Modern Aircraft Usage in Map

[Toni Carrera]

Hi Fellow Pilots,

 

With reference to the Normandy Map, am I able to use all the modern jets I own on it? I will be creating missions with the editor

 

With reference to the 'Modern Jets', I am talking about such planes as the Harrier, A-10C, and of course, my love, the F/A 18c.

 

Thanks in advance

You can use all your planes on any map you own.

You might find the some runways a bit short for some a/c and some parking spots are on grass and most modern jets won't be able to use those few spots to spawn but other than that all will work.

As long as you are on the airfield, taxiing on the grass is no problem for Jets on Normandy.

I recently tried my Harrier from Tangmere, which is now concrete.

Was fine with the Harrier, but I have to say that I'd be far more dubious about trying to land or take off in most jets, particularly the F5 and Mig21, for which it felt a bit tight.

Caen-Carpiquet has also been upgraded recently to include concrete. It might also be suitable for some of the jets.

 

 

Although the OP asked about jets, I'd like to add that the Normandie map is brilliant for helicopters. :-)

put a carrier there for your F-18 and call it

At first it's a bit of a challenge to land on short runways, but you are getting used to it pretty fast.

It is even possible to land the MiG-21 without the drag shute on a 1600-1700m runway. You can use every flyable aircraft on these airfields, maybe not with full load, but that makes it even more interesting.

By the way, the shortest runway of all maps is not in Normandy, but on the Persian Gulf Map. On the island west of Dubai is an airfield with a 800m runway. The shortest in Normandy has 1100m or 1000m if I remember correctly.

Just find a long straight dirt road.
