For a min yes, but you usually fall off

I would imagine it's the same as any other vehicle, they could go up/down and you would stay on but as soon as they moved in any direction you would slip off unless you could somehow run the same speed they were moving.

I was thinking, maybe a tr max could stay on a gal if it anchored down, and I could stay on a gal with a vs max, just stay towards the back when it moves, you slide backwards and the tail keeps you from falling off, but it won't save you if they have to turn. Good commuincation is needed if you try and do this with the driver. Also make sure they turn ONLY when they are not moving at all. Only have them turn when they are stationary and you won't fall off. But maybe a tr max could do this and just anchor down. Would be cool to have a flying fortress of maxs.

Damnit, i thought all those idiotic ideas were squashed pre-beta, same as ANT bombs

is the aircraft is moving VERY slowly, yes its possible. I did it on a reaver a couple times. I went up almost to the ceiling and sniped people from there.

One time I got on top of a Gal and the pilot went to the flight ceiling and then dropped his nose strait down so I went AAAAAAAGGHH!!!! As I fell.

I did this on top of a gal with my outfit mates (about three of us). we went up and began lobbing grenades down onto the battle below. lots of people got cheesed off.:D But then the Lib came out and thats a bit more powerful so we use that.

If you could get several tr pounder max on a gal for bombing, and maybe 1 dual cycler and 1 AA tr max on the gal for defense against air as well as the three gunners in the gal you would have the ultimate flying fortress. But I think I'm dreaming because it would be very hard to do this, as well as get the tr maxs on the gal (probably would have to have the maxs hotdrop out of a gal to land on the gal). Hopefully the maxs spikes could hold them on the gal.

If the aircraft goes exactly the same speed as your run speed and you run you'll stay on top of it. Granted it is a little slow but me and some outfit members have done this before to transport people to odd locations. I should also mention that it looks incredibly stupid.

Never yet seen an NC or TR Max on a Gal, of course it easy with VS ones, get the VS AA MAX on a Gal and hover quite high over a base and you get the best AA Cover possible, they all fly towards you thinking they can take out a Gal... then you open fire mwuahahahahaha
