Cool picture. Do the two steering wheels mean that there can be flight input from two players or is that just for aesthetics? Also, are you able to give an idea of how maneuvarable the glider will be? ty.

My guess: No, and not much. Most large planes have sticks on that side for the co-pilot. And I bet the maneuverability will be similar to a C47 without engines.

HERE'S AN IDEA:

Just a suggestion, but why dont you have it powered by a catapault on one side, much like the Natter rocket plane (except without fuel). I suppose you could tweak the physics so it goes farther with less speed. Either that or the Edge-of-the-map idea sounds great. Except maybe you could have C46/47s just for visual effect that tow you high in the air then disappear in the mist (that way you don't wonder how the heck the gliders got there.

PS: Be sure to leave plenty of sniper kits, a short beach, and a couple of battleships for our friends the allies, eh? ;-)

The copilot steering wheel is for aesthetics and acuracy, only the pilot can handle the volant.
It's not ingame yet, so we don't know its maneuvarability, and I hope that it will be carried by a C-47 and then it can be released and fly alone, our coders have done more difficult features before.

Good try, Formerly Human, but no, there will be no snipers in Omaha :D

Who's going to use it? You've put it as American, but I always thought glider landings were a British speciality; both during D-Day and Market Garden.

Of course, I admit I'm getting my info from films here, but I had the impression gliders were a British baby.

Or not?
