I'd like to see some Canadian marked aircraft sometime...
During the war the Canadians flew:
Spitfires mk's Vb, IX, IXB, LF. XVI, F.VIII, LF. IXc.
also the P-39, Albatross, Avenger, Catalina, C-47/DC-3, B-17, Hurricane, B-24, Lancaster(i think the lanc in AH already has canadian markings cause it looks mysteriously like from Moose squadron), P-51, Sea Fury, Seafire, Tempest, and the Typhoon. If at least one of these Canadian used A/C could be included sometime I think it would be cool.
Who agrees?

American marked Catalinas & Liberators couldn't hurt either

B-24 in Canadian markings? No thank you, for this plane you gotta have American markings.

Canadians never flew P39s. (Maybe in RAF). We did have lots of P40s though. And P51s and mosquitos. A canadian won the VC in a corsair. Our use of B17s and B24s was limited to Maritime patrol I believe.
But Short Stirlings and Halifaxs would be cool.
Of course Spit 1 wasnt on your list. Hudsons,Bostons,B26s(RAF service)
Beaufighters, Bleinhems
Some RCAF wing comanders had their own 190s 109s.

Yes they did have p39's.
go read the Canadian AF webpage and look at the historical pics....P39..it's right there...it was used in the pacific theater cause all the hurricanes and stuff were off on the other side.
and b-17's were used in bombing..but we didnt have many so it was not well known.
