Some air vehicle stunts that can be performed in Battlefield are:
-wing walking
-various flips and rolls
-landing
-landing on small spaces
-no-gravity rides
-jumping from plane to plane
Okay, so I'll start with wing walking, one of my favorites. All you have to do is climb on the wing of a plane, and stay there, preferably in the prone position. The pilots job is alot harder though, he/she needs to make sure they keep a low speed, climb very slowly, and only use the rudder to turn. I've only ever tried this in Battlefield Vietnam, so I'm not sure if there are any differences or not. If you're doing this on a stunts server with people you don't know, it's best to put C4 on the plane, so if the pilot purposly knocks you off the plane, you can give him a message saying "arse"
. Pics added soon.
Flips and rolls are extremly easy, and almost everyone can do them their first time playing. Rolling helicopters is also easy, you just need to start a greater altitude. One thing I'm going to try in the future is having someone on my wing, and then try doing a loop and catching him on my plane again. Pics added soon.
I will teach how to land and fly a helicopter in a future entry, but you can easily land a plane by finding a open space, and decreasing the speed, and then slowly descending. Pics added soon.
You can land in small spaces quite easily, actually. All you need to do is find your space, then before you even get there, decrease the speed all the way, so that the plane wants to go backwards, and as soon as you touch the ground get out, and it should stop relativly quickly. Pics added soon.
You may be wondering what no-gravity rides are, so I will explain them in detail. No-grav rides are when you enter a plane or helicopter, but arn't attached to it (you havn't pressed the enter vehicle key) and someone pilots it up into the air, and then starts to go straight up, the nose pointing straight into the sky. After this the pilot jumps out, and you are pressed up against the walls or the roof or floor of the plane or helicopter. This can be a great deal of fun, though you can die from being pressed against the walls of the vehicle. Works great with a Chinook in 'Nam (just enter in the back) and in Galactic Conquest mod for '42 with the Melennium Falcon. Pics added soon.
I've never actually tried this, but I assume you just wing walk while standing up and jump to another plane (most likely below you). Should be easy with a helicopter. Pics added soon.
