Senseispcc Member Registered: 04/11/11 Posts: 396 Loc: Belgium but not in Flanders	It is possible to land with 3/4 of a wing lost; It was not very easy to fly a lot of rudder action and the landing was acrobatic, but sucesful.... _________________________ My PC; Win7 x64 Asus p6x58d I7 975 3.75Ghz System & game ssd 120Gb (great for the system and for my games). 12 Gb (6*2Gb) ddr3 1600Mhz memory Geforce gtx580 1.5Gb two of them SLI Trackir 5 Logitech G940.

It should be standing on its right wing and sliding downward, and I can't believe there would be enough airfoil authority to achieve anything like level flight.

All you write is possible but it is a "game" and the fact it is possible prove it is fun to play!

Keithb77 Member Registered: 11/30/99 Posts: 1524 Loc: UK	Indicates that a lot of the 'damage modelling' is visual and not reflected in the flight model. I'm sure it did fly...but it shouldn't have. But the visuals are good - I was going to say there should be a wing spar running out of that damaged wing, and a failure of the spar should have caused the wing to fail, but actually it looks right This article shows the Hurrican wing construction, matches CloD.

This is a game and I found it very trying and funny to land in this crippled plane but in real live I should have tryed to gain the firm ground and jump. The parachute is a safe way to land a damaged plane not always.
