Title: New FSO events.
Post by: oakranger on June 02, 2009, 05:07:00 PM

Now that we will be getting the Brewster, could we be seeing new FSO events occurring in Scandinavia region?

Yea, that and Cruel Sea: Norway 44.  But surly there is other events that can be made.

The thing that is really tough though is that we don't have any early war Russian Fighters or Bombers. So Trying to setup an early Finnish War event would be tough. But who knows.

Also I am hoping they provide a non-Finnish version at the same time and give us a Pacific version. That would work for Rangoon and Midway where we have the A6M2 to compete against.

The Finns didn't fight in Norway. I'm sure you'll see the Brewster added to setups where it should be and possibly new setups
involving the Finns Brewster like you saw happen with the P-39. I hope the US Navy Brewster F2 version is also included in this. It's
needed for Midway. I'm not sure what version of the Brewster the Dutch and RAF flew against the Japanese but new or modified setups
using it would be a nice addition too. That little plane got around a bit in the early days.  :aok

Yep,

Keep modeling the early birds for events.  :aok  More early Russian and Japanese rides are desperately needed.

I think the British and Dutch exports were more or less the same F2A-3 the Marines at Midway flew.

Yea, i was thinking about what we have for early war A/C for Russian/Germany and so on.
