Just figured with so many latter war rides it might be more survivable. Dunno maybe a Z.1007 ter then?

made out of wood, BB's for guns short range  sounds like  a target for sure... Well it would be ok for the hurri and spit 1's and all the other planes that have BB guns

It's not a realy MA plane, be about as surviable as a JU 88, it has better guns though, the two 12.7mm would be Better than the 7.9's of the JU 88. It was preportedly a very tough plane, just because it's made of wood doesent mean it's week, the Mossie is a woden plane and it's prety tough. Be a good event and CT plane though.

Forget about the MA. The MA isn't an issue. Every side gets Lancs and B-17s in the MA. ;0)

(Holds up watch and gently swings it back and forth)

""The Spanish Civil War would be awesome. Uberbipes would be awesome. Planes that fought in the Spanish Civil War would be fun! Spain is fun! Think of it as the opening shots of WWII in Europe. The Sparviero would be fun. The Sparviero was in Spain. A Spanish CT setup would be fun! It would bring new blood! Italian planes fought in Spain. But not the Cant. The Sparviero. The Sparviero. And the Chirri. Those would be fun! It would be historical gameplay that doesn't hurt! It would be fun! FUN! FUN! FUN!."

When I snap my fingers you will awaken and have a strong urge to promote the Sparviero. And just as strong an urge to promote a Spanish Civil War planeset. You will recruit as many of your friends as possible to help you with this worthy endevour. You will also want to send Arlo one of each of the products offered in the Aces High merchandise. And to pay his AH account for six months.

*SNAP*

:D

I don't know about you, but I see Ju88s up all the time in the MA.  My squad flies them regularly.  I see them more often than I do B26s.

Anyone can want a Sparveiro, real men want "Tante Jus" and the Pipistrello.

with all due respect, good brady, we arent asking you to tell us how much 'better' it is, we don't want the SM79 because we think it's performance is better, and we don't care. We want the SM79 because #1. it's an italian bomber, so is the Cant, but the SM79 looks a helluva lot more fun, plus we need early war becasue the TOD starts out... in the early war!

Well if you had read the above Lengthy thread you would of Noticed that the two planes were in service prety much throught the whole war, from beging to end, so the only reasion you want the 79 is because you think it looks good which is cool by me I think it's but ugly but that just me:)

 If I remember corectly TOD is suposed to start of in Europe in 44/45, or so I read, but they may of changed their planes.
