I went on a mission in a spitfire to bomb two helpless freighters with 8 wingmen, all in spitfire's.  Big overkill    8)
It took 43% of my fuel to get there and 6% to blow up one ship.  So I ordered my wingmen to attack the last ship and I headed home for lack of fuel.  My wingmen blew up the last ship  and turned to follow me.

Now I have 20% of my fuel left and I am 95 miles from home.
I did not want to ditch the plane, so I turned to a airport that was 15 miles away.  

I have 2% of my fuel left and  am 3 miles from the airport and 2 miles up.  Should I ditch or try for a landing ?

I have never tryed to land in the cfs3  ::)    

Can you refuel?

Depending on your airspeed, i'd say try a deadstick landing, but you'll only have one shot at it, if you miss you be screwed. :P  Anyway, if you've never landed in CFS3, it would be much easier.
