I am shocked that AKAK has not come in here spouting racist and profane comments yet.

But on topic, The Boomerang saw plenty of combat and flew in squadron strength, last check counted about 120 Boomerangs in service during WW2 flying close support. They hit hard, fight hard... and play hard  :devil

the only beef I have is that it is slow, but with Hurricanes, Zekes and Brewsters, who is complaining.

Laidies and Gentlemen I Give you the,

The cool thing about the Boomerang is that it will always return you back to base.  Always thought it would be a nice addition to the mid-war plane set and probably would see a lot of use for base defense.
