Arlo, I think I didnt explain my thoughts well enough, I didnt have a lot time while I'm at work.
You're right FM2, I got confused reading about the CAP event and this setup.
I wouldnt say its a point of contention, its just a fustration, and I get over it easily. It wasnt even worth bringing up because it doesnt happen that often. I was only trying to make a point that those two things are the only things that I find fustrating, but that goes for the CT and the MA, Whereas a few individuals seem to think that this particular setup is biased towards Axis and I dont agree.
I do think that the CV's should be hardened maybe twice as hard as they are now and make the shore batteries a little weaker but add more shore batteries
I used fly the F4Us quite a bit, Mostly the F4U-1A, I think it handles better than the C and D (I have more problems with stalling in the C and D than I do in the 1A, but that could just me and I'm doing something wrong) and I have almost no real time in the -4. I'm no expert in them but I hold my own if I fly regularly. I'm now trying to learn the F6F and F4F-FM2.
But I'm also learning the Zero.
One other point, the allies do have an advantage with that CV ack, You can take off with out worring about vulching. The ack coverage on the land bases cant compare to the protection from the CV.
