Take offs/landings? / Co-op against bots?

We get a single player campaign, single player somewhat customizable training missions and MP. They said 3 of 4 MP types are team based due to the 4th one being a free for all deathmatch with no teams (or sanity).

The article states there are no SP take offs, but if you read through the comments there is a correction by the author, Tim Stone, in which he says some of the SP missions will include takeoffs. Hopefully there is a host option to start players on the ground or in the air in multiplayer.

Your probably right about the lack of co-op though, I just saw that three out of four multiplayer modes would be team based and assumed the other one would be co-op.

Yeah I saw that, which is why I edited. That's good news. Could be better if it was an option on all of them though.
Co-op in the training missions would've been sweet as well. Maybe on the next game.

Hopefully the training missions will be like the Quick Mission builder in the older Il2s. It would have been nice to try that with some friends. Possibly the reason why some of the missions start in the air is that some are like the mission I have seen where you are controlling the guns only on a bomber, and taking off is no fun unless you are the pilot.
