I love the : Transport chopper pilot rewards

I love running transport. in BF2 i would create a squad and call it transport. Then I would fly the blackhawk from base to wherever and have my squad mates running the mini-guns. Worked great when I had people who knew how to fire a mini gun. I got shot down alot when people would sit in the mini gun position and do absolutely nothing.
