If this were to happen, I'd see it happen in Halo: Reach, not Halo 3 seeing as how they can't update such hardcore game instructions after the game is released. It's like adding new armor, it would be impossible unless another disk is released.

As for Reach, it wouldn't really connect with the story line unless it were a Spartan's evacuation order. Spartan's are obviously the main/heavy infantry. They're not meant for flying around in Pelicans and picking up soldiers. Though say a Spartan had to evacuate a certain area, he could get in a Pelican and fly away seeing Spartan's have all the intelligence in the UNSC.

This could work for Multiplayer, but it would be a major hassle. To make it succesful I'd imagine everything being able to manipulate and interact with. Like if you were to crash into a building, the building would cave in and have the effects of where it was hit, which is way beyond current video game technology. If not, then crashing into buildings and such would just be bittersweet. It would be like the current Bansee explosion hit detection. When you crash into something with the Banshee at full speed, the Banshee will just implode. I imagine it would be the same effect with a Pelican/Phantom, which would be pretty lame in my opinion.

Either way, of Course I'd love to fly around a level with a Pelican. But for Bungie to execute right, they would obviously need to spend alot of time, and money on soemthing relatively unneeded. For it's been something we've been living without for a while.
