You can attach RPK and M249 on the Duster.

But are they really, I ran to the a4 strip, z0 strip, and b1 airport hangers and there was nothing. Then tried single player, turned planes to max, and teleported to all the spots and still nothing. Tried buying one at trader and it isnt available. Doubting they actually added them to anything but maybe admin codes.

Befoire a vehicle can spawn you need to visit the location and its vicincy first. The Vehicles do not spawn from the start up on the map. Make sure to check positions later again to see if a vehicle has spawned already. On MP it also can be that the vehicles are already taken. Traders do not have them probably on stock, sell parts/Vehicles first.

I did 2 laps of tping to the different spots

When the update was released the airplane spawner numbers were set at 0 this may be by default on the non official servers.
The private server owners will need to set the spawn amounts and then they should be available after the next reboot!

questions that need answers.
1) how many m249 can be added and used as weapons, is it 1,2 or more.
2) when the m249 is used on a plane is the amount of ammo set by what your have loaded in the gun, ie 30 rounds for a m16 mag or 100 for a m249 mag or does adding it to a plane increase the amount of ammo you have.
3) when in the air using the guns, when it runs out of bullets can you change the mag or do you have to land to change a magazine.

If not changed it is as follows:

1: 2 LMG can be added, 1 per side.
2: It is determined by the Mag that is attached. If you put a 30rnd mag on it, the weapon only can shoot 30x before a reload needs to take place. Recommended are the box mags.
3: You need to land in order to reload the gun as there is no beltfed from a ammo storage inside of the plane.

I went to the usual places where planes spawn, couldnt find any. I'm an admin so I can spawn them but ya know, don't wanna cheat and tease the other players that I got a plane. Are they bugged or somethin?
