Fabulous Discovery!

I was zooming around in my Seahawk, testing a scenario I'm putting together and discovered that I can:

1. Land on the flight deck of a big deck L-ship with my helo.
2. Take off again after rearming and refueling.

I think that's just plain rad. Being able to land and do things with the helo is a big deal for me, because I thought you were constrained to just the frigate. Apparently this will work with any friendly ship that has a flight deck.

As a sub driver this is bad news to me

However a nice easter egg for you whirlybird types

You can land on CVs too. Jaime posted a list of the ships you can land on once a while ago. I think the Kirov was on the list- I remember that since it was a kinda cool idea t have a mission off a Kirov.

you can even land on enemy ships and rearm ... hard to get there though but possible

Theres LOTS of other thing you can land on too

The Oil Rig for one, plus most ships in the game you are able to land on (basically anything that has an airstrip attached to it)
