Chinook, hard to fly? - Page 4

Not hard to fly handleling wise just a bugger to actuly see out of the thing.

its a b*tch to land pretty much anywhere but the helipad, otherwise i think its great to fly (visibility's a bit limited though...)

i get past this usually by hovering a few feet above the ground and let people jump out

I'm gonna try revising the code to make a more realistic and better (as in smoother, less jerky) Chinook. I'll see if I can get a video on by Saturday.

Personly, I think it is harder to fly than other helicopters... for 2 reasons... those 2 are that its fast, and its so big its hard to land. But you will get used to it!

Hmm, weird... I find flying the chinook very easy.. The way it handles is just... ahh. so nice.

Also the way you can make it hover 1 meter above the ground.
And its speed!

I just love to fly the Chinook.

my biggest gripe is visibilty and the speed it accelerates.

I find it easy to fly xD, but the best way to land is find a small clear spot to land and make sure theres not any enemys shooting at you. and landing alittle farther from the actaul LZ can save you and your squad, NEVER try rescueing people from the water unless your want to die. try to get 2 squads in your helo if you can. and dont rush, rushing can kill you, your helo, and your teammates

The Chinook flies like an angel, at least to me. I enjoy its "hard" flight characteristics since it makes it easier to perform advanced maneuvers such as high altitude fast desents. Also, if you are new to PR you may still need more practice with helos before you can call yourself a good pilot.

Chinook is the easiest for me to fly. Still can't land on operation archer though, but thats more to do with the airfields tricky layout.

Easy to fly (As far as flying in BF2 goes) hard to land. I think the speed could be brought down from topping out at 1000km/h to like 700-800km/h so the helicopter does start speeding up when you are trying to land. /offtopic - Can you ride in a Chinook with out being seated / is it safe?
