Supermarine Seagull V

+1 its a long way down the list... very long way, but why not!

Might be a little under armed and did not carry bombs. But it sets a cracking pace at over 70MPH!

Bet the first week after this is introduced, everyone will defend bases with it using the HO. And that will be the only thing anyone will remember. Bomr = HOer = Hurri IIc.

Then everyone will be merge shy with like against the Hurri.

This is like the old joke that voters are harsher to their beer brewer if he has an outage, than their politicians after raising their taxes. Death and taxes are certain but, fun and sex is only now.

I'm all for it.  I think we need to do whatever we can to get more Aussies into the game.

How is that different from planes like the P-51, F4U or La-7 HOing everything in sight?

Hey Phatz, you just spurred me to look it up on adf serials, it is a Seagull.

Look at the serial on the tail a2-18 and check it.
