Just thought that it would be really cool if your landing gear could fail, you would then HAVE to perform a belly landing. What do you guys think?:-P

If we could do belly landings that would be cool.

i managed to pull one off today on a field during the Red Cliffs Of Dover Mission, i was on simulator setting, with a gaping whole on my left wing causing me to slump to one side. The plane was loosing fuel, so i thought i might as well try :). the only thing that went wrong was that my propeller broke :L. You just have to keep enough speed so that you aren't dropping rapidly and then skim the ground carefully to stop :)

Was there fuel spraying from your wing? And was your fuel gauge dropping?

fuel was spraying from my wing, but i didn't check the gauge, i could feel the plane dropping though. I reckon that i should make a video of a belly landing to show you guys :)

I didn't know fuel would spray, it would also be cool if the gauge did indeed drop.
Videos are always welcome.:grin:

I don't know if your landing gear can fail, but I know you can break them off if you hit the ground while they are coming out(that's if you wish to keep flying without landing gear).

I absoultly love the first video. Something about it. If only there was a way to remove the continue timer, then it would be even more perfect. :mrgreen:
