Next Aces High Fighter to be Added
« on: August 21, 2023, 03:17:50 AM »


With this I'd cleanly be able to out-turn Techwrek's FM-2, out-zoom Stepsis' Ta152 and with its 12 50-cals and inflight-adjustable convergence be able to shoot down a Yak-3 if I aimed at the tiny fuel tank very carefully.

You have the traditional 2-weeks to add it otherwise I'm cancelling my subscription...

 :aok. Fantastic!  Should dominate in the WWI arena!

For those who may not know, here is the original inspiration of the craft, from the Halloween special, "It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown!"



My other favorite cartoon as a kid in the 60s.

Wow!  I'd bail rather than fight Snoopy.

Thanks for posting!  :aok

Was a time you could fly the RV-8 with 4 20mm. 

And there were space aliens and flying saucers and a mothership.  :old:

This would be cool to have for April Fool's, or maybe Halloween since that's when he made his appearance.

This would be a terrible upset for Violator's 'Why only flying one plane is not the answer' thread, this would be the ideal ride for any situation, especially with a > 1:1-thrust-mass ratio.  :banana:
