Pyro....Slipper D/Ts on Spit V ?
« on: May 28, 2002, 07:59:04 AM »
Hiya Pyro.....just wanted to throw out a reminder as 1.10 is being produced and worked on.  A long time back, I believe it was version 1.05 you had talked about putting a "small slipper" tank on the Spit V.  It didn't make it into that update so anticipated it might come in 1.06.  After version 1.06 came and went with no Slipper thought I would ask about it and I asked too late to see it in version 1.07.  So thought it would come in 1.08....it came and went, but no Slipper.  I then thought perhaps in 1.09, but didn't send a reminder note (or question about it) and 1.09 came and went without the lil ole slipper.

Soooooo....thought I would ask if a slipper tank for the SpitV was still being thought about or if you scrubbed the idea.  As you can see I am quite patient about such things, but was curious and thought if you had forgotten about it maybe a quick note like this would be a reminder.  I recognize there are alot more important issues confronting you guys in 1.10, but ifluff'n you could let us know that would be appreciated.

I'll punt this.
There must also be a flyable computer available for Nefarious to do FSO. So he doesn't keep talking about it for eight and a half hours on Friday night!

Being a non-Spit flier in AH (I love my La-5), but a Spitfire enthusiast, it would be nice if the Spit V had her slipper tanks.

It has a very short range compared to her sister spitfires and DT's would be ideal for the 1.5 fuel burn rate in the MA.

I suggest also droptanks on the wings of certain 190s.

Only the F-8 Fishu. Even then I think it would still be historically inaccurate.

I thought UBB etiquette meant at least FAKING a reason to bring something up on the activity list.  Like, whenever it drops too far, post a message asking "So, anyone else have an opinion?" or "btw, I found this pic of what the tank looked like (w/ a pic)".

I never realized all you had to do was keep posting 'punts'.
