Aircraft as vehicles for taxiing.
#37

If these planes acted like vehicles then all you'd have to do is give them 'Time-out' waypoints then have them 'taxi' back to a parking place. Or maybe just have them cruise cross-country out of sight.

Oh, oh! An idea just struck me! If these are vehicles you could set them up to hit each other. I'm pissing myself thinking of the antics that would happen. Think of what happens when vehicles hit each other or a building - it looks like a Chinese fire drill! Can you imagine six B-29s set to collide in the middle of an air base?

Sorry. Ahem! Back to more serious stuff...

I think this would be a boon to movie makers that could set a bunch of bombers to taxi over to the end of the runway, set up shots of planes waiting to taxi onto the strip, have one plane take off, and the next one taxi into position. By judicious use of camera angles it would seem as though the action never stopped.

Great days all.
