Biggles3 Pilot	posted 10-30- 03:04 PM when Mace gets that carrier launch thingy could you someone make a skijump carrier so you can launch the kestrel off end you can get back onto the carrier by hovering over it and landing on it. what do you think? maybe someone could make a carrier now so we can test cos i think the kestrel has enough poke to get off the ski jump without the launcher! ------------------ Biggs is back!!!

semmern Pilot	posted 10-31- 02:19 AM Yeah, Mighty's right. That's the whole point about the ski jumps: The Harriers can take off with a big increase in load over the same distances, with the same (or less) speed. IP: Logged
