How about you also deprive the plane of it's wings as the rotors ARE the helicopters wings.

There is no way that planes or helicopters spawn at that altitude and just fall down. And if a helicopter reaches that altitude and it's hydraulics system or engine fails it will be able to get to the ground if the pilot is trained.

The point is that both vehicles work differently and have different strenghts and weaknesses. That also goes for rockets and other stuff as well.
Just because helicopters work differently it doesn't mean they are worse than a plane.

I have fallen asleep in the suicide seats in the hue. At first you couldn’t take me away from this venture … after it was sleepy time. I’d be asleep in seconds after takeoff … sooth sound all around.
Heli drilling.. bit ago.

I still deal with long lines

i allways wanted some helicopters to implemented in the IL2 series. Before this game was released they showed pics of a gyro copter that was going to be in it.. I sure hope it still makes it in it one day.. And i REALLY hope that one day in future expansions they will add fully helicopters also in this game.. Its a dream

Flying a helicopter is so much more complex then planes.

I ordered it a couple days ago when the pre order came out on Steam.
Anyone try the beta? I haven't had time yet.

The only reason helicopters fly is that they are so unnatural that even the earth rejects them!
