Ok, well are those two planes script_models, are they each targeting a script_origin?
I'm all out of ideas now, if model 1 works, there is no reason why the rest dont, the routines are the same for each model.

Grassy

should the script u gave me have the 3 planes fly at the same exact time?

ok things seem to be working. couple of things though.
1) I want to double the speed of the planes, how do I do that?
2) The 3 planes seem to either be going at different speeds or they are starting at different times because the planes should be moving together, but after about 2 seconds one of the planes has a noticeable lead on the other 2.

Ok whats happening with my second statement is the planes are spawning at different times. Stuka1 spawns slightly before stuka2 which spawns slightly before stuka3. How do I fix this?

im sry for the confusion. i just need to know how to make the planes fly faster.

to double the speed

change level.PlaneSpeed = 15;

to

level.PlaneSpeed = 30;

and if you look at this section of the script . . . it will explain why the planes spawn apart from each other.

  stuka1 thread plane_flyby(org1,start1,"stuka_flyby");
  wait .15;
  stuka2 thread plane_flyby(org2,start2,"stuka_flyby");
  wait .15;
  stuka3 thread plane_flyby(org3,start3,"stuka_flyby");
  wait 120;

it executes the plane_flyby function for stuka1 and then waits .15 seconds before it executes the same function for stuka2 and so on.

Ok thank you all so much for your help. I don't know why this was so difficult to do. Was wondering though id there was a way to make the planes do any cool tricks in the air such as a barrel roll or something.

I want to make the planes louder. Which number(s) do I adjust?

I tried adding an addition 5 planes to my map and script and called them stuka4-8, but they don't fly. I don't know why the 5 additional planes aren't working. I just copied the script and changed the numbers and I double checked my values in radiant. Can someone please check my script maybe I did something wrong.
