Recent take offs have been, exciting and I was wondering if the wind direction and strength is set by the mission building team, or by the game engine.
Just a wind sock would be a help, especially since I've read that 109's may have killed more on take off and landing than in combat! :salute:

We don't put wind into he campaign missions, since it is fucked up in CloD. So no need to worry about it.
The wind is not the problem on take offs. ;)

Erm... There will be wind in the Big Nav Challenge during the campaign break. I've tested it in a 109 and I managed to get airborne ok. Didn't make a landing though.

Is it worth testing it with somebody who actually knows how to fly a 109 before the event itself?
