Wings Flag

There are 2 WG flags in the game.  They default to be located in the north zone in a box that has a sign over it declaring "WINGS FLAGS".
The Wings have high gravity and high takoff speed and allow for 70 flaps.

You can get to about 1400 altitude with wings and drop VERY fast to shoot at a target on the level you land on.  This is an excellent surprise strike weapon.  It is very difficult to shoot another WINGed player with these wings and you are easily targed with GM if you are under 400 high.

Use WG to fly to the top of the twin towers and gain access to the "Rogues Gallery" on the diagonal's 2nd floor.

There are invisible barriers hanging in the air over the big field. This is done to make the wings slightly less powerful.  Dropping fast on your enemy works very well and some (grim reaper) have become notorious at it.

There are two teleporters in the Bridge that are for shooting at winged tanks. The output from those teleporters are on top of the crane and high up on the side of the northwest building.

Note that some of the physics tricks on this map don't work well with WINGs. For instance, the end of the conveyor in Gallery G2 doesn't pop you up far enough. Also the escalator in The Big Field work at all if you have wings. On the other hand, you are a flying tank, what do you need escalators and pop-ups for?
