why its abuseable:

controllable sleigh

can fly for hella long

you dont need to land, just bring jetpack/ cake vest and jump out when you feel like it

plane makes hella explosion; just crash it into large hoards for a huge money win or if youve got flak vest to take out brutes Let me shut you down real quick.

​​​1. It's no where near as fast as the sleigh, and it seriously lacks agility. While the sleigh can just fly from one building to another instantly, the plane needs a clear space to start...need to watch out for objects....Calculate a launch path...aaaand I've forgotten I'm in a zombie apocalypse. And once you decide to/are forced to land, the plane is much slower. It will continue to propel forward once you land so you have to have a clear runway. Oh and the turning? It's a plane, go figure.

2. The fuel lasts 12 seconds, it takes 4 seconds to take off. Thats 8 seconds of flight in say, a 10 minute match? Not to mention you have to wait for this to recharge. And for comparison? The Sleigh can fly instantly for around 15 seconds before stopping, the Jetski lasts 25 seconds before needing to recharge, and the jetpack has enough fuel for about 30 seconds of continuous flight (But it's more like 25 if you don't want to break your legs and die.)

3. Yes, actually you do. By saying this you proved you know Nothing about the plane. Dare you jump without landing, the plane is forever dead. (Meaning you can't use it). In order to land this, you need some form of clear runway or you risk meeting grim eighty years early. This means as the wiki for the Toy Plane says, It's next to useless on maps like Casius Outpost or Outpost 21.

4a. The explosion does up to 200 damage. That's barely enough to kill normal zombies. Good luck killing a brute with a plane. (Provided it doesn't just smack you straight out of it first.)

4b. In order to trigger this explosion, you actually have to crash into physical objects, you can't just nosedive into the ground. If a zombie is dumb enough to stand next to a building and watch a slow falling plane crash into them, it's their fault. Did I forget to mention the explosion radius is only slightly larger than the Xmas launcher's? The only way I see someone pulling off a Plane Pentakill, is in a really cramped area like the closets in Blackfield. I doubt many will willingly attempt to crash into zombies to get an extra 100$. 40 damage to yourself may not seem like a lot with the flakvest, but it still adds up quick.

Now please get out of here, you're an embaressment to this discussion. chill out dude, he's giving his opinion and all of a sudden your coming out here with the title keyboard warrior
