That's unfortunate but if we put them in the middle of the map than AI will have problems with mountains if player set their flight low. So we had to chose between "boring" scenery and AI crashing all the time.

Also, is the Fokker really so hard to fly? It stalls or snap when using full aileron.
Reports says that it had nasty tendency for wing tip drops.
Quote from Finnish pilot:
Quote:
"we found soon that it is pleasantly stable when firing. Its behaviour was quite good, but tad some temperament, that could make things hot for unprepared pilot. Stalling without any warning, even in higher speed, could be very surprising for a unexperienced pilot, but most dangerous was landing. Nose pointed high up and tailplane losed effectivness. If the speed dropped too much during approach, you had to have a lot of luck and we really lost couple of planes during landing"
