    Plane and boat questions

    I'm seeing a lot of questions but very few answers. May as well through in my questions!

    Will there be a free fly mode and free drive for boats or will the planes and boats be bound to events/races only? Will there be more planes than shown in the video? Some old war birds would be awesome! If there is a free fly mode, will we be able to land and take off or will we just magically appear in the air? I would love a little feedback on how this new stuff will work.

    You see it in the gameplay demo, you can switch between land, air and sea instantly in free drive.

    GOOD QUESTION Traveler67!!

    i want this question answered too, while the quick switch between vehicles is good i want to be able to drive to an airport/airfield and actually take off and land a plane will this be possible???, plus is there a single player story line, can you play the events against the computer as well as other players and have you added new cities to the USA map???

    There is another thing I wonder. How do you steer an airplane when your Controller is a Wheel?

    Yes I would love some feedback on controllers for the planes. I drive with the keyboard but will I be able to fly with a joystick? I cant imagine trying to fly a plane by tapping the arrow keys!

    I'm also kind of wondering what will happen if a plane hits any other object. Will the plane simply take damage like the cars in TC1 did, or will they actually lose pieces of them and/or blow up upon contact?

    But to answer the free drive question...it wouldn't surprise me if we could free drive with these new vehicle types wherever we please. I don't see why not. Though spawning as a boat while on land may be useless. lol

    Anyway... I also seem to recall people asking similar questions when monster trucks came to the Wild Run DLC, and it turned out that they were indeed drivable in free drive mode.
