6./ZG26_Klaus_Mann Posted October 28, 2014 Posted October 28, 2014 Seriously, far too many people take impossible shortcuts on takeoff and do non-belly landings through some of the deepest snow and muck. Just to underlin what I'm talking about. and part 2: and more: And let me google some more landings gone wrong in deep snow: https://www.google.nl/search?q=snow+roll+over&client=firefox-a&hs=6AQ&rls=org.mozilla:de:official&channel=sb&biw=1920&bih=945&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ei=iWpPVJKSD8iWasPngNgK&ved=0CAYQ_AUoAQ#rls=org.mozilla:de:official&channel=sb&tbm=isch&q=snow+airplane+crash 3

oneeyeddog Posted October 28, 2014 Posted October 28, 2014 I've wondered the same thing. Runways could be closed or take off delayed, waiting for snow removal. Could be an interesting twist for a campaign or online mission.
kissklas Posted October 29, 2014 Posted October 29, 2014 Yeah, I kinda agree. I tend to take off on the snow when I'm in a hurry, or don't know where the runway is in MP. Would probably help to at least make it problematic. Emergency landing on snow is a bit fun though. How hard would be realistic? Nearly impossible? Or just hard? PS: I remember something about the Norwegian Glosters used during the invasion in 1940 being tried out with skis. Does anyone know if any two winged fighters ever used skis?
6./ZG26_Klaus_Mann Posted October 29, 2014 Author Posted October 29, 2014 It depends on the kind of Landing gear you have. Fixed gear airplanes and those that have a DC-3 kinda like Landing Gears:
LLv34_Flanker Posted October 29, 2014 Posted October 29, 2014 S! Agree. There is like 10cm of snow everywhere on the map? I would believe around Stalingrad it was more like 1m of snow or even more. Reading the momoirs also tells the pilots had to land more carefully to stay on the plowed area. 2
SvAF/F19_Klunk Posted October 29, 2014 Posted October 29, 2014 Snow should have more effect than it has now, agreed. You should be able to taxi over snow covered areas between taxi area and runway, but outside the aerodromes snow should indeed have more effect yes.
6./ZG26_Klaus_Mann Posted October 29, 2014 Author Posted October 29, 2014 Basically deep snow stops you rather effieciently (as seen above) while shallow one tends to be rather compressed and extremely slippery.
SharpeXB Posted November 30, 2014 Posted November 30, 2014 It depends on the kind of Landing gear you have. Fixed gear airplanes and those that have a DC-3 kinda like Landing Gears: Oh skis as field mods for the planes would be awesome! +1 should be altered in game cross takeoff over a snowy field shouldn't be possible Definitly. If you were taking off in a plane loaded with fuel and bombs would you skip using the runway?
