Another Quick Q - 8/7/2009 9:15:43 PM

Status: offline 		Ok, I want to transport a VMF (F4F-3s) to Midway on a carrier, but I want them there intact (non-packaged), but when I form a Air COmbat TF and transfer to the CV when in poirt, they pack onboard damaged. Why is this? Could they not fly and land on the deck, storing what they could and putting the rest on deck? What do I need to do here, send the TF offshore first?

*Also, they come off the carrier damaged while in port as well.

You need to fly them on and off the carrier to avoid being "packaged." When disbanded inport, the CV will load aircraft but will package them like any AK does.

Be careful not to overload your carrier or you might be in serious trouble if KB comes a'calling.
