Also, the F4F is a squeak to fly.  The FM2 is much more forgiving and less prone to snaprolling in tight turns, closer to the Brewster in flight characteristics.


From Lentäjän Näkökulma 2, "Pilot's Point of View 2":

"The Brewster went into a turn clearly faster than a Curtiss or a Spitfire. During turns the control harmony was good. BW warned with a tremble when the stall was near, but didn't tend to snaproll. The BW could be pulled without care and even flown incorrectly. Turning ability was quite good, a 180 degree turn from 350 km/h IAS took 7 seconds at 2 km."

Hey, Kanttori, glad to hear of your progress with terrain.  Sorry I haven't been more vocal in here in the last week, but the current CT set up has been keeping me hopping.  It sounds great, and yes I got your e-mail.  The backwoods airfields are cool, by the way.  I can't wait to see the reskinned aircraft as well.  I would second the above suggestion that you create skins for both the F4F and FM-2.  I'd like to have the option of using either as a means of balancing the planeset.  I'm glad you went with the idea of creating two primary sides, making the German and Finnish fields all one country.  I'll just need an update one which fields should have Luftwaffe planes and which should have Finnish AF planes.  Really looking forward to this one.

Sounds good, Kanttori.  I'll have to decline the invitation, as I'll be at work (they seem to take a dim view of playing games on company computers, especially when I'm supposed to be working).  Looking forward to seeing the terrain update.

We have now new edited skins on next planes:
FINLAND:  Junkers Ju88 and Hurricane I
RUSSIA: Boston III

And C-47 is edited "neutral" to both countries. All new skins looks great and more is coming daily!:D

I can send the new edited map with new skins to CT staff next weekend.

I'm 100% for a Brewster Buffalo but maybe I'm just predudice.
