Old fellow that I know from around here to fly them(he was in on Ploesti). I asked him about the durability. He just outright laughed. He had no problems with the toughness. Soooooo, I asked him about that nose wander thing. He said that wasn't funny at all. The nose apparently did crab around.

Also he said the B24 was a very physically demanding plane to fly. The rudders REALLY fought back.

I have it from a very reliable source (puts my Magic-8-Ball behind my back) That the next plane will be PBY.

So, Does anyone else want to ask my Magic-8-Ball what might be next after that?? Its very reliable.

Not only did the rudders fight back, but it was extremely demanding to keep it steady at high altitude because the elevators wouldnt hold steady. But, you cant really model the poor flight qualities like that into a game, especially with autopilot and things of the sort.

Only allow a player to up a B-24 if the game recognizes his stick as a Logitech.
