Godspeed Posted February 21, 2019 Posted February 21, 2019 (edited) Long story short I had quite long Soviet La-5 Career and it ended like it should have not. My engine was shot out and i decided to make emergency landing. When i was around 50 meters german plane decided to shoot at me and hit few rounds and my wing started to burn. Then i had to land anyway since i got no working engine because i could not bail out anymore. I landed safely and my right wing still burning. I was sure that when i press bail out i could go out of my plane but no. ( Still missing ) Well as you know you need to wait till the stupid mission is completed and i pressed to 4x speed and watch my wing burn so my team can shoot down rest of the attackers who are still on "protect ground units zone" Then after like 4-5 mins my plane exploded and i died. There goes my 53 kills Iron Man Hard difficulty career. Why this feature is not in sim its soon 5 years of release and still you cant walk out of your plane? Bit salty to be honest.

Mac_Messer Posted February 21, 2019 Posted February 21, 2019 This reminds me of that sortie where I ran out of fuel and I landed at secondary friendly af. Plane written off as 'crashed'.

danielprates Posted February 21, 2019 Posted February 21, 2019 It sure is strange that you can bail out a falling plane, but not out of a ditched one.
RedKestrel Posted February 21, 2019 Posted February 21, 2019 Can't you just end the mission when you land, take the failed mission and move on? Or is that different in Iron Man mode.
[APAF]VR_Spartan85 Posted February 21, 2019 Posted February 21, 2019 Aaaaarrrrghhhh!!!!! This please! The simple original run and dive animation was fun.. I’m tired of sitting in a burning plane after a forced landing.. 1
EAF19_Marsh Posted February 21, 2019 Posted February 21, 2019 That sounds annoying. Just to add, the criteria to be declared ‘force landed’ seems bizarrely wide.
Herne Posted February 21, 2019 Posted February 21, 2019 I thought I saw a dev update recently where mission would advance 15 minutes after you finish flight ? If this is the case, you could have played it safe and finished flight, and your flight still had a chance to complete the sortie

When your wind screen is covered in oil, your pilot is bloody red-out on screen and you are blinded .... that is when you would do a ‘force’ landing.... ?

According to the mission rules, it is just about anything. I sometimes get that after a 3-pointer at my home field. Never quite sure why.
Godspeed Posted May 6, 2019 Author Posted May 6, 2019 It happened again but this time plane just exploded on ground after 5mins without fire.. After explosion i got message that i have oil leak.. Silly but really stupid. Another prominent career lost for worst kind of reason. Yay
