Use a helicopter or learn how to not run of fuel and you'll never need a makeshift airstrip.

It was a resistance mission in which the resistance had no access to airfields, so a lack of fuel had nothing to do with it. Using a helicopter also wasn't an option since the entire point of the mission was to use a fixed wing aircraft (Skyraider.)

There just wasn't any real place on the island that could function as a believable makeshift airfield.

It isn't uncommon in the modern world for stretches of highway to be designed with the ability to serve as airstrips -- several of the Nordic countries do this, presumably so they wouldn't have to rely solely on established airfields in times of conflict.

Yes, your right. Sorry for not getting your point here.

And indeed you can't have a skyraider (high-tech baby for res, though) take off from a piece of grassland. It's nice to have a piece of flat road next to a forest, so you can park the plane under cover. I hope you find your road.

OMG

first; I love that table and those beds. Adds a lot to he game, if you ask me. This military objects pack is very high on my 'must-have'-list.

second;

OMG!!!!! That ski-lift looks awesome. I hope someone will make an island for it and make buidlings for the entire island that have the same (cool) style as the buildings of this addon. Looks awesome and makes for good mission;

You need to take over the compound on the top. The assault-squad is in the lift and on the way to the top. You are already on the top and need to take out the guards near the lift before it reaches the top (or else they'll blow it up). Than you join the assault squad and defeat the enemy. And this all in the dark during a snow-storm (FDF 1.3).

This addon is on number one of my very long 'must-have' list and that means I think it's REALLY good. Keep it up mapfact!

[raedor 8]
