I think that air units should be able to actually move from cities (like a regualr unit). This would make the many possibilities of like Hot Air Ballons, and no i m not full of hot air ;)
They could also add like fuel units so the planes could only move so far and veteren planes would get more fuel units and so.

This could make the helicopter be more useful (if it held more then one unit).

If you've ever played the DyP mod u would know what im talking about.

It would make planes more instresting and make them more useful...

Hey
Its just an idea...

Oh yeah by the way i can't spell that good so u'll just have to deal with it. Or else... :borg:
 
I actually never tried that myself, but I think if you want to be able to move airplanes out of cities, you just have to deselect "Immobile" in the editor.

What the AI does with this units may be another question...

In general, I like the way air units are made in Civ3. Sure, baloons and blimps would be nice, but they never were really important units in world history, so I can live without them.
 
Overly specialized units detract fr the 'grand sweep' feel of Civ... ;)

I like the way airpower is implemented in Civ3 - as flying artillery in my case. :cool:
