Add "Airplane" to the vessel classifications

[Spacepetscompany]

Well... Might as well revive this further! +1

[Stone Blue]

+1 on this whole idea....

But especially at least adding a "Satellite" category...I also use comm/GPS networks, which means anywhere from 6-30 satellites that I dont need to see most of time, so eliminating them from view when i only need Ships or Probes is IMMENSELY helpful in clearing up map view.

[Starwhip]

I'd call it "Spaceplane", myself. Supported.

[Renegrade]

We definitely need more vessel classifications. I'm +1 on the space/plane category, and also +1 on the satellite category. I'd also like to see a category for actual SPACE-craft, as in non-re-entry, non-landing, orbit-only things, like a tug/transfer vessel (say like von Braun's nuclear tug or Clarke's Discovery).

+1 on adding a plane icon to the existing ones, no need to get it more complicated with tags/subclasses.

[Wahgineer]

+1

maybe borrow symbols from the mission patch/badge things that people put in their signatures?

[bv1]

This is a simple suggestion which should be implemented.

[TheMoonRover]

Agreed. Aircraft and/or Spaceplane icons are needed.

Or an interface similar to the custom part categories.

+1. I'd think aeroplane would be better than airplane though.

Personally I agree, but Americans won't. Aircraft would be accepted on both sides of the Atlantic, however.

Atlantic, not Atlantis

Yes, I have long desired a Plane icon. Please add one, SQUAD.

All sorts of different colors, I'm not necessarily so keen on, because of my genetic defect.

[Robotengineer]

I would very much like an Aeroplane icon, as well as a Communications Satellite icon.

[Ricardo79]

I would very much like an Aeroplane icon, as well as a Communications Satellite icon.

+1 on the ComSat too.

And why not? One for the SSTO-s? VTOLs?

But still I think a configurable one would be the ultimate solution.

[tntristan12]

Why not be able to create our own categories like we can for parts in the VAB?

+1, by the way.

[Seaview123]

I like this idea, and hope Squad takes this for action in 1.0.

To put it simply, Not sure why this isn't a feature already. It should be.
