In city flying when the defense goes down on the oposing team use transport helicopters as taxis to move the infintry to battle fast. When you are in a chopper exit as soon as it lands so the pilot can bug at and make another run.

Really? I thought the Chinook was just for fun, like a hot air baloon. [Embarrassed]

It actually really gets on my nerves when I play on Walls_Flying, and a transport chopper screams, "Get in the Vehicle" It fills with 4 engineers, and the IDIOT CHOPPER PILOT flys us to the top of the cliffs! What do a chopper-load of engineers care about the cliffs? Go into the DAM BASE!
Is it really that tough for a sniper to run to the sniping spots? Do you have to eat up a vehicle slot and a whole team member to serve as a taxi for what might be the least productive members of your team?
TAXIS ARE A WASTE OF A MAN AND A VEHICLE SLOT!
Choppers should be running engies past defenses to buildings impossible to reach by foot. Any other use of a chinook is a waste of time.

Yeah any time you can drop an extra 3 people in a fire fight is a waste. The person flying has to know what they are doing and do it quick. I'm not saying don't fly to buildings i'm saying don't make it a one way trip.

True but APC's can also manuever around obstacles like rocks, hills, and support beams while a heli is just floating through the air giving a clean shot to any sniper.

Manuevering those pigs is like parallel parking a buick in downtown Boston. Yeah, you can do it, but it gonna be awhile.
