Keep getting captured

[ACEONATION]

So I have done three campaigns as the Germans and after every second flight out I get captured. Every time I fly home and land so I don't know why I keep getting captured. Thanks for any help

This might sound like a dumb question, but did you land on a friendly airfield? Did you make sure?

If this happens, save the "_gen.xx" mission files in a separate folder and zip it.  (Important: the _gen files get overwritten every time a new mission is created, therefore do this right after the mission it happend) Also make sure to do inflight recordings and if possible upload them somewhere. (A track recording constists of a folder AND a file with the same name, to replay them both are needed.)

 

If you have done this you can attach the zip file with the _gen mission files so others can have a look, also its helpful make screenshots of where you landed and the map position.

Maybe you switch LABELS on for moments, to check where you really are?

You should then see a black aircraft symbol in the MAP - that can be helpful.
Some airfields - friend and foe - may be close together.

Where did you fly? From which airfield?

Lutwaffe airfields will be marked with blue dots here and there, Soviets with red. You should be landing at YOUR field and that will be shown on the map flightpath and when you approach to less than 5.5km (ish) should display a large blue oval designator with an arrow if your labels are on. If you're being captured then you're landing on a Soviet field for sure.

Yes I am landing at my Airfield XD. Even worse is if I'm not, then all of my wing mates should also be captured because I follow them in.
