Wow, well you did good in proving me wrong, and you proved the stupidity of the HiTech staff, they clearly don't understand the concept of getting more supplies to a specific location faster. They clearly don't understand anything....explains a lot for the some of the crappy gameplay, HA. Everytime I see an answer from one of these people its always defensive and we're not trying to mimic it but simulate it," both those things go hand in hand in my opinion."

not bad for a 7th post !!!  :lol

Don't pay any attention to the last sentence in my last post, I don't know why I added it.

It is not the end, it is not even the beginning of the end, but it is, perhaps, the end of the beginning.

I did not know that this plane existed.  Thank you for bringing it to my attention.  With that said I think it would be a good add for AH.  Here is a pic:

Wrong Way, I may have a solution, It could be set so you can carry multiple airfield cargos but no matter how many you drop only one will count. I would fly it so I could re supply multiple bases in one flight. If HT has a problem with efficency the I don't know how we got some of the planes we have. And if you have a problem with my solution then let me offer this as a rebutle: it will just cut down on the time it takes to re supply the bases, and MABY the ease (mostly due to the guns, but I guess you could call taking SLIGHTLY less time easier then I guess I can't do anything about that.

Why does everyone want the Ju52 when there are clearly supperior aircraft out there? I still say the Ju290.

Plus Ju52 isn't as sleek and sexy  :rock , and if i'm correct, I beleive the 290 was faster than both the C47 and Ju52.

See, there ya go. If I have the right plane in mind the the Ju52 had corrugated sides, three engines and was ugly as hell.

Because not everyone wants the 'bestest awrpwane evar'. Some like the historical feeling if flying a Ju52 with their squaddies in 109s and 190s.

I get ya, but it would get old awfully fast; getting shot down so much. At least for me it would.

Because the Ju 52/3m was the German equivalent of the DC-3/C47. It was simply a workhorse aircraft. It was a popular airliner before and during the war, and there's at least one still flying that does passenger flights (more for the fact that you're flying in a 1930's airliner than for practicality I think... but still). There's no other aircraft in German service during WWII that was as important or had as wide a legacy as the Tante Ju. It was a transport, a bomber, it dropped Fallschirmjaegern... the Ju 52 was the aircraft that carried men into the first airborne invasion in history (the Invasion of Crete). It's just an aircraft with an extreme historical background. And it's cool as hell (I mean, three engines!)

I see where you're coming from, I'd just like to see something new, an aircraft that wasn't popular but was in service and operational in squadron strength. The 290 is also my favorite plane too, adding to the reason I want to see it made for AH, cause in my opinion (without the nose gun), it was as sleek and sexy as any fighter could be.

If I have the right plane in mind the the Ju52 had corrugated sides, three engines and was ugly as hell.
