If you're going to quote a movie, at least QUOTE the movie. ;-)

Um, and it's actually a Sit-Com, not a movie.

The really funny thing about that vote was that in the final round almost 50% voted for the P-39, but ever since its introduction, only 5% fly it once in a while...

So next time, watch out for what you actually vote, you just might get it. 

This is why we needed/got the P39s. Just because you dont see them a lot in the LW MAs doesnt mean people arent using them.

[Anaxogoras]

Absolutely, the P-39 is an excellent aircraft for FSO/Scenarios, but I still think an He-111, Pe-2 or Ki-43 would've been even better on the same merits.

Plane production should always be priority number one for HTC.

Didn't they build B-25s and P-39s throughout almost the entire war?



B-25 was a front line bomber when it came to attack sorties and anti shipping runs... etc.

They made good targets in last week's FSO, too

Every one of those p39's in that screen shot died at the hands of a Muppet. 

FLY FSO!

Maybe a "MA Poll" and a "SEA Poll" ?

[LTARghst]

Forget the new Bombers, already enough toolshedders here, lets get some new maps!

ummm no, it's a movie called "Stripes" with Bill Murry. What Sitcom are you thinking of?

Fixed  (it was really late)  So late I don't remember, now.

P-39 is a Russian plane as much as it is an American. At least if who used them counts more than who made them.

[Anaxogoras]

Alright.  I'm done being polemical.  We will now return to our regularly scheduled whine.

That should slow some of the whiners down while they dash for the dictionary.

So the moral of this thread is...we need the He-111 right?

Yep, pretty much...
