What they need to do is focus on early war birds, that way our ubber rides will have more meaning, and probably may get perked more them selfs.

Its a shame we only have a small hand full of perked aircraft, no fine line, nothing in between, no 1-5 perk aircraft, or anything like that.

And it would be nice IMHO.

its about how much impact the wish will have in game. If you ask for a nuke, it would have a huge impact, but itd kill the fun of the game, on the other hand, you ask for waves in the ocean and itd also kill the fun of the game cause itd make people FPS crash like a mofo. Things such as the M4, B25 and P39 HTC thought would have a large impact in game, how ever you see the P39 sittin in hangar more than it seems to be landing kills. The B25 and M4 seeem to almost always be used, but these 3 items have/had a big impact in game.
jtty, 1plus44 loves the P39 and im starting to like it, and it does get kills, just not when ur on  :lol, ive seen more ppl fly it then you would think uber... and no, its not multiple shades of 1plus  :D

The P39 had all the hype, and TBH I'm glad the 25 got added first. Look at the P39. The D is rarely used and the Q I almost NEVER see. Only one I know that flies the 39 is 1+44...

I guess you see it's impact depending where you play. Seems like the last few FSO's had the 39, I know it's crazy but the LW MA's aren't the only arenas.

I'd like to see the P-61, always fun to have something new.

There are far more planes needed before the P-61 should even be considered being added.

Only four P-61s are thought to exist today.

The second is on display at the Smithsonian's Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Center in Washington DC.

The fourth is currently (and slowly) being restored at the Mid-Atlantic Air Museum at the Reading, PA, airport. It was discovered on a mountainside in New Guinea. Check out
Didn't realize there were only 4.  Was eyeing the the first one a few days ago.  Seen the second one many times visiting MAAM.

The problem with this logic is that FSO's and special events are generally day time operations and the P-61 was a night fighter. The only night ops I've ever seen was one of the Sunday events and that was RAF vs. Luftwaffe. It's scenario use is pretty much irrelevant.

Really... how many times has a plane had to have been subbed for the P61? Now think how many times aircraft are subbed for the Beaufighter, Buffalo, He-111, G4M, and Ju-52. Even for the standard M4 Sherman.

BTW... I think that over time P39 usage has slowly inclined in the MA. When you think about it, it doesn't really make sense that an aircraft with such odd flight characteristics would catch on quickly.
Maybe Lusche could....

The one at M.A.A.M. is going to fly someday :pray  but it still has a long way to go.  It will probably be air worthy about the same time we get one in AH.
