Was just thinking yesterday that I had not seen this on the wish list lately.

How's that for a bone?

Well, I was hoping for the B29, A26, Yak3, SpitXII, Ki-84 Ib, but this flying death trap looks like much more fun. :O

Ohh, it has been noted on our Secret Forums, where we plan all our evil schemes to take over the world of AH2  :rock

So, propably half of the Finns are now looking for those specs, and the other half is still shell shocked and canīt believe what they are reading from the boards.

That is the only difference between S.A.P.P. and the Finns.  The Finns do a better job of keeping it a secret.

Are you trying to say we fly like SAPP-people? :mad:

ROFL! 

I was actually commenting on how stealthy the Finns are.

Finns arent stealthy, they're just impossible to understand.

Hope we get an F4F-3. Lumping it in with the -4 as a gun package difference is incorrect (-3 was lighter, larger fuel tanks, no folding wings, to start).

No no, thats just because we have this super secret scrambled code.
You know, we have to keep our evil plans to ourselves ?
Too bad our code language is leaking, ive heard of a few favorite terms of ours have managed to get into HTC profanity filter  :devil

Ackack, You SAPP folks cant possibly be as stealthy as we are... i mean you are littering the runways with twin engined airframes... or what ever is left of them at the moment.
We Finns just kill all while drinking beer, and auger when pass out. Also impulsive nudity tend to increase with correlation to booze digested.  :salute

True, but it is also true that there is a possible Lancaster update with this.  The F4F/FM2 is not related to the B-239.

But their plan isn't nefarious like ours, nor do they have a Grand Exhalted Leader like we do  ;)

One thing I will admit that you guys do a heck of a lot better than the SAPP guys is making flak panzer oil.  When I was at the '98 WB Con, some of the Finns that came shared some of their flak panzer oil with me and the little bit I remember afterwards was helping move a really heavy pool table from one of the hotel bars into the War Room where we played Crud until we got busted by hotel management.

Ever since then I have always appreciated the Finns <S>

From my understanding the finns considered the buffalo to be a gentlemans plane whilst their other main fighter the bf 109 was considered a cold blooded Killer. Good thing they didn't have Flak Panzer Oil when they were fighting the russians.

Well, I'm glad that the Finns are happy about this  :aok



However, I am slightly disappointed that the results of the vote that was held have been disregarded (B-25, P-39 then A-26).

Anyway, maybe I'll wind up loving this new plane  ;)

During the war up here for example pilots Hans Wind 39kills and Ilmari juutilainen 36kills in Brewsters.
Lentolaivue 24 was the most successful user of Brewsters with total of 460 kills.
It served until was replaced by 109's.

WTG, you have been touched by the mighty FPO. <S>
Btw, you are most welcomed to join us in next AH Spring Meet, and maybe get a memory or two more about the Finns and FPO  :devil

The vote was for the next addition.  Nothing more.  Yes, the P-39 came next and the fact that it was less than 1% behind the B-25 may have been a significant factor, but don't put any stock in the vote to determine what is to come.  If you get the A-26 it will be independent of the vote.

You could almost say it was a tie and HTC blessed us with both of the "1st place" vote getters.  No one ever said the next on the list was the next plane to be introduced. 

We voted on the next plane not the order, or even possibility, of new planes being introduced.
