B-29 Super Fortress

Look at the sky, lol. I thought you took a picture of the B17 from inside the cockpit in the skin viewer before I realized the purpose of the picture

lol. I could see the curvature of the AH earth from up there!

I wish they just made the B-29 a sticky thread

The Ta 152H's climb rate is miserable... well, maybe not miserable but pretty close, especially when you're talking about climbing to 40k+ (well, anything's climb rate is miserable when you have to climb that high). On top of that, once you get there you still have to attack the bombers... the inline engined 190's (D and H) all have that glass annular radiator in front... seems like it only takes  one or two .50's to cut your flight time to another 5 minutes or so. Not so viable an interceptor when you're attacking the fastest piston engined bombers of the war. The only real option for attacking Superfortresses at altitude would be the Me 163.

My quote was about seing the curiture of the AH areana not attacking B29's

and last but not least
Free H2H (for you cheapos who do not want to pay)

I am all for B29's, they will let you kill multiple bases in one sortie!!! . But serisouly, the current bombers don't have the bomb load to do that, and the B29 was faster then any jap fighter, and I would assume faster then around half the fighters in the game, plus in Titanic Tuesday we bombed those base so much there was a huge crater where the base and town used to be but we still had to wait 1 hr to land troops.

GAME BALANCE, ever heard of it?

I honestly don't think the runway thing is gonna be much of an issue.  (At least not for me anyway.)  For those people using that as an exuse to keep this plane out of AH, I've got a video I'd love to show you involving me in a B-17 landing on a CV, loading and fueling up, then taking off again.  And you're gonna tell me that given a full runway I wont get a B-29 off the ground?

[trax1]

Just add the damn thing, so we can move on.

Next threads
Me-410

Thats the plane I'd really like to see added, was hoping it was gonna win the vote we had for the next plane instead of the B-25.

Find me a runway traveling at 35 knots.  Then, put a hill at the end of it.

Yes. Because as Wrongway said, that runway is moving at 35 knots, which means it is as if the runway is much longer than it actually is. Also, I GUARANTEE you were not carrying much fuel on your aircraft. I've landed, rearmed, and launched Lancasters off of carriers. The trick is fuel, weight, oh, and the runway is MOVING!!!
