it would be no match for the planes here, though I would LOVE to see it and the P-39

Both would be quite useful in scenarios. Also add: Hurricane, Bf 110, Mosquito, B-25.

I think the "hotrod" P-40N-1 might suprise quite a few unwary dweebs in the MA.  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)

they would be good and useful assuming the perk point system works as said, they would be good point grabbers.

Also the P-38D (4 .50's  +37 mm cannon or 2 .50's + 2 .303's and a 37mm cannon muahaha)

Or the P-40Q

It is one of my fav "not built for prime time" aircraft :-)
It would make for a fine
mid-high speed furball aircraft.

You could also make the "axi-wobbles" sh... er...make them upset by including the P-51G
with the 14SM engine.

20,000 feet in 3.4min, 495mph at 22,800 feet :-)

For this, I'll take a light four .50 gun package.

Yes yes ! Bf 110 G-2 would be nice add.

O.K., the Curtis fighter I would like to see the most is the "parts" model built for the A.V.G.
Low production, but they did see combat. And if modeled as per the real airframe weight
(250lbs ? lighter) and engine HP
(1,200-1,300hp), an eye opener for those who are not careful.  

The A.V.G. aircraft topped out at 365-70mph in level flight, as compared to 351 for the P-40B.

At least it would turn better, and have more firepower than the MC.202!  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif)
