B29 would be fun, but there would have to be some kind of effective high-altitude flack &&/|| something like the Me163 to balance it. As it is I'm generally unmolested at 35K in a B17; a B29 would go higher than the 17 and carry more than the Lanc; it would be virtually untouchable in the main. Definatly a perk plane, but one I'd be inclined to use.

I'd like to see the B24, personally. Bigger load, but easier to kill. Harder to fly, also, and not as tough as the B17.

Arado 234 B-2/N Nachtigall (nightingale) which was modified Ar 234 B "Blitz" bomber

Armed with two 20 mm MG 151 (2x200 rds) and equipped with FuG 216 Neptun V or FuG 218 radar.
Would be just too deadly plane to give for bomber pilots...

Bomber Perks? B24, A20 & HP Halifax? Hope you're not meaning that you'd actually think that these are perk planes?

Anyway, yeah, I'd love to see the B29 and the gondola cannon armed Ar234 would be nice too!
