Title: The bomber that you know we all really want....
Post by: B-Town on June 18, 2000, 04:33:00 AM

IS this not the bomber that you all really want. Forget all the others you know that any one of you would give your right arm to fly one of these things across the SEA on a sunday afternoon   (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)

Ummm we want a KB-29P tanker?

I guess that would be fun if we had some F-84's to  refuel.  But I don't think any of the AH planes have the proper receptacle for the refueling boom.   (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)

Yeah, I love the B-29, but hey, check out the B-29 sitting next to the Convair B-36!!  Now, I thought the B-29 was big....   (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

"Stratobuff" B17's, now ya want something that goes higher? Look if ya wanna bomb targets without meeting opposition, just do it offline, I garoontee y'all will have a smooth run ta target (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)
Personally, I'd like ta see a TB-3 with 2 self defense I-16's hanging under the wings,

Airspro - My dad was working at WPAFB when they built the museum hangar, and apparently they built the hangar AROUND the B-36!

Last time I was there, we walked under the B-36 and were looking up into the bomb bay, marveling at how huge it was.  Then we realized we were in the middle of 3 bomb bay sections.  You could fit a Greyhound bus in the bomb bay.  Of course some of those H-bombs were the size of a Volkswagen LOL!

There aren't enough Russian aircraft in this game, how about this one?

Juzz isn't that the Russian copy of the B-29 (can't remember the designation)?

The one where they literally copied it down to the exact rivet patterns?
