If you take this seriously, you're some kind of mouth-breathing fappwit that shouldn't have survived infancy.

My map-in-progress has two extensive canyon sections that are extremely fun to fly through.  Shivas might have to fly on the wing tip through some sections though.

a community made map could certainly fill in the open map types of ASF only, BA only, etc. Just gotta set up the map in such a way where thats possible, e.g. by only making aero hangars or whatever.
Play my free open source web game MiniMek - Urbie Defense!  Its "mega fun" but with mini meks!

An aero only map will probably kill a server population faster than putting Inferno in the rotation.

Not a knock against aeros, but rather there are a great number of people who are only interested in playing ground based units, and they will leave the server to do other things.

I only like flying aero against ground units.  Dogfighting is for flight simulators.

We need LAMS IN MWLL! *runs*
'any kind of discussion of randomness ALWAYS WILL EQUATE to being able to critically hit a mech's reactor by firing a micro beam laser while facing 80 degrees to the side, shooting the ground, which would cause a random explosion which would randomly crit his entire team's reactors which would randomly cause the server itself to explode which would randomly generate a strange quark which would randomly hit the earth and randomly randomness randomfapp the shit fapp random!'

Check out the Japanese Anime "Yukikaze" for some spectacular canyon flying. Towards the beginning if I remember correctly.
