Airfield Drops

Airfield Drops

About

A unique Airfield event where the Cargo Plane flies in finds the Airfield, Begins to circle with messages in chat alerting players to the event. Circles the Airfield before attempting to land on the runway and deploying up to 5 Supply Drops on the runaway before taking back off. Unique flight patterns and seeing Cargo Plane do things it was never intended to ever do!

Misc Info

Event by default settings takes roughly about 10-15 mins for it to complete giving players enough time to get to the Airfield and defend against other players to get the loot!
