Then don't open up by calling this post "Petitioin for Reason" because the implication is that what is happeneing now is unreasonable. Your article goes on to say that the planes being added are "uninteresting" and questioning why HTC put these planes in here. It's great that you have an opinion, but don't express it by thrashing mine

and frankly your not going to change my opinion id rather have old warplanes that we dont have then old warplanes of newer models ... and its obvious the p40 isnt the same plane as the p51 but in all respect. a simulated real combat mission would require bombers and high flying alt planes. something the p51 is more fitted for.
You should probably learn the game before you get all lippy on the boards. By this standard, we should only fly three or four planes, the B-17 the Lanc the pony and maybe the jug. Since a "simulated real combat mission" requires high alt bombers with hight alt escorts. I guess we should throw in the 109G10 and the 190 A8 so that there are some planes to shoot down those bombers.

No, there are many different types of missions, and not all of them take place at 20,000 feet. Try the tank battles on furball island for example.
i thought that was what AH was combat simulator... try working with your team and get the hell out of your p40.
So now I'm not a team player because I and my squad don't turn lazy circles around a bunch of buffs at 20,000 feet for hours on end?

What kind of teamater are you in your slow moving Yugo plane? Really. This silly thinking might be an attemt to undermine my position, but it does nothing to support yours.
but then again this is my opinion and if you dont like it .. dont spam my thread with downing other peoples opinion.. post your opinion instead ... like others haev done .. like i like the p40 because it does this to the zero etc.
I did give my opinion. You asked "why fly a P-40 when you can fly a p51"? I said "It's more gratifying" You asked "why is HTC giving us P-40s?" and I said "Because some of us asked for them. Just because you don't like my opinion doesn't make it go away.
its a valid opinion that i respect
worrying about whether or not you respect my opinion; it keeps me up at night.
anyway ... IF AH IS GOING TO PUT OLD PLANES IN THE GAME AT LEAST DO COUNTRIES WE DONT ALREADY HAVE american british and german ... nothing wrong with a yugoslav plane or a french plane or something geez besides if they are going to make a scenario they should have the plane sets all ready instead of integrating them before hand just so they can do it im tired of typeing later
If you're going to bash the P-40 as an addition to AH, you probably shouldn't bring up scenarios. The P-40 is one of the most versitile planes in the set when it comes to scenario play. I don't think you actually know what you want, but you are trying mighty hard to make some sort of point.
As I said, I have no problem with having a Yugo plane added to the set. I'm on record as wanting to see more Italian and at least one French model. I'd even like to see the Australian Boomerang modeled. I like diversity in the plane set. But don't come out of the gates with this "Unreasonable" nonsense. There are pleanty of reasons for the 1.10 planeset that are reasonable. In fact, here's a thread I started a while ago where I and a few others tried to nail down the best way to find new planes to add.
http://www.hitechcreations.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=49048It was a constructive exchange of ideas. Mostly because Bullethead and I didn't polorize the argument from the outset by calling one another unreasonable or our planes uninteresting.
