1) You guys are going to agree on the name before it's released, right? No funny "Petition to call the Emily some thing more feminine" threads, right?


2) Perk it!

WOW, what a beautiful plane, thank you Mitsu for sharing that with us.

 Clearly it would take some doing on HTC's part but what a wounderfull adation to AH she would be. Not only is she one of the most famious of all Japanese planes from WW2, but an extreamly capable adation, and the Japanese planeset would gaine so much from hear adation.

Thanks Mitsu.

I really, really want this aircraft in AH.

Do you have any diagrams for the Emily as you did for the Ki-67?
