Hm. It's like the D-9 of the C.2 family.
It is 100% unrelated to the C.2 family.

This I know, I am not a complete idiot, thank you very much.

I was simply comparing its longer sleeker lines to those of the very similar family of airframes.

Isn't there one of the 110's even rarer than the 152's?
In that the engines modelled may have been ultra rare?
Just seem to recall a thread many moons ago on them.


  Kev,I think your refering to the Bf110C 4b,it's equipped with high alt engines,IDRC the exact model of hand.

  It appears it was a rather low production unit but I'd have to look up the exact number produced.

It looks like a nice addition, but was it flown enough to make the requirements for HTC. I would be in favor of bringing this plane so it gets my vote +1

Also, how many 47M's were produced? Not many IIRC
133 according to one source.
Mosquito VI - twice the spitfire, four times the ENY.

The rest of the world (meaning not America) is smart enough to have the metric system as the standard. Metric is much easier, you count by tens and a Millimeter is more precise than an inch. Just some food for thought.

If at least they used knots which is in nautical miles then it would make some sense. A nautical mile is 1 arc minute on the circumference of the earth. Makes it a bit easier to convert from coordinates to actual distance on a sphere.

Exactly. The old English system of measurement... 4 gills= 1 pint, 2 pints= 1 quart, 4 quarts= gallon, 31.5 gallons= barrel. 12 inches= foot, 3 feet= yard. 5,280 ft= a mile. WTF!?

In metric, 10mm is equal to one cm. one gram is equal to 1000 milligrams. You count by tens and it can't get much simpler. I hope the change is made in my lifetime.  :rolleyes:




...and now back to the topic.

Oh yes, obviously convenience and homogenization are the only worthwhile goals in life. Why, I positively look FORWARD to the day when everyone from Greenland to Chile, from Kamchakta to Ireland, from Albania to Zambia, is not only measuring with the same oh-so-convenient decimal "math for dummies" increments, but also drinking the same Coca-Cola, eating the same McDonalds/PizzaHut/Taco Bell takeout, and watching "American Idol" on their tvs while wearing virtually identical shorts, T-shirts, and ballcaps...what a WONDERFUL world it will be with no inconvenient differences between us.

Feet, Bushels, Rods, Fathoms, Shaku, Bu, Cubits, Forgengs, Dessiatines and etc. forever!!!!

The 47M and the C-Hog are awesome and great additions to the game but with airframes built easily measured in dozens the purist in me cries out for the Yak-3, P-40N, Beaufighter and the Pe-2! These aircraft were much more likely to be seen in the skies of WWII.   :salute
