There are lots of flying games already. I have a couple of them.
The part of the enigma that fascinates me is surface ships in gun battles. If I had the control to do it I would often turn off aircraft and submarines to focus on the guns.
Future Suggestions

I've said it before and I'll say it again: the ability to fly planes is a great idea! It adds a great dimension to the game and invites additional groups of players to the ERT world.
Flying a plane shouldn't be as difficult as in a realistic flightsim, just as captaining a ship in ERT is not perfectly realistic.
I would live the opportunity to fly in low and drop a torpedo or dive bomb a ship or strafe a sub.
Face it. Aerial battle is a natural part of this game. It would make for great singleplayer missions as well as terrific multiplayer participation when that becomes available.
And in MP, you'll have to beware of the Kamikazis!

No Please not player controlled planes!!

Namely cause creating a control interface for plane control would take alot of work seeing how it's quite abit differnt then driving a boat. Also planes are rediculasly weak compared to boats. One DD can easily take 8 or more planes. The basic outcomes of these are that 1. It'd distract TAG from getting some real additions in (like multiplayer) and 2. Planes would need to be tweaked after all the post about how they die too easily to AA fire pop up.

What if TAG's already done most of the work? (see the "airplanes" thread I revived)Namely cause creating a control interface for plane control would take alot of work seeing how it's quite abit differnt then driving a boat.

If they already have airplane controls up and going, more power to them, It'd be a great addition. I just don't think it should be at the top of their list.
