How many airport line guys have you run over

Recommended Posts

Sometimes they just get in the way. They should get on the way too many trucks and buses that cross in front of you at rotation!

After 86 or so flights I estimate about 68 poor souls lost.  Very obviously an Asobo training issue. At least it represents consistency.

I wasn't aware it was a competition, but now I know, I'll be sure to aim for them all the time, not yell 'clear' and all that stuff.

If you don't get at least 1 per flight, you're doin' it wrong.

I give 'em a fair chance to get out of the way. Beacon on. I'll maybe even flash my landing lights. But if they ignore the warnings and refuse to run  it's curtains for them.

Most irritating of all is the useless egit who drives the small GA pushback truck. I rum him over as a matter of course because he always seems to slam his truck at right angles into the side of my plane!

You have to practice to get the "All Clear" to coincide exactly with time it takes for the aircraft to move after the throttles are advanced.

I can't remember how many taxiway lights that are right in the middle of the taxiway I've knocked oxer when taxiing

I've certainly mowed down a few.  Can't understand why they don't jump out of the way when they see an aircraft coming.

My problem is the lack of realism when they are struck my a spinning propeller.  Body parts should be strewn all over the place.

Dozens. Asobo should include a "get out of the f... way, word not allowed" toggle within the atc options.
