this is a really cool idea. I loved navigating around the perlin storms. at one point I was able to trade out one plane for another on the landing pad. For the most part I just piloted one plane at a time, since I had to make some tight corners with them.
I think it would be more fun if there was a more crisp line between storm and not-storm, so that it would sometimes be safe to leave a plane out in the open. Or larger spaces between storms, so that it would be (sometimes) feasible to send a plan off in a long line
