I’m going to say it but if it’s naval orientated I’d usually run a mile but I remember these flying boat events from years ago and it was so fun!
Glad it’s coming back 🫡
Pretty cool but I’m busy grinding all the other things going on, and you have to use backups to spawn the same plane again which reduces if you just trying to use this to unlock the floatie foldered with it.
This was a fun event “back-in-the-day” … looking forward to playing it again!
(funny how battlepass has a flying boat and this event coincidentally is back… not that I’m complaining mind… hopefully a few other old events will be back sometime?)
