Not Landcaster Mk III.

Crappy handling? Ok, you can't loop-a loop with it, but at alt it's a great bomber! (even without it's bombs :))

The way people fly Lancs in the MA, it is fitting, to be called "Landcaster" :D

I did a deep penetration raid to an enemy city last night in Lancs.  Climbed to 15,000ft.  Fought and downed a Spitfire Mk IX, taking hits but no systems damage.  Fought off a pass by an La-7.  Nailed the city, taking out about a third of it.  Fought off the La-7 taking heavy damage to the engines on my #1 bomber and losing the top turret on all three bombers.  Having only fifty rounds of .50 cal ammo left I was unable to fight off the Bf110C-4b that came at me next.

I love 'em too. Everyone should get to see one fly in real life.

Such noble planes, eh Pooh21?

Yes, but they get the job done, wouldn't you say? Do you enjoy flying them?

When I want to be bored and fly a bomber I fly a b17 as they look much better. Also more fun to go in during the day instead of hiding like a coward in the dark.

I didn't realise the Lancaster was only enabled at night-time.
