Bailing out

[Jimatay]

Is there (or will there be) any way to turn off the automatic bailing out? I friggin' hate that.

Yeah, I've landed some real train wrecks before, and that's on a carrier! I suppose because of the reasonably limited damage model, it only forces you to bail out when it's certain you won't make it far.

To be honest, people seem to bail out pretty quickly. I swear most of the bomber crews crowd round the door when they see me coming. They're out in seconds! lol

Hehe That reminds me of the Dogfights episode where the pilot of a B-24 went back to the bomb bay to bail out only to find that his copilot had freaked out and not jumped yet. The pilot just booted him out of the plane!

Ha, I remember that one. He said the copilot didn't jump because he couldn't see the ground lol.

That Dogfights programme sounds good. It's not available on UK iTunes though, and I don't have Sky (History Channel) anymore

I want to be able to kill bailed-out enemies.

I want to be able to mash them with my prop, or snag their lines with my wings and rip their chutes with gunfire.

I really hope they make this happen in the full game, but very much doubt they will, also i think it would give the game a 18 rating
