I'm hitting it for ammo sake  and the 47m was insignifecent not as bad as the ta-152 ....go away!


Don't think that will help really.  He is on the warpath about the P-47D-23.  Not sure he cares about the M.

Fixed

 It and a couple of others you probable don't think should be included would expand the country plane set and prospective players

Just say you don't like the French and move on!

Got nothing against the French.  Their automobiles are amazing!  Take that Renaught Clio for example :D

And Australia was still part of the British commonwealth ..... still even .... even still (RAAF/ANZACs are represented in AH just fine).   :aok



As you see.

Meg, you can surely make a better argument for the Dewoitine D.520 than attempting to tie it to Australia's coat tails (or project a need to include every nation that had an airplane in WWII).  :D

I watched a guy fly a Citroën of a cliff above a horse boarding stable once as a youngster... they make awesome flying cars as well  :D

We should get at least 3 French fighters in the plane set :)

The D520 is often disregarded because it was an early war fighter, and it wasn't used/continually produced. Building it will not reach new subscribers from France  :rofl

Yet, it is the best France at to offer early war and was far from ridiculous as far as performances/weapons go. 1 20mm Cannon and 4 Mgs. It did produce Aces, it did shot down more advance fighters when used by Vichy and Allies alike.

France did play a center role in WW2 and as such should have it's lead fighter represented in Aces High. And I honestly think it'll be a fun plane in Aces High from time to time like the C202, I16, Brew. I was bummed out when I learned that it was discarded by Hitech's.

Comes with a variety of colorfull camoed paintschemes, even shamefull ones  :uhoh


As far as the D23 ... hehehe ... I'm 56FG after all ... it's maybe like the 109F4, the most performant turnfighter of the line, the Paddle Prop, the benefits of the razorback aerodynamics and the hardpoints of the Bubbletops. If you call it insignificant, you should wonder why most of the skins of the D11 are D23s.  :D

I was deployed to RAF Fairford for DESERT STORM.  While there, the highlight of our day was when the Brit that hauled the trailer full of bombs down from Welford would give us a copy of that day's Sun.  We turned directly to page 3.  Teets are good.

Some are pretty and some as hideous as the P47-N/D40s colors.

Do the ailerons drop along with the flaps? Looks like it from that landing photo. Wonder what that will do in the MA in our style of aerobatic silliness to have your ailerons droop along with the flaps?

The boomerang would be more effective, but does not look nearly as good, and doesn't have a soul whatsoever.
