I've never felt that an article with zero text makes a case for anything, especially when half of it is on topic and the other half is cheesecake. But, that's just me.

How can only make an argument to add a plane that didn't see any action or operational service during WW2?

did you see the case for it.... and it did fly over europe before wars end and might have even fired its guns at something...and it defiantly flew over Europe before the VJ day as that does make it a squadron strength plane that flew during ww2.

1) Only 4 were sent to the ETO for testing, 2 found its way to England and the other two to Italy
2) The prototypes sent to Europe were soon grounded after one of the demontration pilots died in a crash while demonstrating the P-80 in England
3) The P-80 did not serve in any combat theater during World War II in squadron strength (refer to point #1)
4) The P-80 never fired its guns at an enemy combatant during World War II

Meteor, He-162 are probably the only jets that has a chance of being added. Less so on the Heinkel.

So, you want HTC to add the P-80 because you like hot chicks, ugly airplanes, fake boobs, and bad photoshop.

It flew over Europe before Victory over Japan im not sure im following the arguement for its inclusion? :headscratch:

I think you will need a somewhat more filled out "case".

Regards.

4) i only said fired its guns while ww2 was still going on over europe. i know it shot down nothing in ww2 and never even saw an enemy fight (cough cough meteor).
3) has not a night fight squadron consisted of a plane or two. (footnote night fighters of the pacific. some squadrons on cvs were as small as 2 plane because of lack of nightfight equipted planes). so a "jet fighter like the p-80 could at that time be a squadron with only 2 planes. im sure if you you found refs. the 4 that went to EU were part of a squadron.
2) they did fly be for that and thats still a flight.
1) see "3)"
0) if you saw the link you would know i was J/K :) its just a gallery of p-80s and chicks from a web site AH put an add on last week. I really would only want to see the p-80 and the Meteor in the ww1 arena.

sorry i know this might not qualify for GD but who reads the Oclub.

I saw only 1 pair of fake bewbs in there.  Otherwise, there are some very fine looking women in that series of photos.   :D   I dont think the F80 is ugly, but it certainly does not meet the requirements set by HTC to have a slot set aside for it in their line up.   However, if there would have put up a photo of the Meteor Mk III, then SURE THING!  :aok
