Believe several post said already that air units will not be done in this game.

Really? This is the first ive heard of it. In my oppinon though its a geat idea. You could have 3 kinds.

1. A lynx type one with a laser/microwave weapon
2. A scout type plane.
3. A transport that could carry 2 lynx, 1 convec, 1 cargo truck, or 1 panther.
(note: only 1 of the above vheicals can be transported at a time.)

No air units damn it.  A laser on a HIGH FLYING UNIT the laser doesnt even go that far and if it did the Laser Lynx would rule.

Depending on the Atmosphere A VTOL would either have to be powered by ROCKETS which is entirely crazy or Propellers/jet engine.  Both of which dont seem like they would work at all for the game.

A transport plane has already been discussed about.  Cargo Lander.
