For those of you who have read First Strike, it mentions Fred (2nd to the right in the banner) flying a pelican from the Autumn to Reach.

Maybe this will be where we fly a pelican?

I know there is already a thread, I am just mentioning the most likely place for it to be IMO.

More accurately, we might get the chance to crash a pelican. ;)

it wasn't fred who flew the pelican. they had a pilot but he died somehow (i forget) on the flight down so fred ordered the other spartans to jump out of the pelican.

The surest way to corrupt a youth is to instruct him to hold in higher regard those who think alike than those who think differently.

كل نفس ذائقة الموت

That sounds like pretty contrived gameplay.

Quick! Get behind the controls and spend 5 minutes with a completely different game experience.

If I'm playing an FPS I don't want to suddenly switch to a flight simulator. It's like all those horrible mini-games in FPSs where you're suddenly sitting stationary behind a turret shootin enemies like you're playin Space Invaders. It's a horrible diversion from the rest of the game that I hope game developers have left in the past.

I'd like to see the Pelican become a sort of flyable Elephant. One Spartan mans the controls, another the foward missiles, another on the rear 50 cal... I've ALWAYS wanted that ever since Halo 2.

yeah a flyable pelican would be cool but what about seraphs :P

I don't understand why we never get a chance to fly a pelican, even if it is just in multiplayer.

And it isn't as though they have to force us to fly a pelican, they could just give us the option to.

If by next-gen you mean crappy, dark and colorless, I agree. It doesnt look next-gen at all.

I love how you assume that the silhouette is Fred.

They took a plasma hit to the nose on the way down. It boiled away everything forward of the cargo hold, including the pilot and all the flight controls. That's why they had to jump, they were essentially falling inside of a steel box.
