Default Street Landings!?

I was just wondering, how many of you have tried landing in urban areas?

I've been successful landing in Berlin, with the FW190A5, and the Yaks along with La's in Stalingrad and Berlin. But it took me about 5-7 crashes just with the FW to get it right, and perfect. I even have some pics of the FW landed on the street. One of them is my wallpaper, but I don't have the ability to show any of them at the moment.

So anyway, have any one of you succeeded at landing on the streets of Berlin, Stalingrad, or anywhere else urban?

the town of Dover.

From the coast heading inland you will see a nice long road, its hard but can be landed on providing nobody is shooting at you.

Also the bridge in the dover port. Though not as easy now with the joystick due to lack of brakes.

Have been trying (well not for a while now) to land next to the brandenburg gate so i can get a nice pic

Ah yes that long road with trees both sides. I once landed an IL-4 with 1 engine destroyed on that road. lol the wheels were only just on the edge of the tarmac and the wings just within the trees. TurboX was there to see it.

Ive landed on the roads in Sicily, and Ive landed on the outskirts of Stalingrad, Tried Berlin main city but the streets were overhung by buidings jutting out making it impossible to land. Dover, I landed on the beachfront under the cliffs, the harbour walls, but not tried in the town yet.

I did that road through the park leading up to the Brandenburg gate too - didn't realise it was like a causeway until I was down and (even though it's a game) held my breath until I got to a stop!! More luck than judgement!

from over just head over the sea (towards france), as you get closer the map opens up and france becomes visible.

Though hard to land on as you dont have any shadows in france for some reason so its hard to judge how low you are when landing.

Bottom right of map, really short landing area cause it forces you to turn around.

In regards to updates/sequals/dlcs will there be an increase in playable areas? Also, does the existing DLC add a new area?
