 :rofl Funny how everyone was saying he would get the ban hammer, but they in-turn, got the ruling. :rofl


As for the Do-217, YES PLEASE!  Toss in the Do-17z while you are at it. :D  In all fairness though, the Italians and Russians are due for bombers.  So add the 217 and 17z after they have received 2 bombers each. :aok
