Taking off from airfield in GRB

Time to take off is added.
Time to Altitude is added.
Time to speed is added.
Time Until Able to Threaten is added.

Ideally, airfield is pushed back to 15 km from the current 8 kilometers as well for a minimum travel time around 3 minutes at 300 km/h IAS constant climb.

except for the fact that it is better to take off from the airfield for most planes using after burnser but not GBUs or similar… SO it is a buff for inexperienced CAS players

Also affects naval.

I don’t hate it, I wouldn’t even hate it if it forced more airfield spawning in bad weather (except for maybe the long range bombers), personally, but that’s not what this change is about, this is just changing your default.

The trouble is it can be very hard to notice in borderline “bad weather” conditions that you are in that situation until you end up on the airfield going “f__k”. The notification either needs to be significantly more obvious in the U/I AND/OR you need to reduce the weather conditions that cause it down to just the ones that OBVIOUSLY look like bad weather/visibility in the game. As is it’s more annoying than useful.

EDIT: Today’s update is an improvement. Still think notification of the default change could be a little more obvious.

Just hoping to read the update: “All weather has been removed from the bad weather list.”

From a battle just now - enemy spawned a nuke. I got killed, i have SP for plane. Ok - i am gonna try to intercept the nuke, worth trying, as the battle is cool and balanced. But no - game spawned me on airfield, making it impossible to make it on time.

Thanks gaijin, very cool
