Give the aircraft a getout waypoint on a working runway.
Plenty of reviewed ArmA missions for you to play

i think the "land" command works for planes

Code: [Select]
plane land "land"
might do it as well

or if you want a more exciting landing try:

Code: [Select]
plane setfuel 0

I am working on a script that will make a plane land on any flat area of land (the same script will also work to force a crash (by adjusting parameters).  When it is done I will post it at the Editor's Depot.

Can't you just make the ai use the "landing autopilot" action?

Giving an AI pilot a "land" command or a getout waypoint puts him into autopilot mode. However, just giving him a land command (without any other command after that) will most likely result in him circling the taxiway after landing and taking off again and flying into oblivion....until he runs out of fuel or gets deleted =)
