ya biplanes would be a nice addition, but most likely wouldnt happen anytime soon due to attention on other things in progress. Wouldnt mind my He-111 and Hs-129 before that :P

The gladiator was out of date before it was put on the front line squadron,but it still gave a good account for its self.
If fought in Norway Finland England North Africa and of course there weere the famous 3 at Malta.

It woud make a nice and diferent addition to the plane set instead of alll the late war planes every one seems to want.

But there are other aircraft out there that could proberly be modeled quicker and fill in the spaces better.

We have no early russian planes,no french:rolleyes:  a early italian one.

one we thing we dont need tho are more uber late war planes

If we can get only a biplane and made a dogfigters arena....
With one fokker or a camel, only a type of plane, not too much effort to do, but tons of fun, just very closing fights

Salute all

What Rogerdee said is true, and they would make a good addition to the EW planeset. There would also be the German Hs-123, and the Russian I-153. The planeset has so many holes in it, though, that we need quite a few aircraft.

I agree.

If there is another vote hopefully the choices are restricted to early or mid war planes from countries that are not very well represented in the game.

In other words, not another US bird.
