Anyone care to make another guess?


P-38 comes to mind.    But, I prefer my F6.  :D

I quite like a bit of night....... although I dont think I "black out" quite as much as some claim...........

About its constant occurance always at prime time......... I really cant see this............. its not a 24 hour clock, night time is actually shortened by many hours so the main arena clock is out of synch with real time (its day is much shorter).  

Hence this co incidence of night with prime time would occur once every few days.........

Unless of course "prime time" is some period about 12 hours long and measured across all US time zones.

Night blows!  There's no need for it.  If you are going to turn up the Gama or the bright, why not just get rid of it.

You night time supporters don't do this do you?  That proves the point you don't want it either.

It's the Corsair with the light up sight plate. People didn't know this?

But night still isn't worth playing.

Night time is the right time to logout.
If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude than the animated contest of freedom, go from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains sit lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen!

I think the Night / Dawn time is appropriate. The ONLY problem that I Have with it is that the Mission Editor doesn't work during that time. IMO - if you can up a mission at night for a dawn raid on a base, It would make the night more strategic cover.

IE - lancs timing out HQ attack so its night when over target :)

The best night fighter has to be the Hog with the light-up gun sight. IMHO, anyway.:D

The Truth Is Out There.

Now get out of your Spitfires and FM2s and go fly like a real man.
