When the F16A is at the top of the bracket at 12.7 its pretty easy to do, especially on small maps like Denmark.
I havn’t played denmark that much so i don’t really have a say but…
for the lower bracket’s, Think Having the 40mm bofor’s as a defense would be a good deterrent for the forward bases?
(and maybe some actual flak on the way there. Want that black smoked sky lol)
you do realise you’re in the SIM forum??

small?? :p
ah, my b. anywho, they just need to update the aa then right?
I kind of have a problem with you sitting on the runway doing nothing for the team because your worried about you precious booster and that useful action but to each his own i guess,i don’t see it as a bug but it actually helps me complete the actual objectives because if you avoid the area of that one airfield instead of taking the risk of going to it and getting shot
The map is everything else than small bud
That would be someone who lands at airfields that have no AA and then complains about being killed on them because they have no AA.
the team? I have a team?? :p
No, a noob would be someone commenting on a thread about Air Simulator who has not only an abysmal TWELVE games in sim… but … drum roll… ZERO AIR KILLS!
41k games in arcade and a classic case of Dunning-Kruger :p
Denmark is literally one of hugest map entire the SBEC.

This is true for both teams. You can spawn in another airfield further away that isn’t under attack (with a longer travel time) or risk being killed while having a shorter path to any objective.
You can also minimize chances of getting strafed on landing by not landing on the runway itself - its much harder to be seen if you hide next to the tents, hangars, etc.
Literally happened to me yesterday. Pretty annoying and wish there was at least one airfield that was infinitely protected.
But Denmark is actually very small, due to terrain and too many airfield, the actual airport spacing is only 60-70KM.
Fly a 350 km/h-400 km/h plane over 100-120 km where the objective (A points) expires by the time you arrive. Naval planes would get around this, but if I feel like flying germany/italy or russia I don’t have this option. Even when I do, the aircraft carrier is beyond stupid and likes to drive off the edge of the world being useless.
I hate event periods in props. People spam maps absolutely NOT suited for BRs 3.0-5.7 and make it a bloody quest to find an actual fun lobby.
Smolensk is the only 128x128 map (and Dover strait with its kinda middle ground size) that works for props due to airfield placement and the LARP of being actual WW2 battlefields.
In higher BRs with Rolands if the C8 airfield doesn’t spawn the northern team has to fly 80km to any objectives and most players. I generally prefer to fight over land. So if Im in a MIG21 with full fuel by the time I find anyone I have to turn around or fight with a severe disadvantage. Meanwhile the southern team is farming the SE corner in peace.
This has the effect of regularly making Denmark ‘larger’ than the other 128km2 maps.
Gaijin would notice this if they ever played sim… but they don’t and won’t.

Sometimes I truly despair about the state of this community…
Vets do this, not noobs. Nobbs dont even know which airfields have this bug.
noobs find out when they pick denmark (which is ALWAYS in play for every BR range) and pick an AF in the SE corner… and get killed in spawn…
and then do it themselves.
Although this is also a issues for lazy veterans too.
Bump
It’s not just Denmark and it’s making the game unplayable.
Having safely landed at an airfield that’s not flashing yellow only to get jumped by an enemy while you’re waiting for your aircraft to reload is an absolute joke.
