Minus, i am JK. (just kidding)

Karnak, cool, so if every vote counts ...what will these votes accomplish? i mean is HTC standing by waiting for the final tally? I am biting my fingernails!!!!

But really, look at grunhernz response, hazed response. This is just a whoopy-de-doo post, a "what if" if ya like. Those doods must be on someones payroll to get bent out of shape I just capatilize on it is all.

BTW, P-47M was WWII AC, 56 FG only as a matter of fact..TYVM

Dowding, take a wild guess at Hazed's first choice in the German aircraft thread.


 


Of course! It's the 262!

I will post the most desired aircraft form each list.

HTC can do whatever they want with it, including ignore it.  I won't be insulted.  Hopefully it gives them a quick checkon the desires of the Aces High forum community.  That's all.

GRUNHERZ,
I included some 1945 options because I have noticed that some people like them.  HTC has already added two 1945 aircraft, the Ta152H and Ar234A.

I also had mid war aircraft on the list, such as the B-17F, P-39Q and P-40N.

As I have stated repeatedly, I think that people who use combat as their criteria are biased towards German aircraft and those who use numbers are biased towards the Allies.

The least biased thing I could come up with was production airframes.  If the was one or more production aircraft of a given type built before Japan surrendered, I consider it valid.

F-86s do not meet that criteria, nor do Mig-15s, B-36s or Meteor MkIVs.

OK diffuse time Karnak, It was a  thoughtful thing to post, and I got recreation from it, and I appreciate it. I certainly didnt think of it. Please dont get offended, I was only making light of it. I have tuff skin and sometimes I just assume everyone else does too.

BTW..did I mention that the P-47M is my pick?

OK back to the subject at hand..

P-47M!

Heh, I took your question seriously, but not as an insult.  I answered in under the assumtion that you were curious.

No offense was taken.

Actually the 234 is a mid-late 1944 plane, but I get ur point. The problem is that its really hard for me accept planes that did not fight in the war. For example I dont want a Do335 in AH, as for the 152 im no comfortable with it either as far too few saw far too little service.

As for what US planes I really want, it be some sort of P39 or P40, maybe the AVG type P40s as those are really classic looking planes, but i dont know too much about them.

IMHO P-40 is one of the best looking planes USA has ever produced thought P-63 could be more suitable for MA.

ps that P-40 is from CFS2 and it sure is a candy with its landing gears and flaps down and cowling flaps open

Btw I really really want a PV-2D Harpoon, it really should of been included in this list.

But it comes only after my earlier vote for the A-26, after which comes the A-20, and THEN the PV-2D.

Oh and after flying the CFSII R4D, I want it as another C-47 variant

Heh Imagine 10 of those R4D's flying in tight form with single digit framerates  

Computers are developing just like video accelerators so maybe in next 3-4 years all planes in flight-sims are like that

Wildcat, but would need other early war a/c in the arena so it would have any chance

or the B-25 or B-24.
