Hello Dante,
In the past I really missed something like this in flight sims:
For the feeling/experience of truly completing a mission, for me, this is essential. To see aircraft lined up with this kind of vehicles surrounding it. And when you taxi to hangar, these vehicles are placed around your aircraft in the end as well (with characters like in Commanche 4?)
I've seen you've done some characters, but they where not skinned yet weren't they?

P.S. This and This are very "inspirational" sites. I tried once to model one of these vehicles but unfortunately ...I did never succeed ;)
