Lots of feedback - largely positive - but no real answers...is there any 'official' stance on this?
Personally, I'd love to see this. With two very promising Channel maps in development, an increasing number of increasingly accurate aircraft from pre-BoB to post-war, this is one thing that would increase options open to mission builders and players alike. For example, the BoB would be all that more realistic in feel (from both sides) if there was a real sense of a running battle, rather than 'mission accomplished' atmosphere, that would arise if Brit fighters could land, rearm and take up the fight again. Nobody's saying you have to, and you might be too tired/badly shot up/bored/whatever...but surely it can't be a bad thing to have this option?
However, there have also been persistent problems with getting the AI to taxi to takeoff (although I seem to remember that some progress was being made in this direction a few months back, has anyone got any info?), so there are two pretty big issues to be dealt with it seems.
So +many from me - but is it a realistic hope?
