"No of course not" he said.(Lying through his teeth)

my post was refering to yours and the infos inside this il2 forum. If you take just 3 mins and read the info about the B-17 and 24 .. you wouldnt ask such a question ... have you read the readme pdf? 4.11?

there is sometimes a hint what is in and what not

http://forum.1cpublishing.eu/showthread.php?t=24281

the PDF you can find by yourself

Not sure if this is a bug, but doing a road runway takeoff, I can't get static spawn to work.

That right there is the key to it all!

When I changed the waypoint from a "regular" one to a "takeoff" one, it DID snap to the nearest runway icon. It was then that I changed the properties from normal to line (or pairs). Now I know that with that change, I can then move that takeoff icon ANYWHERE!

YOU GUYS ARE SO EFFIN AWESOME !!!

This change and the addition of the different landing patterns creates almost
limitless possibilities in more realistic airfield operations.

Thank you sooo much!

Airfields are kinda my "thing".

Do us a HUGE favor though and explain this a little more clearly in the readme, ok?

I tested your mission. The 335 spawned on the road just fine. I took off with no problems. Not sure what issue you may have.

It's not SUPPOSED to spawn on the road. It's supposed to spawn on the stationary aircraft.

That is the bug.

Look, if you want to put an aircraft carrier on the Berlin map, it's your mission.....

However, you may want to take another look, since there is no actual aircraft carrier in the mission. There is only a stationary plane and your flight spawning on a road....see the screenshot of the FMB.
