RE: Is combat dead?
Again with the shooting the light beams crap?
Oh, I forgot, it's an original idea only found one place. Which of course has at least 6 versions posted in this forum itself.
Good luck to you, I hope you find a magic bullet that makes it feasible. It's wonderful enough trying to figure out how far out and how far behind a persons airplane it is required to get your plane on his streamer. I can only guess how easy it will be to line up a light beam. People will be ramming each other just to end the match.
I haven't heard much from the guy who was going to build a giant flying runway to launch and land electrics off of lately either.
