I think the ofp engine is best suited to the slow flying planes of ww1 , 2 , Korea and Vietnam ( what about the T-28C Trojan anyone making this, i may add it too my list is no1 is )

If the maps were bigger then it would be fine for the jets, but as they run out of room so quickly you are always turning.

In real life if you were operating in a 12 X 12 area you would always be turning.

Sometimes the planes are best used in the background when flown by the ai

eg. They may put doubt in you mind as for you and you're squad running in the open to you're objective. A recon plane my detect you and sent tanks to you're location. etc...

If bis included the tailgunner option they would be alot more fun in mp . Hope they do for OFP2

I have a working version of a Cessna T37 Dragonfly that was used in Vietnam. This plane was very effective as a trainer and a light attack role.

Even though I have made a couple of jets (A4 and Harrier) I prefer the slower ones like the T37.

I think as far as air attack goes, OFP has a lot of airspace. Finding one's way back to the island can be a mission on its own, unless you use autopilot landing.

Some issues regarding aircraft speed. handling (especially when turning), fuel consumption, need to be addressed. Hopefully this will be resolved in OFP2.

AHHH! That's the trainer I was missing from my USAF campaign project!

hey guys

some of you mentioned some civllian planes in your posts... like the Piper Cub and such. Any chance you guys still have to links to them or the file itself? I've been dying to fly around the map in a small civ aircraft.

Congrats. Digging a 6 years old thread is somehow a record...

Anyway, look here.
