:rofl  :lol

the part the puzzles me are the words "much needed"...didn't know a heavily perked single pass base killer was needed that badly.

Hmmm ... where did you read ... "much needed" ? I see "long waited" ... I see "adding another needed perk bomber" ... never the word "much" mentioned at all.

This long awaited addition recently won a players poll as the most wanted new aircraft.  Besides adding another needed perk bomber to Aces High it also marks the introduction of a player flyable B-29 to the online combat flight sim universe.

LOL, task groups will not survived once the B-29 drop its ords. 

people need to learn what "turn the boat" means.

Didn't vote for it, didn't want it, but have to admit: it *is* pretty.  Nicely done, HTC.    :salute

They are slightly open just like they are in the remodelled N1K2... ;)

Kinda funny how after all of those years with only the Ar234 as a perk bomber, two new perk bombers will have been added in relatively short succession.
