We'll never see the 29 I believe. Nor will dedicated bomber sticks, like Rodney Dangerfield, ever get true respect.

                        I love the AH level bombers dont get me wrong. And I think AH did a great job modeling them. But we only have what? 7 of them and 1 perk bomber?? Of these the JU-88, the Boston, the B-25c, and the 234 would qualify as "Queens"? Even tho the 234 and JU are to good to be a Queen. The Boston is a true Queen, actually its closer to a 'hoe. Ive never once seen one in the air. The 25c is a Queen no doubt. Who in their right mind would take those when they could have 26s?

                    We deserve a 2nd perk bomber. Tho it would be hard to tear myself from those incredible KI-67s right now.;)

the bostons are far better than the ki67.

faster and a much better climbrate, with a much bigger payload. bostons rock, but no-one uses them.

Please quote where anyone from HTC has said no to the B-29.

Rich if you get the chance ask a squad to fly in an FSO with them. This game is much more than the MAs.

                     I was in a squad. I just am in a stage where I prefer doing my own thing right now. Ive been asked to join quite a few squads. This game is full of reall good people in a lot of real good squads.

                  My general impression is were never going to see the 29. I hope Im wrong cause it would be a great addition to the game.

                 The Boston?? The only real thing that turns me off about it is its lack of defensive guns. One .303 turret just aint going to do it for me. The KI-67 is far better defended, almost as fast, and carries almost the same bombload. The Boston was doomed from the git-go cause this is a game where guys like guns. IMOHO. But...maybe Ive been missing somthing with the Bostons.

            Perked 29s would be a great addition to an already 1st class bomber lineup.

                         Actually I checked last night. The Boston has a lousy bombload, only 2,000lbs. The KI-67s is 1,780 lbs so its almost the same. Even better in that it has a 8 100kg bombload option, "220 lbs".

                      Four 250 lb bombs or 4 500 lb bombs and one dual .303 top turret with a lot of blind spots. The thing is basically undefendable. The top turret has lousy rotation and gunnery views.

                      I myself have never once seen one in the air. I nominate the Boston as the ultimate "Hangar Queen".

Thread on dogfighting in the Boston. Apparently there are a few who can take on fighters pretty well after their eggs are gone.

The Boston rocks.  Fast, and has a great climb rate.  The reason You don't see them is because the thumb twitchers who never take them above 10K get killed alot in it, and they leave it alone.    The Boston is great if you take it to just below the cloud layer at 17K.  All the weed whackers are far below you, and can't get up to you before you drop your load on target.  If they do try to climb up to get you, they are slow and have no hope to catch you, also a shallow dive back to the closest base will extend your escape and put your pursuer in amongst friendly fighters before he can catch you.  

Sheesh, people don't think about tactics anymore.  All the thumb twitching, weed whacking, squeeking, Quake players are down low.  It is the fastest way to get to the closest enemy base.  That EverCrack mentality they have, can work to your advantage, if you just think about how to get around their playing style.

I love taking Bostons into "meat grinders"  because it generally means that I can fly over their base with impunity at 17K and drop any target I want and get home unscathed.

Well to anyone who enjoys flying the thing, and has success with it, I you. I admit I have no experience in it. And I admit "speed" and "planning" are the two most important aspects of strategy in flying bombers. Its a big reason, the most important reason, I fly 26s and KI-67s. I fly them at 10,000' to 15,000' because I "want" to heat up the guns.

                     "Speed" brings the fight into the horizontal. And bomber sticks have no fear of the horizontal.

                   Ive taken Bostons up in the TA a few times. The lack of rotation and coverage of that top turret, as well as the puny cartridge, frankly, makes me nervous. I like big guns, being an American, and that top cannon of the KI makes me feel like Dirty Harry Callahan.

                 "Ya feel lucky"? "Weeell dooya punk"?

You are missing the point. Fly a Friday night Squad Op and see what some of these "hanger queens" can do with a historical match up.

Usually fly at full throttle rather than any sort of historical cruise setting, making them out to be much better than they were.

There is a reason Boston III squads were delighted to get Mosquito IVs, but from AH you'd hardly know why.

True but it's a little closer than MA match ups.

yeah but once this bomb goes off it would kill u if u are 5k from the ground... maybe no atomic bomb for the  b29 but just a bigger payload.
