SimCity 4 Take off and Landing Fire Plane at a Different Airport!
The fire plane is a U-Drive It vehicle found in SimCity 4: Rush Hour. It can be unlocked after building a Fire Department Landing Strip. The fire plane can be used to complete missions to earn rewards and mayor rating (good or bad depends on the mission). Because it is an emergency vehicle, the player can choose to dispatch this plane to the scene of a disaster, but it is not recommended since the plane takes a while to get up in the air, and it usually takes several passes to drop enough water to extinguish fires. If possible, it is advised to dispatch a regular fire crew as their response time is a little more reliable than the fire plane. The fire plane uses standard aircraft controls with the arrow keys or W,A,S,D to control the plane, and the E and C keys to control vertical movement. Note that to take off, the player must press the E key and simultaneously gather enough speed to leave the runway. The space bar is used to drop water.
