Like I say, I don't think it's a bad game idea. Excitement is always good

But to escape from vultures is easy: shoot them first, and you'll never have to go sky-diving again

I enjoyed being able to look around in EAW while floating down under the chute.

....Now you can run forth with your joystick fully lean forward or you can run in zig-zag when you lean the joystick left and right

not sure if you'll be able to control your chute, but oleg already stated we will be able to man AA guns, and even drive vehicles at a later stage, so having our pilot walking/running around the airfield might not be all that far off.

right now it would be more practical if we could at least switch to a briefing hut and view some maps, have weather reports, and get ATC reports on the position of enemy and friendly formations, that be a nice start.

after that maybe some animation of the pilot running to his plane for a scramble, or maybe him diving into an air raid shelter would be an improvement from what we have now.

If your plane is low on fuel/ammo or damaged. It would be good if you could land at your base, step out of your aircraft and walk to another one on the base. Jump into that one, taxi out and takeoff.
