Some really really good times can be had in the sim just tring to survive a crash or belly landing. Watching your plane breaking apart and then exiting the plane after you've survived is a pretty good feeling. Here's a crazy example:

that is not possible though , the plane weighs over 2000 pounds , the second it would have touched the ground it would have gripped it and flown apart.

especially if it was inverted

belly landings are not even a skill thing , they are a luck thing

Yes I realize this was an extreme example I posted. I've been playing 5 years and never had anything like that happen LOL. Here is something even better for you....1:20s for the EPIC win

C.B. Sullenberger would disagree with you

Well... there won't be any crash landings in BOP but the dogfighting will of course be great!
