 There seems to be an endless supply of versions of LW planes, and others. No problem. But,Isn't it time to start putting the ver. in the icon. There are more versions of the 109 than there are types of Japanese planes. What the limits of these 109,s are, vary wildly.

 Or possibly remove plane type from the icon altogether. That would make things real interesting.

Would be kind of hard to tell the difference between the 109 variants in real life unless very close... I think this is what AH is simulating.

What I'm wondering is what they will do if they add the D9, in real life you could easily identify its long nose and longer tail. Should be "D9" ? Is the icon name limited to 3 digits?

 Nath, I might buy that, if there were ANY variants of Japanese AC.

 Not to mention the 202/205 thing. I dont get that at all.
