I dont care if "a plane is too big", all I want for a human aircraft in Halo 2 is the SkyHawk from First Strike, which is a VTOL (vertical takeoff and landing) craft, and is very similar to a modern day Harrier jumpjet. It would therefore be able to have the same joystick pitch/tilt and steering scheme as the banshee. It would be best with a .50 caliber machine gun primary fire and a missile secondary fire. Also, it would add alot more complexity to it if you could toggle types of missiles with the black button, just like types of grenades. (ex. sidewinder heatseekers, mavericks, etc.)

but still, i just remembered, the rocket launcher in halo 2 has homing missles, so shooting it out of the air would be easy

mabey even a 4 turret heavy machine gun, (think starship trooper turret when they were in that desert base) but is uber slow

Think that the seeking rocket round could be effective AA? I'd imagine if the shot hits the right spot on a banshee it'd knock it out of the sky.

a plane implies a larger object then a banshee flier a banshee is a glider now i'm still in favor of a human flying thingy but it would have to be smaller armed with a 50. cal and rockets not missiles

ya, the skyhawk would be tight. it is MORE manuverable than the banshee, because it can actually hover. banshees use antigrav pods, which make them somewhat cumbersome. ever tried to hover in one? its impossible. you slowly drift backwards. and those rocket turrets might be cool, but only in single player. otherwise they might be cheap. unless you had to reload them...

i like the missles cause with boosting you might be have a fighting chance of our running them

i would go with missles and i hope that in the banshee(human if there is a human one and covenant) to be able to do a backflip cause in halo you couldnt do a backflip in the banshee it would just send you straight up

no 2nd, but the bullets would be damn near instantanios and fast fireing where as the missle is slow, probably homing, and dous not fire fast. wouldnt u sacrifise quantity over quality this time?

the idea for a human fighter is totally possible. most fighter aircraft to day are single or double seaters. once again i belive if they do it will be an air craft with vtol vertical takeoff and landing much like the marine corps AV8 harrier fighter in service today
