They also made ice cream by putting cream and sugar in drop tanks and flying to altitude to freeze it~ I suppose that could be a perk option for resupplying a base.

The troop carrying pods for the P-38 weren't experimental and were used, though not often.

I remember when you talked about the troop carrying pods, but do not recall if they actually used that method, thanks for correcting me on that. As for the torpedoes, was that experimental or was it practical?

Nice discussion.  I haven't logged in and flew in what seems like a millineum, and there are many planes modeled now thyat weren't when I was active.  When I was with the 56th FG, we learned and flew the D11 and D40 the way it was supposed to flown and did quite well with it.  we would go up in a group in an event or in the MA when our individual schedules allowed, and we terrorized.

I thought that aerial Torpedoes were all but phased out by all air forces well before the end of the war.

Ammo, how the hell have you been? It's great to see you here.

For those who wouldn't know, Ammo was one of my mentors when I first started playing a very long time ago.

USAAF was experimenting with glide torpedoes dropped from B-25Js during the last couple of weeks of the war.

Doing great WW.  I have been all over the place but have been working in Germany since 2006.  Retired from the USAF last year and took one of those silly DOD civilian jobs.

I have missd AH for a long time and seriously considering buying a desktop computer and gear so I can start again.  I would definitely be a rookie again if I do so:)

Hope all is well with you!

I want to be this guy...

If you see a P-47 with a red icon and it's LePape , chances are your gonna get hurt .
