledge, we've never been able to put Stationary planes on a static or moving carrier, which I have always lamented.
I would love to be able to stack the deck with planes with their wings folded.
