The B-29 shouldn't have even been in the list.  Compared to all the needed aircraft, it's not even a hard decision (imo).

American bombers in-game: 6
Total number of Japanese a/c in-game: 8
Total number of Russian a/c in-game: 5 (2 LAs & 2 Yaks, big variety there)

Horrible idea imo to let the community decide.  Most of the people who would vote for the B-29 have never had to fly a totally ridiculous substitution aircraft in an historical event due to lack of JP/Russian planes.  Anyone who voted for the B-29 should be forced to fly Spit1s in the next BoB while massed JU-88s tear them apart.  PTO events don't need some super bomber that can level an entire field in one shot.  Oh, and the airfields would need remodeled again.

B-29 = FAIL!

I promise to HO & then collide with every one that I ever come across!

I would love to fly spit1 in the next BoB, the problem is they always give me something else

Beautiful picture.
I voted for the He 111, although the Superfortress will win without question so there's no point in even voting, really (not that that means you should vote  ).

Sad to see the Beau didn't make the cut.  It covered the most history, theaters and options for MA use.  Somewhat tells me that most of the vote is based on name recognition.

That being said.

B-29 is the last thing this game needs.
A-26 does nothing for the special events guys.  While I enjoy fighting Cobia38, he does just fine in an A20
Me410 is much the same but won't be the performer folks think it will be.  In that regard it will provide a challenge for a few but doesn't help the SEA guys nearly enough


So He111 is my choice if only for the way it can be used for special events.  I do believe after the initial novelty wears off, it will rarely be used in the MA.

[whiteman]

honestly anything new is a win, really wanted the Ki-45 but I'll settle for the B-29. I'll be voting He-111 and A-26 last round but we know what's coming.

I'm still disappointed that the P-61 a/b didn't even make it into the initial poll.      Then the Beau was knocked out.    So I guess I'll vote for the Superfort, not for bombing power, or speed, or even the nook (just kidding)  It goes deeper than that, its all about the engineering that went into the design and production of the B-29 with its 141ft long wings, pressurized cabins and the remote turrets.

Now my question is, if the 29 wins and the cabin is punctured, will the pixel pilot be forced to descend to lower altitude due to cabin depressurization?  What will happen to the stewardess and the drink carts?  Will people still get their peanuts?

Oh yea...I still want the P-61

I remember in Air Warrior we used to dogfight in the A-26 just for the novelty, kind of like what some people do in the A-20 now.

the A-26 (like all bombers) in AW was also incredibly over modeled and inaccurate, that is why we had B-17s that were the best turn/stall fighters in the game.

ack-ack

Now my question is, if the 29 wins and the cabin is punctured, will the pixel pilot be forced to descend to lower altitude due to cabin depressurization?  

Would be an entirely new feature. We already have at least one plane with a pressurized cockpit.

Uhoh. Here comes the stuka29s
